Osaki Town, Kagoshima Prefecture (Mayor: Yasuhiro Higashi) has collaborated with Katsumi Kawahara of the comedy duo “Tenjikunezu”, which has received charismatic support for its unique worldview, and is limited to hometown tax return gifts, and the hometown drawn by Mr. Kawahara. We have started offering paintings that express Osaki Town from December 20, 2022 (Tuesday).
When it comes to hometown tax donations in Osaki Town, which is known as a treasure trove of food ingredients, the majority of return gifts are eel, mango, beef, pork, and other agricultural, livestock and marine products born from the rich nature and warm climate. He has been appointed as the Osaki Town Hometown PR Ambassador, and this art work was born out of his desire to give back to his hometown where he was born and raised, and to do a new kind of PR in his own way. Mr. Kawahara widely disseminates the charm of the town on Osaki Town’s official YouTube channel “Osaki Yuchu-bu”, and also energetically contributes to the local community, such as sending autographed colored paper to local boy groups.
