GACKT appears in a new commercial for Orion Beer

GACKT:.
I don’t really publicise it a lot, but I was born in Okinawa, and so my pride in coming from Okinawa is, in any case, strong.

A new commercial for Okinawa-based beer maker Orion Beer, featuring GACKT, who talks about his “love for Okinawa,” has now been released and will be aired in the Okinawa area from September 2.

In the new commercial, GACKT, who is from Okinawa, talks with athletes and artists from Okinawa and about the appeal of ‘Orion the Draft’ and his love for Okinawa.

Talks about his passionate and deep love for Okinawa in an interview

In this interview, GACKT shares his thoughts on his hometown.

GACKT:.
For me, being the face of Orion Beer is a higher priority than any other commercial. I’m just so proud of it.

GACKT:.
Through this job, first of all, I’m happy that I can be the face of Orion, and I’m happy that I’ve finally made it, and secondly, as a Uchinanchu (Okinawan), I’m wondering how I can raise the spirits of Okinawa, and how I can repay my debt of gratitude; all these things are part of this job.

GACKT:.
By getting involved in this work, I’m giving back to Okinawa…

GACKT:
Energising Okinawa…

GACKT:.
Bringing smiles to the people of Okinawa…

GACKT:.
In order to deliver it, I wholeheartedly and willingly agreed to work on this commercial. For me, it really feels like I’m finally getting to do this!
