Prior to this, Yaya was part of a show named Fly With Yaya and during their first season, they focused on the hustle and bustle of Tokyo, Japan.

This time, Yaya was chosen by the Tohoku Inbound Association dan Yamagata Broadcasting Co. to promote Muslim-friendly tourism in Tohoku. She does it alongside her friend, Tomoko-chan.

There, they will show the activities done in tranquil Tohoku.

Fly with Yaya is a CGI Travel Show that uses CGI alongside live footage. This program was once nominated for the Licensing International Excellence Award 2020.

The show is quite informative as well, so if you want to watch it with your little ones, you can watch it on Astro prima or on the MONSTA Youtube Channel!

The first episode has already been uploaded on their YouTube channel and it certainly made us drool when they were eating those plump, juicy oysters.

Watch it here.
