Watch live with me!! This video took a butt-tone of time and effort to shoot and edit. Not to mention the support of the people being interviewed 🥹 Please help support by giving this video a like! I’d really appreciate the love and support. 🥰
Sis I’m over here crying. This made me feel so happy to see my people thriving in Japan. This representation is so important. Thank you so much for this gift 🥹😭
They see you as an AMERICAN dummy not a black person. They already know America is full of different races. Either way your a foreigner to them not a skin color???
As a black woman looking to move to Japan in a few short months, I can’t thank you enough for this video. I’ve been struggling with the pros and cons of going to Japan as a black American woman, and even though I’ve studied Mandarin and Japanese already, I still wondered if I’d be accepted. Needless to say, this video’s timing could not have been better for me! Wishing you and everyone in this video lots of love!
Well being in the areas these folks are helps. Or in the expat areas, then branch off into other places where more locals are so you can be more emersed into the culture. There is another persons channel, japanese man, where he interviewed black people there and the foreign black people gave great points. The jamaican man said as long as you know the social ques and etiquette over there the Japanese people will treat you well. If you do not you won't get treated too well. Lol.
They're running over there under guise of work- teaching English but really after their 🧬 Genes, want that 'Good Hair's Weave $100-$300-$500. They don't really want them over there, interviews subliminal asking "when are u getting ur sh...and leaving? There nice with it though
@@shellynwillis4342 There was some video I saw last month, I think it was by a japanese person. Ah, it was a short. It was just that about Japanese people asking foreigners when are you leaving. Lol. Really something. I wonder if they do that in other asian nations too?
I'm white but I think what you did is an incredible service to the community and the way you edited your video is fantastic. That's knowledge I wanted to have for myself as well - I mean, I studied Japanese culture in my anthropology major so I am particularly aware of certain codes and the racist attitude of certain Japanese people towards other ethnicities, but the black experience in Japan has always been something that isn't that talked about - and you mentioned it at the beginning of your video how tough it is black to be on RUclips even, which sucks because I think the quality of your videos is incredible and the amount of care you put into your editing is phenomenal - I know the likes of Sharla and such have been doing this for 10+ years but I would've absolutely expected your channel to be at their level if not more since you post so regularly, and I'm really pissed to know it's because of YT algorithms putting you down (I mean, allegedly). Anyway, just had to say I love your content and I admire your resilience and your ambitious attitude with your channel. LOVE YA!
🥲 Omg your message was so sweet. Please never change. I really appreciate the support and kind words and the ability to empathize with others outside of your race. Thank you, for watching 🥰
I often meet foreigners who say, "Japanese are racist!" Isn't that exactly racism? I don't think anyone knows of any incidents where Japanese people have been verbally abusive or violent because of their race. I have encountered severe racism in the West (e.g., I was verbally abused, insulted, had my bag taken away and thrown in US), and I think racism in the West is serious and I worry that they are not aware that they are the most racist people in the world.
When I was about to move to Japan, I was very anxious about my blackness and how it would be. I found your RUclips channel some weeks before my move and it gave me great comfort. Now I have been living here for six months and is has been truly amazing. I love love love this video!
I’m white American but my daughter is black and we are living in Japan. You’ve summed it up perfectly! This video is so well made. I can imagine when the idea of this video was born and reaching out to all these lovely people to plan it, then edit it and now to air and watch it must be so fulfilling. Sundai you have outdone yourself and should be so proud! I’ve been a long time fan and have been watching corny and marintia but now I have to find Kyles shop :) RUclips!!! Get it together! This channel should be way on another level! 💗💗💗💗
If your daughter is biologically yours, born of you, then she’s not Black, she’s biracial(half white and half Black). Only 2 Black people can give birth to Black children
@@KantoCafe715 Mam, everyone can tell when somebody is not completely black. Yes there are exceptions, but those do not make the rule. The same way mixed people don't look white, they don't look black. The same way mixed people don't get treated the same as white people, they don't get treated the same as black people. It's not that hard a concept to grasp. Be for real now.
