Round 7: Tossup 5
On Good Morning America, one of this song’s writers showcased the voice notes she made coming up with its melody in a taxi. In 2026, this song’s performers debuted an orchestral rearrangement on Jimmy Kimmel Live titled its “Glowin’ Version.” Sanae Takaichi led a drum duet of this song and “Dynamite” by BTS at a diplomatic summit with (*) Lee Myung-Jae. Bronchitis forced this song to be lowered a full step for its 2025 live debut, a change kept to avoid vocal strain on EJAE from an A5 belt on the line “I'm done hidin', now I'm shinin'/like I'm born to be.” For 10 points, what song from K-Pop Demon Hunters is named for the color that would seal the Honmoon? ■END■
