This is the commercial for Kao’s Attack ZERO and Wide Haiter, titled “Real Hero: Cleansing Powder – Thoroughly Sanitizing Laundry.” The CM song is a parody of the well-known children’s tune “Musunde Hiraite,” with lyrics rewritten about various aspects of doing laundry.

Since it’s a song even small children know, it’s likely kids will react when it plays on TV.
