NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen
NHK (Japan's national public broadcasting corporation) recently announced the list of the 50 artists for the 60th Kouhaku Uta Gassen. Kouhaku Uta Gassen (literally means, "Red and White Song Battle") is a popular annual Japanese music show broadcasted on New Year’s Eve. It draws a large audience every year. Although TV viewership of Kouhaku has been going down in recent years, performing on Kouhaku is said to be a huge honor and big highlight in a singer's career.
When I was a child, I used to enjoy watching it with my family. It is a long standing New Year's Eve tradition for many Japanese families. When I watched it, I always felt deep emotion that the year is almost over.
