They released their debut J-rock-leaning single, "Count on Me," with "Tsukiyo ni terasare" (æå¤ã«ç

That year, Novelbright found themselves in the spotlight after an acoustic performance of their 2018 rock tune "Walking with You" earned the approval of TikTok users and became a national hit. That same year, they were named among the Top 20 Artists of the Year at the Tower Recomen Awards and in 2020 upgraded their repertoire to include a full-length debut album. Wonderland was released in May 2020, and later that year Novelbright won the New Artist Award at the 62nd Japan Record Award ceremony, alongside three other artists.
