Here in Japan, it also became famous on TikTok with the #KiraKiraDance.

Riding on a light, energetic sound, the chorus that repeats the title is so catchy you remember it instantly.

I think it’s perfect for those who love sounds typified by synthwave.

I remember it being used a lot on social media and in challenge videos.

His tracks have been consistently blowing up on TikTok, and this song is among his biggest hits.
