I’m from Taiwan so we are used to earthquakes. But I can understand it is different in another country where you cannot get timely information when disaster strikes. From my experience in Japan though, we almost always had very kind young local people who would help us in English in times of need. They really warmed our hearts and made the trips special. There’s always a risk no matter where you go. In general I still think Japan is a safe place regardless.

I'm Japanese and very much appreciate your comments that are warm and accurate. I also thank people in Taiwan, especially, a group of Taiwanese doctors who offered help immediately after the earthquake.
@@magurokuro1 you are very kind! I think you probably know more English than you believe. Please be confident to express yourself! Between body language, google translate, and just a few words of English we can understand very well 🥰.
Since I lived in Tokyo when I was a student, I didn't absolutely worry earthquakes with a seismic intensity of 4. However, overseas, some people live in countries where earthquakes rarely occur, so an earthquake with seismic intensity of 4 would be frightening. Even if Japanese houses are quite old, there is almost no chance of them collapsing in an earthquake with seismic intensity of 4, so foreign tourists should rest assured. 学生時代、東京にいたから震度4くらいの地震は別にきにもしなくなった。海外だと、そもそも地震がほとんど起きない国の人たちもいるので、震度4だと恐ろしく感じるだろう。日本の家屋は、かなり古いものでも、震度4で倒壊する可能性はほぼゼロなので、外国の観光客の皆さんは安心してほしい。
