She is so beautiful! You can feel her talent and maturity even through video. I hope you can share an interview with her after she has spent time as a geiko! Thank you for sharing, it is rare to see such a precious moment in a practicing artists life.
Great video! 👏👏👏 😊 I didn't know she also likes to draw 😍 I would love to see those beautiful drawings ✏️☺️ It was super interesting. The chance to see how a maiko is doing on her sakkou period is always super special.🌟🥰 Thank you for this video 😸🌟
CONGRATULATIONS to Yuriha-san! She will certainly be a wonderful GEIKO in Kyoto. She is already so poised and elegant. Its so interesting to me that middle school girls from all over Japan continue to make the journey to Kyoto to enter this traditional Japanese profession. Did she have any problems learning the Kyoto dialect? Thanks for letting her speak for herself... BTW The teeth blackening tradition is a bit disconcerting . I had seen it before and thought it was some kind of food dye. But I was not expecting it to be wax and charcoal! Live and learn!. Only in Japan...
Ah yes, Kyoto dialect is a little bit challenging at the beginning for everyone, but Yuriha speaks SO elegantly, it was a huge pleasure for me to translate the interview and make subtitles! :) Ohaguro is a melted wax, it doesn't stain the teeth at all! It washes out quickly
@@Geishakai Thanks for helping us foreigners learn more about this fascinating aspect of traditional Japanese culture. I am aware that so many of the Maikos and even Geikos love their ANIME and MANGA. A blend of the "old Japan" with the "new Japan" -and it works!
