U-KISS is exploding in popularity in Japan.

U-KISS will be releasing their new Japanese single album 'Dear My Friend' on July 25. It has been 5 months since their last album, 'A Shared Dream' released in February. The album 'Dear My Friend' will include songs 'Dear My Friend' and 'Beautiful.’

The title track 'Dear My Friend' is a song focused on friendship, and it is a medium-tempo song. The song has been gaining popularity as it’s currently airing as the ending theme of the TV Tokyo animation ‘Arashi no Yoru ni Himitsu no Tomodachi.’ Also additional track ‘Beautiful’ is composed by member AJ and will be used as the CM song for Kinetsu Department store’s ‘Passe Bazaar’ CMs.

Aside from the new album release, U-KISS will also be holding additional performances for Japanese concert. Their first Japanese tour with their ‘A Shared Dream’ held in March was all sold out, and high demand of fans pleading for additional concert has prompted their agency to place additional performances. The tour will begin in Hiroshima, and it will go through 10 cities of Japan.

Already the performances in Osaka and Shibuya, Tokyo have been sold out.
