Behind the Scenes: Insights from the Duo

6 0 6Before the show’s premiere, both Takeru and Shogo shared their thoughts about this exciting new venture.

Shogo’s comments: “I believe this program is Tokyo Hotéisan’s best opportunity to truly relax and express ourselves on television. The production team at Kibi Cable TV trusts us so much; it’s just a script of one sheet! We often deviate from the script, leading to amazing surprises and exotic sights that you wouldn't see in a typical location program. Those who want to see unique landscapes should definitely tune in to search for treasures!”

Takeru’s remarks: “It’s such an honor to have a show in my hometown of Takahashi City, Okayama, for audiences across the nation to see! We’re having a laid-back and fun approach to this project, so sit back, relax, and enjoy our comedic antics!”
