Greens Free: Happy Non-Al Sato-san Version, 15 seconds

This commercial conveys, through Shiori Sato’s reflections on her memories, that with Greens Free you can enjoy a special taste even without alcohol.

It unfolds like looking back at memories through photographs, and her full-on smile—perfectly in step with Greens Free—really brings out the fun.

The song that further highlights the cheerful mood of the visuals is Billy Joel’s “Uptown Girl.” Its buoyant, light rhythm is striking, evoking a happy image of everyday life becoming more colorful and enjoyable.
