Thanks for your support! 🙂

WOW!!! Japan! now I understand why you said"everything looks dated in a good way" on the first Japan video! I didnt realize since I live in Japan .. but Watching this episode, I feel those buildings and markets look dated ! don't know why but comparing buildings on your korean videos... haha

Love the fact that you can meet up with your friends in Osaka. I really like the outdoor soaking tub. Noted!😘

Peter here, We really enjoyed Osaka, I think I would go as far as to say it was my favorite out of all the places we visited in Japan.

Many thanks, we had a great time especially with friends, so many great memories of the past and making new ones.

Regarding Pachinko, I strongly recommed you to read the book 'Pachinko'. It's remade as a show by Apple TV. The business is deeply related to Korean-Japanese called 'Jainichi'. Anyway I am so glad cause the new videos are coming up everyday!!! Safe and Happy travel!!!

[@StephandPete]

My mom just told me about this book! She enjoyed it. I’m trying to catch up on videos so by the time we get to India we aren’t so far behind. 😅 But I’m not sure how much longer I can keep up with every other day! 😆

[@ssim5206]

Many Koreans support your family's fun and happy trip. The beautiful smiles your family showed during your long stay in Korea brought us a lot of happiness. Thank you always!

We are continually blown away by the support and love we have felt from Korean subscribers, we hope you all enjoy our continued travels to other countries. You also never know when we might be back in Korea :)

Hi Masaaki! Thanks for a great morning! We enjoyed it very much.

[@SC-or2zb]

I've never been to Japan but I want to visit in the future. So far, it feels a bit subdued/toned down but also more delicate(?) compared to Korea's atmosphere personally. Or am I imagining things...?

[@StephandPete]

It’s hard not to compare the two but they’re so different.

[@user-zw40ba50o]

That's right. I'm Korean and I like to travel to Japan. If Korea is dynamic and energetic, Japan feels static and organized.. The atmosphere is calm and cleaner.. (There are more food and attractions in Osaka, Kyoto, and Fukuoka than in Tokyo)

I miss Korea videos but at the same time so happy for Japanese videos cause this is my 2nd home :) Otaku is basically any with obsession? With a certain thing usually something subculture. For me I am a kpop group otaku 😅 I think in the past it was frowned upon but lately I think more and more people are accepting lol (perhaps except for really niche things lol) but to each their own!

Hey. I am a dude who started to pee while sitting down. I only started doing this because we moved into a brand spanking new apartment and I am the only one who cleans the toilet inside and out on a weekly basis. Plus, we taught our son to pee while sitting down as well.

The reason why Japan is clean and orderly is it gets taught to them at a very young age. Glad Hays got to play with other kids.

[@bixbu9844]

While credit cards are easy to use, the fees are paid to the credit card company, which increases the price of the product. There are advantages and disadvantages, but the smaller stores that have been in business for a long time have chosen to offer their products to the locals at a lower price rather than pay a fee to the credit card companies. However, since Covid happened, people are starting to move to electronic payments so that they don't have to touch the money. Many of the countries that have gone cashless are those that have built their infrastructure with cutting-edge technology from a developing state. South Korea, China, India, Africa, etc. are making progress in cashless transactions. If the infrastructure has been built for a long time, the cost of replacing the old infrastructure and the law are obstacles, and it seems far from a complete transition... By the way, fax machines are still in use in many developed countries such as the U.S., Germany, France, and Japan. This situation is called "Leapfrogging”

[@StephandPete]

Leapfrogging! Yes! We just never thought about it. But it makes so much sense.

[@오징어-j1f]

The minimum wage(including part-time job) or the starting salary for college graduates in Japan are lower than in Korea. That's why I think Japan is closer to a developing country than Korea.

[@오징어-j1f]

Even in Korea, 10 years ago, stores accepted cash rather than credit cards for reasons such as fees. However, in order to meet customer needs and prevent tax evasion, most of them now accept credit cards. Not using the card is the main purpose of tax evasion. And fax is used in Korea, and it has nothing to do with card use. And the Japanese are good at lying. So don't trust what they say. Forex Bonus, a market research institute, announced the ranking of the world's top 10 countries with low cash usage rates, with Canada, Sweden, and the UK taking first to third place, respectively. China has high mobile payment usage and low credit card payments. Needless to say, Africa has low rates of mobile and credit card usage. He brought the year 2105 data floating around in the Korean and Japanese communities and is making a fuss.
