【DAY IN THE LIFE】27-year-old working woman【from Japan】

Do you know a job called "Furisode san"?
In Japanese hairstyle, white makeup, and kimono, they dance and entertain customers in banquets.
Just like "Maiko san" in Kyoto.
In Asakusa, a popular sightseeing town,
they call these ladies "Furisode san".
Today we are with 27-year-old "Furisode san", Tomoko's day in the life.
If you wish to enjoy their service,
it's usually quite expensive.
It's one of the entertainments for the celebrities.
However there is a place where you could fully enjoy their service with reasonable price.
You could experience the service "Furisode chaya" at famous Japanese restaurant " Towada" in Asakusa.

Today, Tomoko is working at "Furisode chaya".
She entertains customers with her conversation and dance in beautiful kimono.
She is also a big OTAKU of anime, and dreaming to become a voice actor. She is going to tell us why she became an OTAKU, and will show us her house filled with anime goods!
Hope you enjoy Japanese culture and lifestyle through her DAY IN THE LIFE!

Hi, I'm Ken.
This channel introduces you to Japan’s culture and lifestyle
through my own lens as someone who was born and raised here in Japan.
I’d like to cover both positive...
and not-so-positive aspects of Japan that are authentic.
You will surely see the real Japan of today!
By the way, I ride HONDA Super Cub.

I hope she gets the opportunity to be a voice actor in the anime industry. We’re rooting for you!

[@experience_point6233]

Her father is a man of culture.

[@AidanK_ART]

it's refreshing that some people in your videos in their late 20s have some kind of dream unrelated to their current job. In my country, 27 years is considered a fairly respectable age at which a girl should already be married, have children and a permanent job that she will not change. I am 27 and still not working at my dream job, still not married, I have no children and I dream of changing country of residence. In my country, it is considered too late for me to change anything, because I will soon be 30. But I watch your videos, and some people at the same age have not yet achieved their dreams and are striving for it too, and this is considered normal. It inspires and gives me hope that it's not too late for me either. Thank you!

[@CherryBlossom-ni2be]

Cheers to being 27 and unmarried! I am proud of my state in life right now because my friends got kids way too early and are struggling financially and their dreams took a turning point because of the added responsibility. Another thing, I have co-workers that are in their 40s that regret having kids too early at the age of 21-25 because they couldn't do a lot of the things they wanted. Thus are envious of me because I travel during my days off. I'm Asian so I know what you feel when you say that at that age you should be married etc and are getting old. But, I took my own path and will decide my own future and not have some culture dictate it for me. I am turning 27 in a few weeks, have a stable job which pays well, no kids, in a steady relationship and have travelled a lot of places. My only responsibility is myself and helping out my family every once in awhile. We're in a good spot. Don't rush and enjoy your youth!

[@nhatvinhnhatvinh7310]

May I ask where are you from? I'm a male from South East Asia and lived in Japan for a long time, and indeed women in my home country face many problems with job/dream/marriage before the age of 30. In Japan, simply because women age slower, heave a much better income, that's why they are not worried much about getting married.

[@annettecaitlyn1058]

It's never late. If you have a dream go for it!

[@lr5848]

32, unmarried, teacher, and full of hopes and dreams. I'm looking forward to become a published Comic-Illustrator :)

[@Caesar_Online]

Nothing could've prepared me for the room of her dad, that was incredible hahahah

[@SP-ki5gn]

And not at all worrying.

[@trancis_]

I love the “Day in the life” series and I really enjoyed this video! Wishing the best for Tomoko and I hope she will be successful in achieving her dreams!

[@Chuck8541]

Working online, sitting and lazing around the house for a couple years - I forget how busy some peoples days can be! I need to get off my butt. lol So fascinating to see her day! Thank you for showing us!

[@bluesevern]

She is so calm and elegant. I hope she gets to voice act. Also can we please have a video of her dad? 😍

[@christophe36000]

A so cute Tomoko, so mentally balanced, so clear-minded and so strong-minded, so courageous, in a word : impressive congratulations

[@Strange_Boyyy]

Who's watching this in Dec 2023? Ken, this is a very good Day In The Life video! I really enjoyed this. Great work. 🙂

[@attache675]

Shoutout to the wife for being so cool with the father having a room decked out in his passion.

[@mizoyarol9873]

It's his home

[@Hulalulatallulahoop2]

I think this "Day in the Life" is my favourite to date...it was really fascinating!! I watched that game that Tomoko played (with the cup) on an English cooking show where two chefs went to Japan and even then it looked great fun! I'd love a follow up on Tomoko in the future. Many thanks, Ken and Erica.

[@akbargabbar505]

Hiii 👋🌺🌼🌻💞

[@errahsalem6683]

Thank you for this Ken- san, Ive been waiting!

[@eekaitan1973]

[@ken_honda]

That's amazing!! Thank you for sharing! Hope you enjoyed the time!!!

