Yuuri has released the music video for his song "Sekai ga Owarimashita," starring actor Ryoma Takeuchi.
The song served as the theme for the TV Asahi drama Saikai ~Silent Truth~, which aired from January through March and starred Takeuchi. The mid-tempo rock love song now receives a music video filmed in Namibia, including the Namib Desert.
The video follows Takeuchi as he travels through the country, gradually blurring the line between himself and the character portrayed in the song. In the vast Namib Desert, whose name means "a place where there is nothing" in the local Nama language, Takeuchi uses his entire body to express the song's climactic final chorus.
Director Elizabeth Miyaji said he gave Takeuchi very little direction on how to act, wanting to capture his genuine reactions to experiencing Namibia for the first time.
Takeuchi also reflected on his experience meeting local children and families during filming, saying he was moved by their kindness and strength. "Before I knew it, my heart and body were filled with a deep sense of fulfillment. It reminded me that I really do love people," he expressed.
