Congratulations! They finally made it!
Perfume will act in on of the prestigious annual TV show Kouhaku, on the New Year’s Eve by NHK.
The program is divided into two color groups, as the title itself says; Red and White Song Battle.
From Wikipedia:
(…) the program divides the most popular music artists of the year into competing teams of red and white. The “red” team or akagumi (赤組, 紅組) is composed of all female artists (or groups with female vocals), while the “white” team or shirogumi (白組) is all male (or groups with male vocals). The honor of performing on Kōhaku is strictly by invitation, so only the most successful J-Pop artists and enka singers can perform. In addition to the actual music performances, the costumes, hair-styles, makeup, dancing, and lighting are also important. Even today, a performance on Kōhaku is said to be a big highlight in a singer’s career because of the show’s large reach.
