The Japanese TV drama "Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu" (Taiwanese title: The Full-Time Wife Escapist) became a hit in Japan. On the evening of December 20th, its final episode aired and remained widely discussed. The ending theme dance performed by the lead actors, Yuko Araki and Gen Hoshino, known as "Koi Dance" (Practice Dance), continues to spark a dance craze. With the festive seasons of Christmas and New Year approaching, even the Japanese and US embassies used this dance to express their holiday cheer, featuring Kumamon, the tourism ambassador of Kumamoto Prefecture in Kyushu, who also made an appearance. The video garnered over a million views within a day of its release, and visitors to Japan recently might want to experience this viral dance trend.
