The title track, ‘Lucky,’ is a contemporary R&B song with a groovy rhythm that draws inspiration from the early 2000s. The mini-single features a total of six tracks, showcasing the group’s versatility. In addition to ‘Lucky,’ the album includes Japanese versions of their popular Korean hits: ‘Sticky,’ ‘Midas Touch,’ and ‘Shhh.’ This new album also features exciting collaborations, with ‘Nobody Knows (Remix)’ featuring DJ me-mai and ‘R.E.M (Remix)’ produced with DJ SO-SO, which adds fresh electronic elements to the original song.

From Domestic Success to Global Ambition

Debuting in 2023 under S2 Entertainment, KISS OF LIFE has spent the last two years solidifying their status in the domestic music industry.

The Strategic Importance of the Japanese Debut

The release of ‘TOKYO MISSION START’ is more than just a new album; it represents a strategic first move in KISS OF LIFE’s plan for global activity.
