Fuji TV's 'MUSIC FAIR' Trends on Social Media Following Stunning Performances by GENERATIONS and KO1KEYZ

Following the broadcast of Fuji TV's long-running music show “MUSIC FAIR,” related keywords surged into trending topics on X (formerly Twitter), creating massive buzz online. The latest episode featured popular dance and vocal group GENERATIONS alongside the pre-debut group KO1KEYZ, whose dynamic performances and fresh presence instantly captivated fans.

Viewers took to social media with glowing praise, leaving comments such as “The camerawork was phenomenal; it captured all the facial expressions and close-ups we wanted to see,” and “It was practically all live vocals, and everyone sounded so incredibly stable.” Many viewers were also charmed by the artists' endearing reactions during the interview segment and expressed excitement over seeing the different performers interact on stage.

At the same time, the broadcast stirred mixed reactions regarding accessibility, with comments highlighting regional broadcasting limitations and the lack of catch-up streaming. Fans shared sentiments like, “It doesn't air in my region so I couldn't watch it,” “I panicked thinking I forgot to set the DVR, but it recorded safely,” and “Since there is no catch-up streaming, recording it is an absolute must.” By showcasing each performer's talents to the fullest, this episode clearly left a powerful impression on audiences across Japan.

The Context

“MUSIC FAIR” is a legendary Japanese music television program produced by Fuji TV, on the air continuously since 1964, making it one of the longest-running weekly music shows in the world. Unlike many contemporary TV programs in Japan that offer on-demand replay services such as TVer, “MUSIC FAIR” typically does not provide official online catch-up streaming and is broadcast only across a limited network of regional affiliate stations. As a result, fans often regard setting a home recorder as essential viewing preparation, adding to the intense online chatter whenever anticipated acts like GENERATIONS from EXILE TRIBE appear.
