Japan - The Strange Country

Japan is one of the most technology advanced and interesting country in the world. It’s a country that preserved the traditional culture and yet trendy and modern. From the sources from the Internet, we always read a lot of articles saying that Japan is a strange country with unique sense of lifestyle. But how well we know actually? Thanks to Kenichi, he put up an interesting info-graphic video of how he think that Japan is indeed a strange country!

Instead of using Japanese point of view, he narrated the video with foreigners’ viewpoint. He briefly summarize it into eight categories. The points are really interesting and I certainly can feel that what he said is definitely correct because I experienced it when I was in Japan last year! Please watch the video and enjoy. Perhaps after watching, your perception towards Japan changed?
