CM Story

A girl waves from the balcony of a building. A boy in a convertible car is at the end of her line of sight.

The two take her out and drive through the concrete jungle in the convertible.

They pick up a hitchhiker they encounter on the way and head for Himeji Central Park at night.

The two hug each other in a fantastic pool with a large fireworks display.

The commercial depicts an unforgettable moment on a midsummer night as the adults are immersed in a momentary extraordinary experience.


The commercial was created by fusing live-action images and generative AI. It creates a pop and strange worldview, and the collage creates an adult picture-story show-like atmosphere that is both modern and nostalgic at the same time.
