P-pop powerhouse SB19 is set to make their debut on Japanese television, appearing on the morning show DayDay. on Thursday, August 13, 2026, to perform their latest single, Lawless, ahead of their Summer Sonic festival performances in Osaka and Tokyo.
The group has arrived in Japan following a schedule of international appearances, which included a historic set at Lollapalooza in the United States. Fans eager to see the P-pop kings on screen can catch their studio live performance on the popular entertainment and information talk show airing weekdays at Nippon Television, as reported by Gmanetwork.

The morning broadcast marks a milestone for the group as they expand their presence across Japanese media. Reflecting on the upcoming broadcast, Justin shared the group’s enthusiasm in a video posted by the show on X.

Following their studio appearance, the group heads into the festival circuit. On Friday, they will take the Massive Stage in Osaka for their Summer Sonic debut, followed by a performance on the Pacific Stage in Tokyo on Saturday.
Engaging Fans Across Yokohama and Tokyo
Beyond television screens and festival stages, the group is rolling out dedicated fan experiences for their community across Japan. Supporters looking to purchase memorabilia can visit the Wakas at Simula: The Pop-Up Store located at the Tower Records Shibuya Store, which remains open through August 18. Additionally, an SB19-themed vending machine will be set up at the Yokohama Station on August 17 and 18, aligning with their upcoming I WaS There Thanksgiving Fan Meet scheduled in Yokohama on August 18.
Building on a Growing Japanese Media Footprint
This week’s television milestone builds on the group’s previous breakthroughs in Japanese media, adding to a trajectory that has seen them connect with international audiences. Notably, the group previously made history as the first Southeast Asian group and first Filipino to be invited in the influential music media outlet The First Take, where they delivered a performance of their hit Gento, as detailed by philstar.com. That performance sparked global online engagement, propelling hashtags into the top trends list in the Philippines, Japan, and worldwide.
