TXT Japan 5th Single – Setsuna Hanabi (2026)

TXT Japan 5th Single – Setsuna Hanabi was digitally released on Monday, August 17, 2026, at 12 AM JST, featuring the title track “Setsuna Hanabi.”

Setsuna Hanabi captures the fleeting beauty and intensity of summer, moving between the excitement of the season and the emotions that surface as it begins to disappear. Its central imagery compares summer to a luminous companion who arrives for only a short time, leaving behind vivid memories before eventually fading like fireworks that burn brightly for a moment and vanish.

Across four tracks, the single explores different sides of that season, from an approaching farewell and quiet emotional comfort to the desire to hold onto a particular summer moment. The Sparks concept emphasizes summer’s brief but intense presence, while Bloom focuses on its vivid colors, warmth, and overflowing sense of life.

Track Highlights

1. Setsuna Hanabi (Title Track)

“Setsuna Hanabi” is a Brazilian funk track driven by powerful synthesizers, rhythmic production, and raw-textured sounds. TXT’s expressive vocals add emotional weight to its intense energy as the lyrics compare an unavoidable farewell to fireworks disappearing at the end of a midsummer night. Even as the relationship moves toward its conclusion, the song holds onto the quiet wish that the moment could continue rather than disappear.

2. Silence

“Silence” is a 6/8 rock ballad that combines emotionally charged vocals with powerful guitar. The arrangement gradually intensifies toward a chorus that feels like an open cry, reflecting the growing emotional weight of the song. Its message centers on the value of someone who brings peace and comfort, finding warmth and beauty even in moments when nothing needs to be said.

3. Nice to Meet Ya

“Nice to Meet Ya” is an up-tempo pop rock track built around lively drums and refreshing guitar sounds. Its bright instrumental energy is reinforced by the members’ dynamic and harmonious vocals, particularly in the closing outro. The lyrics express the desire to meet the same person from this summer, this day, and this exact moment again and again, preserving the excitement of a memory before it passes.

4. Setsuna Hanabi (Natsuyoi Ver.)

“Setsuna Hanabi (Natsuyoi Ver.)” reinterprets the title track through a more minimal arrangement centered on acoustic guitar and plucked sounds. By stripping back the original production, the version brings TXT’s voices and melody into greater focus while retaining the emotional depth of the song. Its softer sound reflects the atmosphere of a summer night, presenting the title track’s fleeting memories and approaching farewell from a quieter perspective.