Girrrl , you never fail to disappoint! 😍 It was so interesting to watch. You did an excellent job representing a variety of work/backgrounds and opinions of being black in Japan. Thanks for this opportunity and being such a great interviewee. Our chat video that's coming is an organised mess and I love it hahah 💖You are so fun! 😆See you soon love! 💖
Sundai!!!! It was such an honor to be a part of this amazing vlog. Thank you so much for taking the time and energy to create this very informative content. So much love, hardwork and time went into this. Otsukaresama deshita ❤️
I’m not black but hearing Hilda’s story about the love she puts into doing people’s hair and making them feel beautiful made me so emotional. What a wonderful video, you never miss Sundai. 💞💞
We've finally met your hairdresser ! She's sooo funny ! 😂 Thank you so much for this video Sundai. I've watched plenty of these in the past but yours is so comforting. I also love how informative the video is while still maintaining an entertainment element, your editing is not take for granted 💞 I want to visit Korea and move to Japan and this video is such an encouragement towards that dream ❤️
I think coming to terms with the fact that nothing in life will be perfect is the safest bet. So don't expect a specific thing to be. I actually cried a little (from laughing lmao) because this video was so well down and so sweet to watch! Especially the older generation of foreigners living in Japan. I appreciate the multiple different views. Even though I always ignore those street interview videos lmaoo The topic of being black/poc in Japan is so important and I genuinely recommend everyone (black or POC) ask these questions, seek out answers, etc. But to not dwell on it too much for too long. It can truly become draining. You get hundreds of videos saying it's amazing to be black/poc in a specific country and hundreds of videos saying the total opposite. Get your answer, come to terms that no country or place is rid of bad people, and keep it moving!😭 I appreciate how informative and laid back this video was. It wasn't "too" serious or...biased? I guess lmao but I usually ignore anyone who can't see the good AND the bad in a country whenever they give out their opinions. If you're realistic and honest with people and yourself then you yourself should expect a great experience if you travel/move abroad! A great experience will never be a perfect one.
"Find the job you want see what the qualifications are and work your way backwards" Great advice, if you don't have an inside connection, it is advisable to always see what the minimum qualifications are for your desired field and begin working towards obtaining that. It'll also help you see if that is what you really want to do. Great video, beautiful people 🙂♥
I recently left Japan because I didn’t want to teach English anymore but… I loved living there… I regret leaving but I think I needed to take a small break and I think I will go back once I’m feeling 100%
I think people are expecting negative responses. Personally when I lived in Japan back in 2013 I loved it. I was American I wasn’t just black. I could finally be myself and be free. One day I will visit again. I lived in Kyoto people were so quiet, clean, and nice. If they had any questions they came with a respectful attitude. It’s a great place to be as a black person.
I feel that is always what people expect when asking these questions over and over because several RUclipsrs did videos with these questions but it seems they are never satisfied until they hear a single negative response.
I truly want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. This made me cry and inspired me all together to keep going. It is my dream to move to Japan one day. Watching this video has made me truly connect with my dream all over again. I was just thinking about it this morning on how I am working hard to get there. You have gave me confirmation that it will happen. I am grateful for your hard work on this video. It was fantastic. I am so proud of where you have came from and where to are now. I know you will have great things coming to you and more added to what you have now. I hope to meet you one day. Thank you again. 🥰 Keep up the great work.
Really enjoyed watching this video! I love seeing black people happy and thriving ❤️ I would go to Japan for the Anime and Culture but I don't know how much I would be able to handle standing out so much. I'm so used to seeing black people everywhere where I am(South Africa) I don't know how id manage there but it would definitely be out of my comfort zone and you know what they say about that...
I feel ya, though I’m not black(south East Asian) I get stared at from time to time in the US. It can be uncomfortable but you’ll get use it. Don’t let negativity stop you from living a fulfilling life. Ps. I’d love to visit South Africa one day
This was very well done, informative, realistic, but also funny. I love the tech catfish call out 😂 Japan is so advanced in some areas (trains, robotics, auto, etc) but they love paperwork, like every application has to be paper based, and stamped a hundred times, and kept in storage. I guess this may be why they have such great stationary stores 🤔
Honestly this video was necessary for me! I’m currently living in Korea and I’ve just been feeling like my time here is coming to an end and just didn’t know where I want to go next. This video just gave me some things to think about. I’m definitely going to plan a trip to Japan when things open up and see how I feel. Thanks for this video 💜💜💜
@@7279654 yes, I am a teacher. There's no time cap on being a teacher here. I know some people who've been teachers here for between 10-15 years. So it's really just a matter of if that's your career goal and what you want to do, especially for that long.
From one person of color to the next, I'm also a transplant American, who is from Trinidad and Tobago but grew up in SoCal, but now live in Đà Nẵng Việt Nam, please allow to say this was the most inspiring segment of being black in Japan I've ever seen, very positive and very well done, my hats off to you, plus you look like a younger version of my buddy Curtis sister who's lives back in Southern California.... I actually shared your video to various friends.
