It has been announced that WOWOW will feature singer GACKT from February 2025 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his solo debut. The network will broadcast and stream the latest performances of YELLOW FRIED CHICKENz, the rock band led by GACKT, who resumed activities this year after a 12-year hiatus.
The band was formed in 2010 at the invitation of GACKT and went on a world tour, but stopped performing after their performance at the Nippon Budokan in 2012. This year, they announced that they would be reuniting with new members for a limited period of five years. In November, they performed at the music festival "Kishidan Banpaku 2024 ~Shin Kishidan Banpaku~".
WOWOW will broadcast and stream the "Kishidan Expo 2024" in February. In March, cameras will go backstage at "Kishidan Expo 2024" to broadcast and stream a special program capturing the interaction between the performers. Also in March, WOWOW will exclusively broadcast and stream the Christmas live performance by YELLOW FRIED CHICKENz to be held at Zepp Haneda (Ota-ku, Tokyo) on December 25th.
In April, a program titled "GACKT 25TH ANNIVERSARY LIVE SELECTION" will be broadcast, featuring live footage selected by GACKT himself along with an exclusive interview. It will be a program that allows viewers to enjoy the charms of "GACKT the performer."
In May, all of GACKT's music videos will be broadcast in one go, along with an exclusive interview.
