In music, I enjoy not only rock from Japan and abroad but, lately, a wide range of J-pop as well.

Kentucky Fried Chicken has many locations in busy downtown areas, along major roads, and in shopping malls, and its TV commercials air frequently, so I think many people are familiar with it.

In recent KFC commercials, actors like Kento Kaku and Mitsuki Takahata have appeared, and there are plenty of spots with friendly, relatable direction and a fun sense of humor.

In this article, we’ll introduce a whole lineup of KFC commercials along with the CM songs that have been used over the years.

Be warned—you might find yourself craving fried chicken as you watch!
