Cobalt225 a video about positive aspects doesn't get clicks... I have a Japanese wife and I have a good relationship with her parents, I think. The biggest issue perhaps is that you don't really ever know what people really think, but they treat me really well as have all of her family. But it's probably a lot to do with me stepping up to meet their expectations a lot more than maybe a lot of westerners would, like I committed to and followed through on marrying her right away and very quickly after that we had a son, in fact the first in that branch of the clan/family and I follow and respect their customs completely. But they are not accepting of not following their customs, at least not old school traditional people. Like if you have a tattoo you are a criminal and not allowed anywhere near anyone like that, just to pick one thing. Like in the video... they simply don't care about what western people or any people of any other culture do, they judge everything and everyone through their own cultural lens. And you can't hide tattoos from your in laws in Japan because you have to go to Onsen with them eventually and wear sort of small yukata. They don't tolerate piercings either for example, or any voluntary body modification, because they see it as an insult to your ancestors who contributed to the way you were born. I understand that attitude from their perspective but it's very difficult for most westerners to understand.

It's so sad that the mother had to rent a fake father figure for her child. I don't think she should have lied to her daughter for 9 years. I think the Japanese obsession with keeping up appearances is going a bit too far and will result in severely psychologically damaged individuals in the future.
@teresaw8677

i agree, she shouldn’t have lied. maybe just been upfront about it. like “i met him at an agency that helps people, and he wanted to help us. so he’ll be living here for a while.. kind of like a father figure.” something like that. i’d be weirded out at first, but if they were nice and we got a long it wouldn’t be weird for too long imo.

It largely used to. There is the "wabi sabi" philiosophy of zen Buddhism which states to appreciate the beauties in imperfection, admiring the simple elegance of, for example, a crooked path on a foggy Autumn morning. Perhaps this idea has become lost with Westernization, which admires the perfect symmetry of a 6 pillared state building or the nuclear family. I think a lot of the world would benefit from using Wabi Sabi as a guide to relax and admire the imperfections of life just as the great Japanese philosophers of old did.

When the husband who lost his wife was explaining how he got angry at his wife for being sick, I immediately recognised he had caregiver burnout. I’ve read plenty of cases where this happens where the primary caregiver starts to get irritated and lash out on the person they are caring for. I just wanted to say that there is nothing wrong with this and just because you are irritable and tired does not mean you are selfish and mean. We’re all humans and the buildup of stress will eventually get to you. I know a lot of caregivers feel guilty about having these thoughts and they end up becoming more stressed out because of it. What I do suggest to those experiencing caregiver burnout is to seek counselling or therapy. There IS therapy made for this so don’t be afraid to reach out.

My wife passed away only a few months after we married. People always say things like "It's ok to move on", but they don't understand how difficult that it. Even five years later dating someone new seems like a joke. My heart belongs to her. I can absolutely understand how a rental wife would be a thing. There's an inherent need for social intimacy, but you're unable to find it through traditional connections. The illusion is better than being alone. When the client said "(I'm) not happy at all. I can't be happy", that really hit hard. My heart goes out to these people. I hope he does find happiness again in his life.

I have the feeling it’s more about not creating any kind of conflicts. This seems to happen inside a family but is also true when it comes to conflicts that might be taken outwards to save face in front of others. It’s almost as if people can’t take on difficult topics that will effect people’s emotions. Hence they are stuck with their own emotions and can’t solve them because often this would effect another person. And it seems logical when you think about what the man in the video said. Often Japanese children are alone at home and the parents are working late. It saves trouble when the children don’t make trouble...but to not stir trouble they lack communication. You can’t use what you haven’t learned....

I don't even know his face, I hardly know his name. I've never met him, and I know nothing about him, yet he's apparently been alive all my life, and I've heard nothing.

I’ve had many personal contacts with young and old Japanese through work and hosting. Unfortunately the problem stems in their culture of politeness at the expense of suppressing true feelings. It has been ingrained in their psyche but the younger generation is becoming more westernised (for good and bad) because of global social media. Each and every culture - yours and mine - is imperfect. I’m a 73 year old Jamaican-born Chinese married to a European and lives in Australia - that’s the background for my observation.

This was definitely one of the best Asian boss videos I've seen hands down. The more videos you watch, the more pieces get put together on how Japanese society functions and the sort of cultural balance needed between (overt) saving face and (covert) direct honesty. It seems like if you're an honest person in Japan you can do really well by becoming a no. 1 host/hostess and when you're older, become a rental family member lol. The concern lies in why "honesty as a business" is such a lucrative industry. I wonder what's more profitable in Japan...Honne or Tatemae? The actual reason this CEO started this business is quite frankly, surprising, noble and illuminates the systematic disregard for anything that is outside of a nuclear family. I thought maybe a psychologist would help...but Japan has psychologists...and the issues that require Family Romance's services are more 'service' than 'solution'.

If the child grows up into a well adjusted and strong person then they will be able to take it.

As an adult, this sounds cruel and unjust. But children are still in their development age where they learn the concepts of the society (morals) and mentally grow. Without these strong foundations and ability to create relationships, the children went be able to lead relatively stable and normal life.

Good topic. But for Asian culture it is usually about saving face, so if you bring shame upon your family they'd rather cut you off than deal with the repercussions of said shame. It varies from culture to culture just how extreme they are about it, but yeah.

A lot of Japanese people come to Korea but the purpose of some of them is not sightseeing. It is said that Japan invented Spy Cam Porn. I saw Japanese men repeatedly arrested for installing spy cam in Korea. Japan still uses the Rising Sun Flag. The Rising Sun flag was the flag symbolizing the Japanese army during the period of Japanese imperialism. The flag does mean Hakenkreuz for Asians. These prove that Japanese people have little moral. And Japan is very famous for their Porn Video. We should prevent Japanese Porn culture from breaking our social morals.

Asian countries including Korea hate Japan because they do not apologize to the victims of the past and recognize their poor history compared to Germany. In addition, if Japan continues in this situation, Japan is not able to have a happy future with Japan and other Asian countries because Japanese people are educating Japanese students to misleading history. Poor Japanese people. So sad.

Yet there are businesses like this in the west that, although not exactly the same, will give you a number so your wife, husband or boss can call to check up on you. The wife/husband will get the secretary, boss or workmates who'll say s/he's been there all day or s/he's in a meeting. The boss can be told similar, but from someone pretending to be a wife/husband to say the employee is ill or at a funeral.
