TOMORROW X TOGETHER has conquered Japan. Their new release soared to the top of the Oricon chart immediately upon release.

According to the latest Oricon chart (as of the 2nd), TOMORROW X TOGETHER clinched the top spot on the 'Daily Singles Ranking' with their new Japanese single 'CHIKAI.'

They have set a new personal record. On the first day of album release, 300,982 copies were sold, surpassing their Japanese single from 2022, 'Good Boy Gone Bad,' which sold 270,000 copies.

'CHIKAI' is an album that promises 'we will be together forever' despite all changes. It includes two new songs and a Japanese version of 'Deja Vu.'

The title track is 'We'll Never Change,' a lyrical mid-tempo ballad. Its poignant vocals and acoustic guitar amplify the emotional depth.

The music video is also gaining popularity. It visualizes the exuberance of youth and has received rave reviews. The video has claimed the top spot on the LINE Music Music Video Chart.

TOMORROW X TOGETHER is focusing on activities in Japan following the release of their single. On the 3rd, they showcased their new song on Fuji TV's '2024 FNS Summer Music Festival.'

They are set to shine on more music programs. They will appear on NTV's 'The Music Day 2024' on the 6th, TBS's 'Ongaku no Hi 2024' on the 13th, and Fuji TV's 'Mezamashi Live' on the 12th of next month.

They are also preparing for their first Japan Dome tour, 'ACT: PROMISE IN JAPAN.' They will perform at Tokyo Dome, Kyocera Dome Osaka, Vantelin Dome Nagoya, and Mizuho PayPay Dome.

This marks the shortest period (1955 days) for a Korean artist to perform at all four major domes in Japan since their debut. Starting with Tokyo Dome on the 10th and 11th, they will hold a total of 8 concerts in 4 cities.
