This is a commercial encouraging early medical consultation for COVID-19 to protect not only yourself but also your family.

Although COVID-19 is no longer a major topic in the media, it presents data showing that in 2024, the number of people who died from COVID-19 was more than ten times higher than those who died from influenza, emphasizing that its threat has not subsided.

It then shares the personal story of a woman who cares for her parents while managing her own life, conveying the importance of protecting yourself in order to support your family.

The commercial features the children’s song “Kono Michi,” known for its gentle melody, as background music.

The vocals are by the married duo Humbert Humbert, whose warm voices suit the song perfectly.

Hang in there, big bro!Hanbaato Hanbaato

Humbert Humbert – Ganbare Niichan [Official Music Video]

This is a song by Humbert Humbert about a slightly timid older brother.

It’s included on their album “Kazoku Koushinkyoku” (Family March), released in July 2017.

He’s a bit slow at everything and sometimes loses to his younger brother—at first glance, he seems unreliable.

But the younger brother knows the cool, unbeatable side of him and respects him from the bottom of his heart.

This piece is filled with a loving cheer: I’ll help you with the weak parts, so keep doing your best from now on.

Please listen while thinking of someone dear to you.

Humbert Humbert – Boku no ohisama [Official Music Video]

This song gives voice to inner complexes and those frustrating feelings that resist words.

It’s included on the acclaimed album “Mukashi Boku wa Mijime Datta,” released in May 2014 by the husband-and-wife duo Humbert Humbert.

Carried by the warm tones of acoustic guitar, the protagonist’s aching heart—caught between ideals and reality—is tenderly portrayed through the pair’s gentle harmonies.

A decade later, the track was chosen as the theme song for a film released in 2024.

It’s also memorable that the director drew the story’s initial inspiration from this very piece.