Even just being a black viewer on RUclips is challenging! Can’t even imagine the struggles you have as a creator. Just know that one of few reasons I’m still using this app is to watch your content. This was so enlightening for me, thanks for all the hard work you put into this video & channel
I am white and pale as one can get. I am turning 30 this year and went back to uni because i have a dream of living in japan x) will become and IT-tech and try to get a job through a Swedish company with office in Japan. Also, regarding deodorant. On the main road of the shopping street in ueno there is a house in the middle just after the statue. If you go to the basement you will find another food market, where they also sell foreign deodorant :) So if you need deo that is a good spot :)
as a white german, sitting here and watching this type of content of your, Sundai, i really really enjoing it! You took so much work in it, all this people (of course you too!) are such inspirational humans. I love all the different characters and backgrounds in here. this is so imporant AND interessting to watch! i love your "regular" content, but this video hits different (in a really good way)
I wish I could LOVE this video cause liking it isn't enough. I am moving next year and I relate to all of your guests in one or more ways! I'm moving to Chubu next year and I can't wait to get my hair done with Hilda and try Kyle's treats! Your videos are always so inspiring. I'm so excited to begin my life in Japan!
Wow this is so great to watch. Speaking as a Black American Military Veteran, for so long Blacks were feeling like they were not welcome in Asian countries since a lot of Asian beliefs are based on Western racism and treatment of Black people, as well as perpetuated stereotypes by Western media. Your guest speakers are but a very small sample of the possibilities for Blacks to thrive more so in Japan than in Korea and/or China. I have viewed a number of vlogs from Black people living in other Asian countries, where the issue of racism, being a foreigner, interracial relationships and misogyny are issues to consider before moving there. I have watched several vlogs where some Korean clubs actually put up signage prohibiting foreigners and up until pre-Covid; these Korean clubs went as far as openly discriminating against letting Blacks into the clubs. After being called out on social media for this blatant racism there are now more "No Foreigners" signs, to alleviate the possibility of being called out on Social media for not allowing Blacks in. I understand from other vloggers that the misogyny in both Korea a China is so prevalent , that advancement regardless of you professional knowledge; if you are a women means absolutely nothing. What made my heart flutter in this vlog was when a guest said Japanese people viewed her as a foreigner as opposed to a Black person. You did a great job. Thank you.
I’m so happy you posted this. I’ve been living in Japan for 2 yrs and struggling to do my own protective styles :( I will definitely be visiting her shop
Honestly love this. I usually avoid Black in *insert country* videos because they're so just...ergh But since it was you I knew it would be great. Not only did you get so many perspectives, there isn't any sensationalisation. I've been here for two years this month. I'm chill, no one has acted with hostility towards me. Does racism disappear once you get into Japan territory? No but like Kyle said, it's imported, they don't have any stakes in preserving that status quo so they don't care enough to hold on to it after actually meeting a black person. If anyone wants to live in japan, racism isn't going to be the obstacle.
I’m looking forward to this. I’ve been hearing about some police discrimination in Japan and it’s disturbing. I was thinking of moving to Japan upon retirement (a long way off but I’m a planner). I won’t go anywhere outside the USA to experience the same discrimination I’ve experienced here. Not saying it’s intolerable in the US… but the enemy you’ve know is easier to deal with than an unknown enemy. Where can we go that’s not impoverished, stable economically, safe to live, peaceful, and be accepted not as a black person but as a human being? If no such place exists for black people… so be it. But I have hope such a place exists.
I feel like what Hilda said about being a resilient people is what makes living most places possible but not always ideal. There are good and bad people everywhere so I guess it just depends on who you run into sadly. I am from the US and some people who aren't from here may think it is completely dangerous It really depends on where you are like any country. I would like to travel to Japan for a long vacation but I don't know if I could live there permanently. 🙂
Honestly I’ve traveled to a lot of places and japan is great. The safety is unmatched. Police bother blacks is RARE unlike in America where they actually kill you, plant “items” on you , frame you, and pull u over for no reason. Also the Philippines was great in my experience in terms of racism. They were very friendly
@@SundaiLove Thanks for the response. I’m still continuing my Japanese lessons and I value seeing the positivity of this channel. But, the other channel I watch was grim. At the same time, America is getting worse for us not better. I want to leave America when I retire. I just need to find the best option. Japan was my first choice…
It was sad to hear you say "if such a place exists" just make sure you're the best human being you can be and travel outside of the U.S. The blessings will come.🙏🏽
Sundai!! 🥰I was on vacation when you went LIVE! I am so flippen proud of you girl! 🤩🦋 such a beautiful representation of the black experience in Japan. In high school, (35 years ago)🤯😮 I was an exchange student , this was practically unheard of for black girls back then. My friends thought I was crazy. I returned to the United States unstoppable 🏃♀, and continued to travel. I always tell young black people to travel or even get into an exchange program. Your video continues to inspire the young and the seasoned! You are doing it right Sundai! I appreciate you so much! Thank you!❤
Came in here through your collab with Corny and now I've spent the last 3 HOURS! 3 hours! 3 HOURS! watching all of your recent videos. Love the content, music, EVERAYTHANG. Absolute fave are the inspirational stuff you always have peppered in there. Keep doing you, boo! You're pretty damn awesome.
