After the war, the songs during the war have been regarded as a taboo even in Japan despite those historical importance. One of war songs, , composed by Isao Hayashi, went on to become a theme of Japanese right-wing groups called "uyoku dantai". Li Xianglan's "Suzhou Nocturne", composed by Hattori, has remained controversial in China, though it was a non-propaganda song. After the war, Taro Shoji, who heard the Gyokuon-hōsō in Nagano Prefecture, was once banned from singing many of his songs because those were regarded as nationalistic. "Rōkyoku" faded into the wallpaper with the spread of television in the postwar period. In 1946, NHK revived their music program as "Radio Kayō" and it was later reformed as "Minna no Uta", but NHK was disinclined to mention its former history.
