At first glance, you will immediately recognize the photographs as Okuyama's work, as they seem to reflect a diffuse, effervescent energy.

The photo book contains 123 photographs selected from more than 10,000 cuts by the art director, Satoru Machiguchi. Why don't you take a look back to "that time" when everyone had a chance to be a part of it?
