Bansanka
2023 single by Tuki
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Bansanka" (晩餐歌; lit. 'supper song' or 'dinner song') is the debut single by Japanese singer-songwriter Tuki from her debut studio album 15 (2025). It was released independently through her label the Lunar Landing Plan on September 29, 2023. In January 2024, the song topped the Oricon Combined Singles Chart and Billboard Japan Hot 100.[1][2]
Background and release
Tuki began posting her cover and original songs on TikTok while in middle school. "Bansanka" was first uploaded onto TikTok on July 7, 2023. The acoustic version of the song was uploaded to YouTube on September 13, and the duet version with singer-songwriter Yuuri on November 6.[3]
"Bansanka" was inspired after her father mentioned "There are about 30,000 days in a lifetime". Reflecting on that, she thought "I've already lived 5,000 days and only have about 25,000 more".[4]
Live performances
Tuki debuted the performance of "Bansanka" on Buzz Rhythm alongside "Inferno Love Letter" on April 20, 2024,[5] and performed on the 75th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen on December 31.[6]
