Singer-songwriter Kazumasa Oda has been selected to sing the theme song for Fuji TV's upcoming drama series "First Kiss," which stars young actress Mao Inoue.
The last time Oda sang a theme song for a "Getsu 9" series was in 1991, for the highly-rated drama "Tokyo Love Story." His song, "Love Story wa Totsuzen ni," was an amazing hit, selling over 2.8 million copies (it was a double A-side with "Oh! Yeah!"). This feat helped establish the popularity of using "trendy dramas" as a means of selling singles.
The "First Kiss" theme, whose title has not yet been announced, is scheduled to go on sale on August 15.
