What happens when you give a horse a Yogibo, the famous brand of beanbag chairs? It might just relax more than a human! A TV commercial showing just that started airing on August 8th, and it's become a hot topic.


The star of the commercial is Admire Japan, a horse famous for its legendary races against the great Deep Impact. Despite the major role of being the first animal to officially endorse a product in Yogibo's history, he shows us a heartwarming and truly relaxing expression...!

The commercial was filmed at the Yogibo Versailles Resort Farm in Hidaka, Saru District, Hokkaido. This is a sanctuary for famous racehorses to live out their days after retiring from their racing careers, and it's where Admire Japan currently resides.


The footage was originally shot on a smartphone and posted on social media, where it received a huge response, leading to this TV commercial. And get this—the contract fee was a whopping 10 million yen, equivalent to 12 years' worth of carrots consumed at the farm!

It seems Admire Japan isn't the only one; other renowned horses living at the Yogibo Versailles Resort Farm have also fallen in love with Yogibo.

Their relaxed looks are so soothing...! Moreover, this initiative also supports the Yogibo Versailles Resort Farm, which takes in retired racehorses, making it wonderful news for fans as well.
