Clear Asahi 'Let's clear the summer!' 30-second version

It’s a very summery commercial showing Riho Yoshioka and Takumi Kitamura grilling corn over charcoal! For some reason, the charcoal on Kitamura’s side isn’t as strong, so he can’t grill it well, and when he tries to switch places, Yoshioka cheerfully refuses—making their sweet interaction utterly charming.

In the final part of the ad, they’re shown enjoying Clear Asahi with perfectly grilled corn, creating a commercial that captures the essence of summer better than anything.
