Japan is not perfect: 7 uncomfortable truths about the Land of the Rising Sun that make even native people shake their heads in disgust

Japan is a country that is often praised in many fields.

In general, Japan is always considered a perfect country.

1. Neighbors are ready to complain to the homeowner if anyone… walks too loudly

Japanese houses have an interesting feature: most of them use light and thin materials.

This is why when living in Japan, it is extremely important to stay quiet, but not just on public transportation but at home too.

Of course, not everyone living in Japan likes to tiptoe around their home, especially young people.

In the story above, you may wonder why the difficult neighbor didn’t simply knock on the door and ask the YouTuber to keep quiet?

This is actually related to cultural issues.

The landowner will then be responsible for writing a notice back to the tenant, stating that the neighbors are upset about the noise they are causing.

Japanese culture does not like foreigners (in fact).

However, there is a community in Japan – called `Gaijin hunters` (roughly translated: foreign hunters) that are extremely open.

Mira – a Canadian YouTuber living in Japan shares the following story: `My first friends in Japan were a group of Gaijin hunters. They were very cute, but later when I learned a little Japanese, I was shocked.

In addition, some Japanese women today tend to `hunt` foreign men to have children, because they believe that a child of mixed blood will be extremely beautiful.

In Japan, the terms Uchi and Soto are very popular.

But so what?

Some young activists in Japan believe that this system is really toxic, because it makes many people feel inferior and inferior, leading to self-alienation from society and thereby creating Hikikomori.

Hikikomori are people who voluntarily separate from society.

Hikikomori usually live in their parents’ house, spend most of their time in their room, and food and drinks are brought to them.

Japan is one of the countries with a low divorce rate, but that’s not because all marriages are smooth.

The reason is because many Japanese women choose to stay at home and be housewives, and divorce will cause them economic trouble.

In some places in Japan, there are still arranged marriages, and it is not appropriate to fall in love before marriage.

Are you so used to meeting your loved ones every day (not including FA brothers)?
