5:48 I got the feeling that the little hand gesture from the MAIKO after being illegally photographed by the young foreign woman was neither coincidental nor accidental---- or not?

Thank you for watching! I’m not sure..but could it be that the maiko was not offended by the foreign woman, but simply touched her hair?? I'm not sure,,,

@@culture-japan I agree with you . But it was fun to guess! The GEIMAIKOS appear so serene even when surrounded by pesky tourists on the street. They just keep calm-and carry on!
The first two that they showed, how come one of them were not wearing the long obi?

Trainee Maiko is why, for the first couple days before her Misedashi she will be accompanied by a maiko. Since she is not a full Maiko she doesn't wear the full Obi.

Thank you for watching!Handara-san (meaning half the length of the obi) is only in place for a short period of time, about a week, or two, and is a very rare sight!
