CANDY TUNE's Refreshing Solution for Allergy Sufferers

The popular idol group, CANDY TUNE, is set to star in a new TV commercial for #AG Allergy Cut, an allergy-specific nasal spray by Daiichi Sankyo Healthcare, aimed at providing relief from frustrating nasal congestion. The commercial dubbed "Refreshing!" will premiere nationwide on February 7, 2026.

In recent years, the number of people suffering from hay fever, particularly those aged 20 to 40, has surged. A study conducted by Daiichi Sankyo Healthcare has pointed out that the incidence of nasal congestion symptoms is notably higher among those in this age group compared to the average across all generations. Responding to this pressing issue, the campaign aims to raise awareness about effective solutions to nasal discomfort, particularly through nasal sprays.

CANDY TUNE, a group that resonates well with this demographic, has been chosen to underscore the slogan, "Get refreshed with Allergy Cut!"—portraying a sense of relief and clarity after using the product. The TV commercial showcases the members of CANDY TUNE transitioning from troubled expressions due to pollen-induced congestion to vibrant smiles, emphasizing the product's refreshing effect.