[@aaroncampbell8303]

These make my day everytime you put one up! Thank U!

[@0neAutumnLeaf]

[@dhirenrai3409]

Without a doubt, this is one of the best videos you have put out in my opinion. So fascinating to see traditional and modern interests coming from one individual. Hope her dream of becoming a voice actor comes true.

Happy to see a new video! It's been a while!

[@nico5179]

I can see that you are never too old to be a man of culture. That anime room is amazing.

[@Phlegethon]

Her dad gives hope to Otakus everywhere 😅

[@TheTruthHurts6666]

I look forward to these types of videos. This brings back fond memories of my time studying abroad in Japan ten years ago. I learned Nihon buyo and performed a few shows too. Putting on the thick makeup and kimono was quite an experience.

[@jemandjemand2362]

i like the not over the top enviroment she works in. just a normal restaurant with normal people. quite relatable

[@regychandrairawan2560]

Thank you so much i love it

[@tsham5940]

Bravo! Your documentaries are will made and highly entertaining ! I always feel that the people that are present in them are real people and at the end I always feel that they became a friend. well done and keep it coming :)

[@lombardi4]

Wow amazing and I wish her good luck 🙂👍

[@morfes]

What a coincidence, had a dinner in that exact restaurant on Asakusa in 2019 and there was 2 girls in kimono just next to us with other gentleman. Didn’t expect that tbh but was an amazing experience. Great video! Thanks.

[@Heresheis0818]

She is amazing😂

[@YangXixiahLifeVlogVtuber]

[@Asheffc]

[@ciii1237]

Good work Tomoko... Ganbatte ✊

[@franco3584]

Loved the Video Ken , I'm praying Tomoko gets a career doing Anime voice overs .

[@tmcn2023]

可愛い方ですね😊振袖さんも素敵ですが、夢の声優さんになることを、陰ながら応援しています。

[@muhammadilham7295]

Good job

[@Siyamthanda123]

THANK YOU KEN :-)

[@mariekesuppers5911]

I can't believe it but I have the same red furisode! (same on as in my profile picture) amazing!

[@oliveiradiderot]

VERY GOOD

[@Slydime917]

You may laugh at how a 53 year old man watches anime and plays games, but let's be real - that's how we will all be like.

[@helinaleyna1196]

Cool a new Video

[@Pariya555]

Hope to hear Tomoko's voice in an anime someday!

[@userwl2850]

She is most beautiful when she wakes up in the morning.

[@KonnichiwaJpLearning]

❤️❤️❤️

[@zacharyahshupe8506]

Yes! Glad to see you post another video💯 Hope your doing well:) She has a tough road ahead of her because the voice acting business is a tough one to get into. It can be rough to get into it in the USA so I can not imagine how tough it is over in Japan

[@venzchan]

She got some nice family wah 🤣 and she is pretty, all the best girl on your VA journey ❤️. I think it's the old host culture.

[@020untitled]

Very interesting profession…

[@hhli1]

what lovely girl

[@Talaxiong]

I like

[@PLOOKS]

she so cute.,

[@abdulla456]

👏👏👏

[@user-zi1ze2ks5o]

hah, the waking up part made me laugh. Now I am 49, I find it easy to wake up before 5 AM but as a young man I needed the "shaker" alarm because I am deaf, let me tell you it is a horrible way to wake up!

[@positiveandstrong2988]

Wish her all the best wt her dream.

[@VampireLord1024]

I see her dad likes the Ano Natsu de Matteru or Waiting in the Summer anime.

[@chuck571]

Wow! My room looks the same as her Dads:)

[@WANDERER0070]

Soon as Japan opens up Im there ! L

[@flip1sba]

Isn’t Japan already open but with some requirements?

[@aryogono6338]

4:40 oh wow not kidding her chichi is a big anime otaku 😁

[@kcrules1234]

She doesn’t get home until 1130pm… so brutal

[@michaelhart7282]

I would also love to see “Day in the life of Hostess”

[@niaputri2094]

Yesss, or a host

[@kuso.megane]

Guru guru mawaru~

[@yenpham-jb4wo]

She has a cute voice she’s probably gonna be successful

[@onion_____]

4:50 what was that blurred on the right

[@duncancampbell9490]

Wow - the only way she could be more amazing is if she learnt English for us foreign fans of Japanese culture.... Working so hard and Kawaii ! I hope you keep chasing your dreams.

[@soetomobratahadiningkusuma3735]

She do make up twice per day maybe more than for her job every day. Idk about that Thanks Ken San for new information

[@ezradlionel711]

Me: Japanese culture is so cool!! My own Culture: ok..

[@danielucha1310]

I have a question! What are the differences between Furisode san, Geiko/Maiko? I would like to know more.

[@ragnar40kblackmain]

5:10 square enix MADE A FRONT MISSION 5?!?!?!?

[@integreetkonstruksi4628]
