2002-nen Halmeoni Ondo at PopRot
What is 2002-nen Halmeoni Ondo?
2002-nen Halmeoni Ondo is a very short music-anime entry tied to NHK’s long-running Minna no Uta program. The Japanese title is 2002年ばあちゃん(ハルモニ)音頭, and the title is also rendered in database listings as 2002-nen Baachan Ondo / Harmoni Ondo.
Unlike a TV series with a cast and plot arc, this is a single music video. PopRot therefore treats the property as a compact music-anime page: verified credits, viewing context, song-and-animation analysis, and clearly labeled notes where no named characters or multi-episode continuity could be confirmed.

Source-backed limits
No dedicated Fandom community for this individual music video was found during this run. Because named on-screen characters and a scene-by-scene official synopsis were not available from the accessible sources, this section avoids invented character names and treats the short as a music-video property rather than pretending it has series-style lore.
