SoftBank is currently producing a commercial featuring Justin Bieber and Pikotaro.
SoftBank announced on February 6th that it is producing a new TV commercial featuring its advertising character, global superstar Justin Bieber, alongside Piko Taro, whose video "PPAP (Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen)" became a worldwide sensation. In the currently airing "Declaration" edition, Bieber only appears on the screen of an electronic bulletin board.
"PPAP" became a global hit after Bieber shared it on social media last year, calling it his "favorite."
The two reportedly met for the first time on set during filming in Japan this January.
The scenario involved Bieber, playing a high school student, entering the classroom where Piko Taro, playing the teacher, was waiting.
A digest version of the making-of footage is available on the company's official YouTube channel.
