The National Association of Commercial Broadcasters in Japan has launched a TOKYO 2020 special corner on gorin.jp. Kuwata Keisuke performs the support song for the joint project "Let's Do It Together 2020".

On July 24, the National Association of Commercial Broadcasters in Japan launched a "TOKYO 2020" page within the joint commercial broadcaster Olympic site "gorin.jp". It will feature past Olympic videos organized by sport. Initially focusing on memorable swimming moments, it will later cover various sports aligned with major world championships for each discipline.
"gorin.jp" already streams over 4,000 past Olympic videos at any given time. Users can search videos by Games, sport, or athlete name. This allows viewers to revisit past Olympics and enjoy memorable medal moments and iconic scenes.
Furthermore, gorin.jp has begun collaborating with TVer, the official commercial broadcaster TV portal. A "TOKYO 2020" corner has been established within TVer, allowing users to watch Olympic videos just like on gorin.jp.

■About the Commercial Broadcasters' Official TV Portal "TVer"
Launched in October 2015, " TVer " is a catch-up service operated by the five major Tokyo-based commercial broadcasters (Nippon TV, TV Asahi, TBS Television, TV Tokyo, Fuji Television). Currently, it collaborates with 10 companies, including the five Osaka-based commercial broadcasters (Mainichi Broadcasting System, Asahi Broadcasting Corporation, TV Osaka, Kansai Television, and Yomiuri Television), officially streaming approximately 200 programs with ads for free on PCs, smartphones (app), tablets (app), and TVs (app). This marks the second time Olympic videos will be featured, following the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Games, with streaming also planned during the Tokyo Games.

Meanwhile, on July 23, the five major Tokyo-based commercial broadcasters (Nippon TV, TV Asahi, TBS TV, TV Tokyo, and Fuji Television) announced the joint commercial project " Let's Do It Together 2020 " for next year's Tokyo Olympics.
Until the opening, they plan various viewer-participation social contribution projects. The companies will collaborate to implement more "socially conscious joint projects" to inspire unprecedented movements.
Musician Keisuke Kuwata has been confirmed as the performer for the project's theme song. It will be used in related programs and events going forward.
Additionally, a message movie expressing the initiative's purpose has been produced by Creative Director Yoshimitsu Sawamoto (Dentsu Inc.). It will air on the news programs of the five participating networks.
