I filmed surrounded by a lot of digital elements, but the point where it finally transforms into this blue, fresh world is what I think makes it a very interesting commercial. ――― After finishing the shoot, were there any scenes or moments that left an impression on you? This time, I filmed inside various digital settings, and the scene where I was enveloped in light was incredibly beautiful. ――― If there's anything you look for in contact lenses, please tell us. Moisture. Overwhelmingly. ――― When do you feel your eyes are tired? Please tell us about your daily "eye care methods." It's not just for work, but I really can't do anything without contact lenses, or rather, contact lenses help me a lot. Since I use them every day, if I feel my eyes getting a little tired, I close my eyes, or press pressure points, doing eye care that I can do myself. ――― Speaking of "seeing," was there anything you "saw" recently that left an impression on you? Recently, when I went to Paris, I was able to see cherry blossoms, and that made me very happy. They were just starting to bloom, but the ones I saw were smaller than Japan's Somei Yoshino, with a vibrant pink color, and they were very beautiful. ■ TV Commercial Overview / Storyboard Release Date: May 11th Title: 1-DAY ACUVUE® OASYS® MAX "Digital Life" (15 seconds, 30 seconds) Full CM (15 seconds): https://youtu.be/CB6LpexGA6E Full CM (30 seconds): https://youtu.be/sjGys-93XvQ TV CM Making-of Video: https://youtu.be/D5lQnwG6-BY Acuvue® Digital Life Campaign Site: https://www.acuvue.com/ja-jp/eye-health/digital-eye-strain/ Reasons why Acuvue® is chosen: https://www.acuvue.com/ja-jp/considering-contacts/why-acuvue/ Storyboard (30 seconds) Born March 5, 1997, from Fukuoka Prefecture.
