The concept behind “The WOW Factory” came from Hakuhodo Kettle CD Kentaro Kimura’s personal experiences as a 19-year-old on a world round trip.
“It gave me a lot of unexpected adventure which changed my life. Backpack trip in young age often can change the whole life. That inspired me with this story,” said Kimura
