Tonight, under the Sakura tree

Sakura Miyawaki: On Christmas, I appeared on a big Korean music show called Kayo Taejeon, which is called Gayo Daejeon in Japanese. But it was pre-recorded, so I had Christmas off. So recently, I was recommended to do something by a hairdresser.

Miyawaki Sakura: Yes, that's right. The comeback period (of IZ*ONE's Panorama) has ended. This time, the comeback week was really two weeks. But to be honest, we were supposed to have five music shows, but one was cancelled due to COVID, so we only had four.

Miyawaki Sakura: That's right, I said it before. I said I don't like Christmas. Umm, Yuri was doing a V LIVE on Christmas, right? I was playing a game at the time, and she gave me the cookies, the ones she finished, the next day.

Miyawaki Sakura: What did you think of this year's final "Tonight, Under the Sakura Tree" brought to you by IZ*ONE's Miyawaki Sakura? Well, 2020 was a year of sorts. I never got to meet WIZ*ONE in person, but... they made a comeback.

Listener mail: I'm about to take the university entrance exam, but when I think about the day of the exam, I don't feel confident. Saku-chan, do you ever feel nervous or anxious? How did you overcome it? Miyawaki Sakura: Ah, I did a play at school when I was in elementary school.

Listener email: I'm a 2nd year middle school student who loves IZ*ONE. I like Yena the most, but I also like the others, so I have trouble talking to them individually. I'm a middle school student, so I can't buy a lot of CDs, so I only buy one. Of course I want to talk to Yena, but if I talk to Saku-chan,

Listener mail: Is there anything you would like to get as a Christmas present, Saku-chan? Miyawaki Sakura: Ehh... I wonder... It's simple, I feel like a world without masks... (laughs) Seriously, I know that there's nothing I can do about it now.

Miyawaki Sakura: Well, I've been really into the song "SHOW ME THE MONEY" lately, and it's currently number one on the Korean music charts, and the lyrics are really good. To be honest, I didn't really understand rap until now.Well, I'm not sure about Korean.

Sakura Miyawaki: It's been almost a week since IZ*ONE's comeback with their 4th mini album "One-reeler/Act IV", and it's been nine days since the airing. Wow, they've made a comeback (laughs). Um, Korean idols are really like that when they make a comeback.

Sakura Miyawaki: In the comeback special "One-reeler Premiere," we also performed the sub-song "Sequence." Sequence is a really good song. A really good song. And I really like the dance. The dance is really...

Listener email: This may be sudden, but this comeback song "Panorama" is the best. I was especially impressed by the dance. As WIZ*ONE, I would like to express my gratitude to teacher Yeonjun who choreographed it. Miyawaki Sakura: The choreography this time was really different from the "Choi Da" choreography we had done up until now.

Sakura Miyawaki: One thing I want to say about the music video (Panorama) is that the theme of the video is "연결 (Yonggyeol)," which means "connected" in Japanese. For example, in the solo scene, I often see the pink curtains.

Listener email: Do you have any stories about the dance with Wonyoung? Miyawaki Sakura: (laughs) Ah, the part where it says "I'm so happy that everyone loves that dance with Wonyoung."

Listener mail: Did you take the album jacket outdoors? Please tell us about any fun stories you had. Sakura Miyawaki: That's right. The first jacket we shot this time was the first one we shot outdoors. I don't know where, but we went to the mountains.

Sakura Miyawaki: Well, I'd like to introduce what kind of songs are included in IZ*ONE's 4th mini album "One-reeler/Act IV". First of all, the song "Panorama" is the title and the lead song of this album.
