TAGRIGHT, a 7-member boy group born from the boy group formation project "TAG SEARCH," announced today, April 30 (Thursday), during a YouTube live broadcast titled "TAGRIGHT Emergency Live Stream," that they will release their debut single (title yet to be determined) on Wednesday, July 15, 2026.
■ Long-awaited Debut
TAGRIGHT, consisting of Tomoki Nishiyama, Daisuke Maeda, Daigo Kobayashi, Kairi Imai, Shion Kishinami, Sema Wakamatsu, and Jay, met through the "TAG SEARCH" boy group formation project. Each member comes from a different background, having faced various setbacks, but they united with a "common dream." They released their pre-debut single "FOREVER BLUE" in January 2026. Since then, they have honed their expressive skills through releases and events, walking alongside their fans. Now, with their journey and feelings in their hearts, they stand at a new starting line: their "debut."
■ Debut Song to Symbolize the "Beginning" of a Story
The title of the debut single will be announced later. This work is composed by "UTA," one of the composers of "Hanakotoba." It is a song that symbolizes the "beginning" of their story, created by a creator who has watched the members' journey since the early stages of the project.
■ Special Events & Mini-Lives to be Held for Debut!
As the first round of special events, four venues for June were announced during the program. Details on how to participate in the events will be released on the official TAGRIGHT website on Friday, May 1, at 8:00 PM, so be sure to check it out.

【TAGRIGHT Profile】
Tomoki Nishiyama and Daisuke Maeda, who garnered attention as candidates in the audition program "timelesz project-AUDITION-" to recruit additional members for timelesz, launched the boy group formation project "TAG SEARCH" in the summer of 2025. "TAG SEARCH" does not involve member selection through auditions. Nishiyama and Maeda themselves scouted shining talents through music scenes and social media, conducted interviews, gathered new member candidates, and went through songwriting, choreography, vocal/dance training, and training camps, leading to the final member selection. This process was broadcast as a 6-episode documentary program titled "TAGRIGHT: The Last Challenge of Men Who Faced Setbacks" within NTV's "Shuichi," and the final members were announced live. On January 7, 2026, they held a showcase event in Tokyo for 4 days and 6 performances, and released their pre-debut single "FOREVER BLUE" on the same day. In April, they released their pre-debut EP "SERCHRIGHT."
