Mr.Parka jr. ft. Dr.TurtleneckMr.Parka jr
Mr.
Parka jr.
is a character by the comedy duo Chocolate Planet—a rapper who wears a parka—and he’s extremely popular on YouTube and TV.
Among Mr.
Parka jr.’s works, the one I especially recommend is “Mr.

Dr.
Turtleneck.” The back-and-forth with Dr.
Turtleneck—a turtleneck-wearing rapper character played by Matsuo—is highly unique, making it an ideal song to sing together with friends.
