Girl group NiziU will release a new EP titled “Paradise” on March 8, and its title track will be used as the theme song for the upcoming “Doraemon the Movie” set for release the same month.

The track “Paradise” was made by 3RACHA, the music production unit from boy band Stray Kids that consists of members Bangchan, Changbin and Han, according to JYP Entertainment on Saturday.

The song started being used as the ending song of the “Doraemon” television series since Saturday, ahead of the EP's release.

NiziU is a nine-member Japanese K-pop girl group co-produced by JYP Entertainment and Sony Music. It debuted in 2020 with EP “Step and a Step” and released its latest EP “Blue Moon” on Dec. 14.

The band recently finished its “NiziU Live with U 2022 'Light it Up'” Japanese tour series that began last August and ended last month. The tour included performances at Tokyo Dome and Osaka Dome, making NiziU the fastest girl group to hold a dome concert since debuting.
