[Cast and Songs in the Spotlight] UCC Coffee Commercials Summary (1–10)
BLACK Unsweetened ‘True Coffee Journey #1’ VersionMunetaka Aoki

A simple narration-only commercial with just: “Nature teaches us what truly matters,” “Black coffee needs no flavoring,” and “UCC Black Unsweetened.” The BGM is Deep Purple’s “Black Night,” which has been used for UCC Black Unsweetened since 1994 and has become synonymous with the brand.
An edit that breaks the main riff in parts effectively highlights the product.
COFFEE LOVER’s PLANET “UCC GOLD PLANET” VersionMichiko Kichise

This is a commercial with a very striking tagline: “Coffee isn’t a liquid, it’s people.” Actress Michiko Kichise provides the narration, gently introducing the coffee.
From beautiful coffee cherries to a single cup, it’s made through the passion and skill of many people.
The background music by the Gipsy Kings is also brilliant and lovely.
UCC Cold Brew “Water-Brewed Coffee” Version / “Coffee Bag” VersionNanao Niinoo


This is a commercial that showcases UCC’s Cold Brew and what cold-brewed coffee is like, paired with refreshing visuals.
It portrays Nana Niino trying cold brewing, and her expressions—where you can almost see the emotion—convey the rich aroma and flavor that come from taking the time to brew.
The gentle, airy atmosphere of the footage is further accentuated by the song Kazetsuchiuta by baobab.
Centered on the layering of acoustic guitar and vocals, various tones chime in as accents, adding a curious depth to the refreshing mood.
Misato Watanabe

It’s a TV commercial from around 1988—so nostalgic.
Misato Watanabe walks through a vast sunflower field, and three kangaroos quietly follow behind her carrying coffee.
Not just the kangaroos’ faces, but even the sun’s face looks like it resembles someone… It has that warm, familiar feel.
I bet many people felt their hearts pierced by Cupid’s arrow at Misato Watanabe’s radiant smile.
UCC Ueshima Coffee Delicious Decaf Coffee: “The Secret of Deliciousness” / “#MyNightCoffee”


Here are two commercials for UCC’s delicious decaf coffee.
In “The Secret of Deliciousness,” it carefully introduces, through illustrations and narration, both situations where decaf coffee is recommended and the secret behind why UCC’s decaf tastes so good.
Meanwhile, the “#MyNightCoffee” spot consists only of gentle background music and softly drawn illustrations, emphasizing that it’s a coffee you can drink at night without worrying about caffeine.
These ads clearly convey the product’s appeal from multiple angles.
UCC OriginalKoichi Tabuchi

Koichi Tabuchi, who was active with the Hanshin Tigers, appears in it.
The ad draws a parallel between Tabuchi selecting the right pitches to hit home runs and UCC selecting quality beans to make coffee.
During his playing days, Tabuchi was called a “home run artist” for the majestic arcs of his homers, and his excellent pitch selection was also highly regarded.
By featuring Tabuchi, who enjoys strong trust among baseball fans, the ad significantly boosted UCC Coffee’s brand image.

The gently enveloping CM song that accompanies these heartwarming scenes was composed and performed by Charan-Po-Rantan.
Within the small, love-filled space within a one-meter radius spent with your pup, there’s BEANS & ROASTERS! With it added, time with your beloved dog becomes the ultimate healing moment.
