In Suntory Draft Beer’s “Namama Family” commercial, there’s a scene where Kento Yamazaki is shopping while singing an original parody song and runs into Mone Kamishiraishi.

The way Yamazaki gets embarrassed when she catches him singing leaves a strong impression.

In this commercial, he’s singing O-Zone’s signature track “Dragostea Din Tei,” which became a huge hit in Japan around 2004 under the title “Koi no Maiahi.” It became a topic of conversation because the Romanian lyrics sounded like Japanese to many listeners, starting with the famous “Numa Numa Yay.”
