Singer-songwriter Vaundy's new song "Boku ni wa dou wakaru darou" has been chosen as the theme song for the drama series "PJ ~Kokuu Kyuuen-dan~" (TV Asahi, Thursdays 9pm), starring actor Seiyo Uchino, which will begin on April 24th. The song was written by Vaundy specifically for the series and will be released digitally on the 25th, the day after the first broadcast.
Vaundy commented, "Where do things like 'mission' and 'passion' come from? What is the unfounded confidence we have when it comes to accomplishing something? I thought it might be because we are guided by destiny and live in a cycle of reincarnation that repeats over and over again, and that's why I wrote the song 'How Do I Know?' People are always searching and groping for a colored world, but I'm sure they can't reach it, but they somehow know the answer. I put the self-questioning and conflicted feelings of one man like that into this song."
"I had the chance to see a little bit of the drama's footage early on, and it's a work that has been created with an overwhelming sense of scale and passion, so I'm looking forward to it airing," he said.
The drama is an original story that focuses on the Air Self-Defense Force Aviation Rescue Wing, commonly known as PJ (Pararescue Jumpers), who carry out rescue operations under harsh conditions during accidents and disasters. The trainees who passed the difficult selection test to become PJ members face rigorous training under the strict and unconventional chief instructor Usami Seiji (Uchino). The trainees are played by Fuju Kamio, Anna Ishii, Kentaro Maeda, Aoto Watanabe, Kusama Richard Keita, Atsuhiro Inukai, and Maeda Oshiro.
