Bluem of Youth (Russian: Цветы юности) is a Japanese pop duo that became famous in the late 1990s after the reality show Susunu! Denpa Shōnen. The name blends "bloom of youth" and "blue." The members are Yuji Bessho and Hiroyuki Matsugashita. They went on permanent hiatus on December 31, 2002, but had a 10th anniversary concert in 2005. In 1999 they traveled across Russia by the Trans-Siberian Railway for seven months for the same TV program. Their career faded due to poor sales and their contract with their record label was not renewed.
