HY writes new love ballad, insert song for Kei Inoo and Honoka Matsumoto double-starring drama "50-funkan no Koibito"
HY will be in charge of the insert song for the ABC TV and TV Asahi drama "50-funkan no Koibito."
"50-funkan no Koibito," which begins broadcasting on Jan. 18, is a romantic comedy double-starring Kei Inoo (Hey! Say! JUMP) and Honoka Matsumoto. Inoo plays Haru, an "eccentric handsome guy" whose only best friend is an AI, and Matsumoto plays Naho, a "steady woman" immersed in her work, depicting the mismatched romance between the two that does not go smoothly.
HY has produced numerous love songs such as "366-nichi," "AM11:00," and "NAO." For this project, Hideyuki Shinzato (Vo, G) has written a new love ballad titled "Swing Swing Heart" as an insert song, featuring a gentle melody and lyrics that resonate with the heart. Regarding the song, Shinzato commented, "I turned into a song the feelings one realizes and the swaying of the heart while falling in love, drawing closer and then moving apart."
Furthermore, it has been revealed that Yoshihiko Hakamada, Atsuko Sakurai, Katsuhiro Higo (Dachou Club), and Mariko Akama will also appear in "50-funkan no Koibito."
Hideyuki Shinzato (HY) comment
"Encounters happen suddenly. I am sure there will be a time when that moment comes for you as well. It is not necessarily just with people. I put into song the feelings one discovers and the swaying heart while falling in love, moving closer and then moving apart. Please enjoy this song along with the drama."
