On The 9th, the movie "Half World" (directed by Shunji Hanamoto), starring actor Goro Inagaki, held a promotional event on the eve of its release on February 15, which was held at the spa Hawaiian Resort in Fukushima Prefecture.

Originally a mining area known as the Tokiwa Charcoal Mine, the spa Hawaiian Resort is described in the movie "Half-World" as the life of the protagonist's charcoal burner, and in addition to the keyword "charcoal", the place is also widely known as the "bond retreat", and in the promotional activities, it also tells the two common points of family and friendship described in this drama, and the "bondage" between people.

On the day of the great cold wave, the snow falls non-stop outside, because the average annual temperature in the spa Hawaii resort is 28 degrees, so even if it is winter outside, the resort is always summer. In line with the spa Hawaiian Resort in the middle of summer, Inagaki appeared in a gorgeous suit with a southern pattern and said to the audience, "Guys, today is really a beautiful day, but thank you very much for coming!" I'm really happy. Because there are props and other things used in filming, I think back to what happened at that time", and the production tidbits of "Half World", which was held at the spa Hawaii Resort in collaboration with this event, showed a production tidbit, which is really nostalgic.

Although this collaboration with co-starring Hiroshi Hasegawa, Chizuru Ikewaki, and Kiyohiko Shibukawa is the first time, Inagaki recalls, "Because they are all actors who want to work together, the cooperation in this work is also a realization of my dream." During the filming process, because everyone was focused on their respective roles, they didn't feel amiable, but this was also the second reunion with everyone after last year's Tokyo International Film Festival and the completion of filming, so I could go to dinner with everyone, including the director."

Regarding the details of the filming process, Inagaki appealed that "Mr. Hasegawa had action scenes during the filming process, and although he seemed to be controlled, his eyes were really terrifying in the action scenes. The filming of that scene is still fresh in my mind. It's really exciting. In order to be able to work with the co-actors again, in order to be able to appear in the director's work again, I will work harder."

In addition, at the event venue spa Hawaii Resort, Inagaki said with a smile, "This is the second time I've been here, including the advertising shoot, and it's very warm inside, and I can enjoy the difference from the outside, and the temperature inside feels very good." I also wanted to come back in private. I can't ride a roller coaster, but A water scooter should be ok." (Arya/Translation)
