We theoretically predict a novel oscillation that will be observed during the dynamical processes of one-dimensional electronic photoinduced phase transitions. This oscillation is considered to be a breathing mode of a quantum domain of a photoinduced phase in the background of the initial phase. When the initial phase is sufficiently stable, being far apart from the phase boundary, the domain feels a constant attractive force depending on its size or the distance between the two domain walls. This fact allows an interpretation that this oscillation is essentially the same as a so-called Bloch oscillation seen for the Stark ladder.
