It features the group's frequent collaborators such as Jung Ho-hyun, 1by1, Nmore, and Poptime, and first collaboration EDM artist Asher Postman. The EP single also includes the Japan Record Excellent Work Award winner "Trigger" [2] as well as "We Good" and "Romance", theme songs of television series Our Little Love Story  [ ja ] and Blue Birthday, starring members Syoya Kimata and Shion Tsurubo, respectively.

To promote the EP single, JO1 performed "Tiger" at the Hanshin Tigers vs. Hiroshima Toyo Carp match in Hanshin Koshien Stadium and did several international live performances, such as KCON in Thailand and Dream Concert in South Korea. Tropical Night marked JO1's seventh consecutive number-one single on Oricon chart, with "Tiger" topped the Billboard Japan Hot 100 and became the group's first appearance on Billboard's Hot Trending Songs.

Background and release

Twelve days after making their debut performance on the NHK's annual New Year's eve musical show Kōhaku Uta Gassen, [3] [4] JO1 announced that they would release a new digital song "We Good" as the theme song of the television series Our Little Love Story  [ ja ], starring member Syoya Kimata, on January 19, 2023.

[7] On February 15, JO1 announced that their next EP single, Tropical Night, was slated to be released on April 5, 2023. The theme of the EP single is "the passion of pursuing a goal; the beauty of the youths who are passionately chasing after something". Its title was taken from the eponymous weather event and meant to capture an image of "dull night", which "comes as the aftermath of putting all of yourself into a work and feeling the pain and loss that hits when that work is done".

The two limited editions each features four tracks and comes with a DVD bundle consisting a variety segment.
