On the same day, KFC Japan will be releasing a new TV commercial starring the much loved Japanese comedy duo – Bananaman.
The commercial begins with Osamu Shitara ordering two Chicken Fillet Sandwiches for himself and Yuki Himura whilst stating “It’s improper to come to KFC and not order a sandwich”. When the sandwiches arrive, Himura exclaims in surprise “There’s an extra chicken...did you order two?!”. At the end, the two pose with a Colonel Sanders statue and their sandwiches whilst saying “If you visit KFC, you should order a sandwich.”
The shooting of the new commercial took place in the early hours of an office district in Tokyo. As it was the first time for the staff to work alongside Bananaman, there was a sense of tension and anxiety in the air, but when they stepped on scene, the atmosphere changed completely. The two kept morale up with their jokes on set, and the scene was recorded surrounded by a bright and cheery atmosphere.
