Boy group "NAZE" to appear in drama next year will perform for the first time at TGC

NAZE, a seven-member boy group that will appear in DREAM STAGE, which will be broadcast on TBS's Friday drama slot (Fridays at 10pm) in January 2026, appeared at the fashion event "41st Mynavi Tokyo Girls Collection (TGC) 2025 AUTUMN/WINTER" held at Saitama Super Arena (Chuo Ward, Saitama City) on September 6th.

NAZE is a group formed as a joint project between TBS, the Korean entertainment company CJ ENM Japan, and the talent agency C9ENT. On this day, they held their memorable first performance on the TGC stage while also filming for the drama.

NAZE appeared as the opening act, performing their original song "Wanderlust," and greeted the audience with a lively "Nice to meet you, we are NAZE, nice to meet you!". When they introduced themselves, saying, "Today is actually our first time on stage!", they were greeted with warm applause from the audience.

Afterwards, they covered "Koi" (by Hoshino Gen), the theme song for the hit TBS drama "Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu" (2016), and performed a powerful "Koi Dance."

TGC is a fashion event that has been held twice a year since 2005, with the theme of "Bringing Japanese girl culture to the world." This time, actors Ayami Nakajo, Ayaka Miyoshi, Elaiza Ikeda, and Meru Nukumi will appear, as well as the five-member girl group ILLIT, who will be making their first appearance at TGC.
