The release of the 2024 calendar has been decided!
The theme of this calendar is "Countryside."
The calendar recreates the rural life that Matsushima has longed for since he was an elementary school student and has always said, "I would like to live like that."
The filming took place in an actual old house, and there are many shots that allow you to imagine, "What if Shota Matsushima were a young man living in the countryside today?", such as a scene of him powerfully chopping firewood and innocently eating a rice dumpling.
The photos were taken by photographer Uchida Shinnosuke, who has worked on such works as the photo book "Summer Color Photography" with the theme of "Summer, Countryside, High School Girls," and it is a special work that allows you to immerse yourself in Uchida's worldview. Please spend 2024 with this book filled with Matsushima's longings.
