“BANG!“ TEMPEST debuts in Japan
Barely a month after the release of their latest mini-album Voyage in Korea, TEMPEST is heading towards Japan. The boys, full of energy, drop anchor determined to make noise on the archipelago with their title song "BANG!"
With a promising pre-debut of the catchy single “Baddest Behavior” released on January 31, their Japanese debut EP BANG! was released on April 10. Very quickly after the release, "Baddest Behavior" entered the top 5 of the top 100 of LINE Music, Japan's largest music site, and was ranked first on the Vietnam iTunes K-pop daily chart. It's actually the song from the anime Great Mission on the Run which will be broadcast on Fuji TV. This title has a dynamic rap and its deep style delivers the message of perseverance in the face of adversity. In the video clip, the boys perform in an electrifying environment demonstrating their vocals and their expressive performances, giving off a strong energy revealing the power of TEMPEST.
The album is composed of six songs including the Japanese versions of "Dangerous," "Can't Stop Shining" and "Only One Day," songs that the members selected themselves for their fans. To demonstrate their popularity in Japan, TEMPEST will appear in the Nippon TV show Buzz Rhythm02.
