The latest K-POP artist to come to Japan is the hotly anticipated newcomer group, B1A4. Their first single, “Beautiful Target” will be released in Japan on June 26 and is being eagerly awaited for. They have decided to make their first appearance in Japan on NHK’s “MUSIC JAPAN.” It will be airing on June 15 at 1:30am. With their cute looks, cut-above singing abilities, charming and excellent performances, musicianship through their self-written and composed songs, and incredibly high potential, their performance is not to be missed.

Since opening “Official Fanclub ‘BANA JAPAN’” they have gained nearly 8,000 members across Japan and every performance has been a massive success. And after announcing their Japanese debut in front of their fans, leader Jinyoung said “We will get the #1 on Oricon,” and Baro declared, “I want to perform a solo concert at [Tokyo] Budokan!” to the cheers of fans. This year they will be creating a whirlwind throughout the country.

The boys have re-recorded their song, “Beautiful Target” in Japanese, which was originally released last year in Korea. The coupling song will be the same song released in Korea, “Chu Chu Chu” as well as the Jinyoung-composed and written “Bling Girl” (only available on the limited B-version of the single) in Japanese. An original Japanese song, “Ready to go” (only available on the regular edition) has also been included. They haven’t just challenged recording in Japanese, but also creating the rap, etc. Three versions will be available for purchase (Limited editions A and B and a regular edition). To commemorate their debut single’s release, they will be holding concerts over two days (6/30 and 7/1).
