The show began airing in 1996 and will celebrate its 30th anniversary next year. The program has gained popularity as a “variety show about friendship discovery” with laughter and tears, in which the personalities of the two Unnans and their guests are brought out with laughter, and new friendships are born. It also became a topic of conversation when Bacardi changed his name to “Samaaz” and Umisagari Suio changed his name to “Kurimuchu” as part of a project in the program. In this special program, Uchimura, Kazuki Ohtake (57) of the “Samarazu” duo, and Jun Nakura (57) of the “Neptune” duo plan to revive the surfing trip they took in 2003. Uchimura said, “Actually, it was Nakura who triggered the revival. When I had a drink with Nagura, he said, “Mr. Uchimura, I really want to surf. I definitely want to do that! He was forever saying, “I really want to do that! So I managed to talk to TBS about it and we were able to make it happen. I’m in a good mood.” I’m too excited to see the revival of “Unnan’s Mood is Up” on TV. I can’t help but look forward to the revival of “I’m in a good mood.

Nishikigoi, Zun, and Bananaman, also known as “Mr. Iromonaire,” won one million yen. However, “Iromonaire” is not so much a show about Eunan as it is about the comedians who take on challenges. On the other hand, “I’m in a good mood. is mainly about Unnan, with talk and location work by Uchimura and Minamihara. So the show that Eunan fans are drooling over is back, isn’t it? It is rare for the two to be together in the first place, but it’s not that they don’t get along or anything. It is said that the agency has adopted a strategy of “the two of them being together is valuable. The content of their work is different, and having the two Unnans together in a big special program is exciting for both the performers and the viewers. It is said within the industry that the office’s strategy is working.
