The Japanese media platform ABEMA has announced that editor and entrepreneur Kosuke Minowa and photojournalist Yoichi Watabe will appear as guests in original episodes #5 and #6 of the program "Masahiro Higashide's Camping Detox" (produced by Asahi Broadcasting Television), streaming exclusively on ABEMA starting Friday, June 5th, at 6:00 PM.

"Masahiro Higashide's Camping Detox" is a human documentary series in which actor Masahiro Higashide, who moved to a remote mountainous area five years ago to escape urban life, invites entertainers navigating the harsh reality of the city to join him for a two-day camping excursion. The show captures the journey through rugged mountain trails, the breathtaking views, and the raw reality of spending the night outdoors, aiming to provide a mental detox for his guests amidst nature.

Episodes #5 and #6, which are exclusive ABEMA originals, will feature Kosuke Minowa, known for producing numerous hit works as an editor and active entrepreneur, and Yoichi Watabe, a war photographer who has traveled to conflict zones around the world to capture the reality of battlefields.

Although the three work in different fields—as an editor, a war photographer, and an actor—they share the common ground of making their living by "conveying" and "expressing" things. Furthermore, this marks the first meeting between Higashide and Watabe, drawing attention to what the three will share while connecting for the first time in the great outdoors.

On the day of the shoot, the forecast was unfortunately for rain. Considering the risk of getting stranded, they were forced to abandon their plan to enter the mountain. In this irregular two-day camping life against the backdrop of nature, what will the three discover and feel?

Additionally, the program includes complete behind-the-scenes footage of Masahiro Higashide hunting. What will be the outcome? This two-day experience involves facing life head-on, with the conversation topics extending to their views on life, death, and the fundamental question: "What does it mean to live?"

Far from the noise of the city, the true colors and honest feelings of the three will be laid bare in the wilderness. Please look forward to seeing them open up their hearts and share their respective life philosophies and ways of living in this unique setting.

"Masahiro Higashide's Camping Detox" Episode #5 will be streamed exclusively on ABEMA on Friday, June 5th, and Episode #6 on Friday, June 12th, at 6:00 PM.
