About Idol
"Idol" is a song by Japanese duo Yoasobi from their third EP, The Book 3 (2023). It was released as a single on April 12, 2023, through Sony Music Entertainment Japan. The song served as the opening theme to the first season of the 2023 Japanese anime series Oshi no Ko. A bubblegum pop, trap, and gothic track, one half of the duo Ayase wrote "Idol", based on Aka Akasaka's short story 45510. The lyrics depict the two-faced nature of a star in the Japanese idol industry, delineating multiple perspectives on the anime's central character, the idol Ai Hoshino, namely those of her fans and media, her fellow groupmates, and herself. It additionally features shouts by B-boy group Real Akiba Boyz and gospel-like background vocals.
