You can’t watch TV without seeing the Ueno Clinic commercial.

The most memorable part is the scene featuring a man in a turtleneck, right? Thanks to this ad, he’s affectionately known as the “Turtleneck Boy,” and it’s been creating a huge buzz on social media.

Even though the topic is sensitive, there are many striking commercials with catchy direction.

This time, we’ll introduce Ueno Clinic’s commercials—touching on the direction and background music as well—that have captured so much public interest.

Ueno Clinic Tokyo: ‘UENOMAN Monjayaki’ Version

[Ueno Clinic] Tokyo Ueno Clinic Commercial 'UENOMAN Monjayaki' Version [Official]

A slightly uncool guy can’t manage to cook monjayaki properly, worrying his girlfriend.

But then he levels up into a more ‘Ueno’ man and, for some reason, breaks into breakdancing.

Next, he cooks monja with hand movements like the Thousand-Armed Kannon—this is the concept of the commercial.

The location is Tsukishima Monja Street, a tourist spot in Chuo City, Tokyo.

It’s an area lined with teppan-style eateries like monjayaki and okonomiyaki shops.
