K-pop sensation TREASURE is once again proving its international star power, this time by dominating the stage at Japan's prestigious ‘2025 FNS Song Festival Summer’. Held live on July 2 and broadcast on Fuji TV, the event marked a triumphant return for the YG Entertainment group, delivering high-energy performances that captivated millions across the nation.

TREASURE's dynamic appearance wasn't limited to the main show. They continued the excitement on ‘Weekly Nainai Music’, further cementing their presence as top-tier performers in Japan’s competitive entertainment landscape. Their stunning cover of BIGBANG’s legendary hit “FANTASTIC BABY” was a masterclass in stage dominance, combining sharp choreography, slick visuals, and a powerful blend of rap and vocals. Fans erupted in praise both online and offline, making the segment a trending topic on Japanese social media platforms.

The performance was more than just a tribute—it was a statement. TREASURE skillfully channeled YG’s signature hip-hop charisma, bringing fresh flair to a nostalgic classic. Their presence in the medley segment, which highlights Japan’s most beloved hits, underscores their growing influence in the Japanese music market.

Later in the night, the group unveiled their softer, more melodic side with a touching rendition of “SARURU” from their special mini-album [PLEASURE]. The track, which has gained momentum across Japan, especially after ranking among Billboard Japan’s Top 20 Album Sales for the First Half of 2025, was a heartfelt moment for viewers watching from home. With breezy vocals and uplifting choreography, TREASURE delivered what fans described as a "healing stage" that perfectly complemented Japan’s summer vibes.

TREASURE’s dual-stage appearance showcased not only their versatility but also their dedication to connecting with global audiences. The group’s ability to balance intensity and warmth within a single broadcast highlights their rapidly maturing artistry and cross-border appeal.

The momentum doesn’t stop here. TREASURE is slated to appear at the upcoming ‘2025 Show! Music Core in JAPAN’ at the Saitama Belluna Dome on July 5, followed by a performance at ‘Summer Sonic 2025’ in Osaka’s Expo 70 Memorial Park on August 16. As anticipation builds, their continued engagement with Japanese fans reinforces their position as one of the most exciting K-pop groups on the international scene.

With their consistent rise on the global charts and standout performances in major Japanese festivals, TREASURE is heating up the islands—and they’re just getting started.
