This is a commercial that introduces McDonald’s new product, “Otona no Gotouchi Teriyaki,” with a sophisticated, adult mood.

In the exchange between Joe Odagiri and Kumiko Aso inside a truck, the swaying emotions of budding romance are contrasted with the sweet-and-savory flavor of teriyaki.

The parody of the song “Otoko to Onna no Love Game” is also a highlight, clearly conveying the push-and-pull of a mature love affair.

[Official] Uru “Kokoroe” – Theme song for Fuji TV’s Monday 9 p.m. drama “Kazama Kojin: Kyojo 0”
guidelinesUru

This is a commercial intended to raise awareness of the audio streaming service Spotify through the drama “Kazama Kojin: Kyōjō 0.” The story features Spotify appearing within scenes from the show, highlighting that you can listen to a wide variety of music and that playlists make it easy to recommend songs to others.

The awkward yet earnest way the characters recommend music, and the depiction of being moved by the sound coming through the earphones, are unique touches.

Another key point is that the song playing is “Kokoroe” by Uru, which is also the main theme of “Kazama Kojin: Kyōjō 0”; by displaying the lyrics as text, the message of the song comes through clearly.

It’s also striking how an epic-sounding track is introduced against the backdrop of a comedic drama scene.
