"Utsuroi" (移ろい, "Changing") (stylized UTSUROI) is the 49th Japanese CD single by South Korean pop duo Tohoshinki, first digitally released by Avex Trax on July 31, 2022, and then as a CD single on August 17, 2022. "Utsuroi" was released in three physical versions – a standard CD only version, a limited photobook edition, and a fanclub edition released exclusively for Tohoshinki's Japanese fan club, Bigeast. Promoted as a summer single, "Utsuroi" is described as a medium-tempo ballad song reminiscent of Japanese city pop, accompanied by a vocal harmony. Lyrically, the song is about cherishing one's closest friends, and to strive towards a better future together.
"Utsuroi" debuted at number two on the Oricon Singles Chart and number thirty-two on the Billboard Japan Hot 100.
