The new version of 'SSS (Sending Secret Signals)' expresses various signals of love.
They are currently on a five-dome tour in Japan.
TOMORROW X TOGETHER is set to welcome the new year with a digital single in Japan. They will release 'SSS (Sending Secret Signals (feat. HYDE))' on January 26, 2026, featuring HYDE, a member of the renowned Japanese rock band L'Arc~en~Ciel. This track is a new version of 'SSS (Sending Secret Signals),' included in their third Japanese album 'Starkissed,' which was released last October. The song portrays the secret signals of love exchanged in a spy-like manner, and HYDE's involvement in writing and composing generated significant buzz upon the original's release. With his vocal contribution to the upcoming digital single, fans are anticipating a fresh charm. The announcement was made during the 'Countdown Japan 25/26' festival on December 30, where fans expressed their excitement. The members noted, 'This song was given to us by HYDE, so we hope for your great expectations.' Currently, they are successfully holding their fifth dome tour as part of the 'TOMORROW X TOGETHER WORLD TOUR,' with additional performances scheduled in Tokyo and Osaka in early 2026.
TOMORROW X TOGETHER is poised to strengthen their presence in the Japanese market with this digital single. Japan represents a unique and important market for K-pop artists, with their music and culture being embraced in diverse ways. Collaborating with HYDE could grant them access to new fan bases, enhancing their popularity.
Moreover, 'SSS (Sending Secret Signals)' merges lyrical elements with iconic themes from the spy genre, creating an intriguing composition. The combination of HYDE's distinct vocal style with TOMORROW X TOGETHER's harmonies is expected to showcase a fresh musical color. This shift has the potential to blur the lines between K-pop and rock.
Fans’ reactions are also noteworthy. Unlike past K-pop artists who faced challenges entering the Japanese market, contemporary K-pop has deeply integrated into Japan's popular culture. TOMORROW X TOGETHER is likely to leverage this trend to achieve even greater success through their collaboration with HYDE.