12:30 this just hit deep. This is a subtle, yet strong critique that echoes so many thoughts and emotions! AND I'M FROM EUROPE. and siiiis 13:55 I feel you, being an Asian dude, growing up in Switzerland in a village and spending all my school life till adulthood as "the only visible foreigner", I felt that. Asian dudes are already one of the least desireable ethnicities/races in the West, I felt like the reference point for the whole Asian continent for everything.
After my time in the military, US Navy, I had moved to Osaka in 1991 to 1993. I later returned to Japan in 2003 and left in 2005. Being a black man in Japan, i had few experiences most of it was out of curiosity not of racism, I made some wonderful friends and the streets of Osaka were extremely clean. You just have to step out of your comfort zone and experience living in Japan. I spoke a little japanese but was able to do daily tasks and socialize with people. Now , after many years away from Osaka, I plan to return to Japan to live and make a contribution to the culture and society.
Great video and content with a positive and fun vibe from everyone. I am sure this helped and encouraged a lot of people. The bakery owner and hairdresser were especially enjoyable to watch and hear from, just very good energy. All the best!
Sundai this was absolutely amazing. I love seeing us do big things outside of the US. I wish I knew Japan was an option when I was younger and not already established as I am now. Thank you for the hard work you put in for this vlog. I know this will help a lot of folks make that leap.
I can relate to Tiff. I'm not black but I was born in Western Samoa and then from the age of 3 to 7 I lived in a country in the middle east called Oman where we had friends from all over the world. Then we moved to back to New Zealand where my dad is from and I never felt like I fit in. I always missed our life in Oman and resented my parents for moving us. As an adult I had the opportunity to move back to the middle east, to the UAE. I lived in Abu Dhabi for 5 years and I really enjoyed the expat lifestyle - it was great closure for me too because I finally understood why my parents left. I still prefer being an expat to living in NZ though! The downside is making great friends and then having to make new friends because people are always returning to their home countries eventually.
This video is a blessing, I've been contemplating going to japan. I've always want to climb Mt. Fuji. I pray I run into one of you one day, I would love to have a conversation, and I will be frequenting Aunties Salon ( Naija girl here representing!!! ) and Uncles Bakery on my journey there next year. Open the Borders Japan 🙏
My daughter is obsessed with the Asian culture and talked all through high school about moving to Japan. I sent her this video thank you so much now I’m not as worried ❤
Sundai you did the dang thang. I’ve lived in Japan for 8 years and my beautiful black sistas. Explain the experience being black in Japan to the tee🫶🏾💕 It is a peaceful place and so beautiful 🥹
Superb, Sundai. This is an excellent gift to the community and encouragement to visit Japan. I sincerely appreciate your content and presence on RUclips, but I want to say a special thank you for this one! The energy, diversity of experiences, and perspectives is excellent. I am so proud of how you represent the Bay Area so well.
I have been waiting for you to drop a video! How are you Sundai Love? And all of Sundai family that is watching right now? Because we are family over here💕💕💕
this vid will be saved for future references as a 18 year old nigerian girl born in spain wanting to live in japan after uni (つ≧▽≦)つ also the racism stuff was a bit concern for me but this alleviates it thank you so much sundai, this is extremely helpful! esp for ppl who dont have who to talk about this❤️
They're running over there under guise of work- teaching English but really after their 🧬 Genes, want that 'Good Hair's Weave $100-$300-$500. They don't really want them over there, interviews subliminal asking "when are u getting ur sh...and leaving? There nice with it though
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who wanted to move for anime 😅. I have alway been in love with Japan… I want the culture, country sides, and life style. I was kinda on the fence because they always made it seem like we wasn’t welcome. I learned so much from this video.
The fact that some of you have gone over a decade without a relationship with a Japanese person and the fact that no one sits next to you on a train says it all.
