Aomori Prefecture's "AOMORI Media Labo." video production team released a total of 10 video works online on March 24th.

The production of this work is part of a prefecture promotion project that supports the efforts of students in the prefecture to disseminate information about the appeal of Aomori prefecture and the value of living.

Some students dropped their smartphones on the ground and broke the screen.

Kanako Hatayama, a 4th-year student at Hirosaki University, said, “I was born in Aomori and grew up in Aomori, but if there are people who are excited about the locality, such as Mr. Kimura, and are producing results, I do not have to give up just because I am in a rural area. I got the courage."

Each work is currently available on YouTube and the Aomori homepage.