Thank you SO much for this. I’m not trying to live in Japan but I’ve dreamed of traveling there for many many years. It’s amazing to get the intel from a black female perspective. Your channel is a huge ball of light and laughter.🎉❤🤗
Wonderful video! This is also my most asked question as well, and no matter how many videos us Black creators make.....this question continues to persist. I still like this videos though because you can see the variety of Black people who are here in Japan
I loved this episode. I have been living in Misawa, Japan, for 3 years as a military member and will be here for another 3 years, with the intention to live here once my service is done. This video was touching and encouraging as I am an African American female who also wants to start a business in Japan. This video has inspired me even more to prepare for the next step. Also, thank you. After watching this video, I found a business that can do braids, which I intend to book soon, and I will be checking out the bakery when I come up to Tokyo next week. :)
LMAOO Marintia is right. My mom's in Ghana, and she's fighting everyone over the simplest thing. It's so strange to me just do your job properly it's not hard TT. Love this Sundai thank you
This is so inspirational. I prefer seeing this content than older expats living in japan who are so jaded yet continue to live there. I love seeing people living "unconventional" lives too! I've been living in Korea for almost 2 years now and worry about how my future is gonna pan out, but all that matters is that I'm enjoying myself and slowly building more skills and being open to new opportunities along the way :) Although if it weren't for the border closures in 2020, I'd be right there with you all in Japan! Seeing everyone in the video talking about their life experiences and living in a foreign country for so many years, even decades, is very comforting
Oh man! This is superb content! Your guests were so likeable and you evidently had such great chemistry with them. You asked all the relevant questions and edited it all to perfection. We should start paying for a subscription at this point.
Thanks for this, so very interesting. I am planning on visiting Japan next May, if Japan opens up to regular tourism by then. My dad was there in the 80's in the military and he loved it there and it was mainly because he felt safe.
Your Living in Korea video was actually my introduction to seeing your channel! I’m currently finishing my bachelors to move there soon! Thank you for your informational videos Sundai!!
This was a REALLY good interview. Some of the things mentioned I even experienced at times as well when I lived in Okinawa and then would visit Tokyo. It was interesting the way foreigners in general are viewed and in different locations and even as a foreign woman as well. All in all my experience was good, and only peppered lightly with some random or strange moments that were maybe uncomfortable or just a cultural difference. I really enjoyed hearing this voice and perspective as a whole. Well done Sundai with this interview and cultivating the different age groups, different country backgrounds, different jobs and locations and even relationship status's. So impressed! =)
I was excited for this video from the moment it started. Really enjoyed it, thank you so much Sundai. Also we appreciate how much you were engaging on the live with us, love that, love you. Thanks again 😌❤️
Sundai! THIS WAS FAN-FREAKIN-TASTIC! Thank you for taking the time out to make this video. Seriously, the editing and the way you set everything up was genius. Great work, seriously! This deserves recognition. Someone needs to pay you to have this video featured on some big news/cultural channel. Love you for this! 💗💐👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sundai you did such an incredible job with this video! It would've taken so much effort to pull it all together from the interviews to the editing and all that comes in between. Love that you did this. It was really interesting hearing everyone's personal experiences and advice. It still blows my mind about how terrible the racism is in America tho 😥 Thank you to all your guests for sharing their stories too ❤️❤️❤️ We're certain this video is going to help many people and it's thanks to you and everyone that made this video happen 💕💕🙂🙏
Thanks so much for this video Sundai!❤ For the last couple of years I've wanted to stay and live in Japan for a year, but I didn't know where to start or what to expect. Your channel has definitely helped with that (along with general entertainment ofc). But this video especially? Loved it! Not to mention I found some more awesome black people to follow!
Sundai!!!!!!!!! I’m 6:43 in and am already in love with this video. I don’t usually comment or like videos. However, today Ms. Ma’am…this video is receiving all of the above. Well done!!!
I really enjoyed this video, I love everyone's personality especially the teacher (UK) and the hairdresser, the older gentleman is such a wholesome dad.
I never missed a dryer so much in my life like I do now! The struggle is real! This video was so enlighten and so goood! I know who to go too to get my hair done! ☺️☺️
I loved this video!!!!!! So down to earth interview style and a genuine positive attitude towards the subject « Black in Japan « such diversity in your choice of interviewees. Good job on a way to often asked question. Bravo 🎊
This was great! My 11 year old has already expressed her love for Japanese culture and plans to move to Japan. Thanks for sharing. i feel a bit better about my future daughter's experience
You’ve outdone yourself with this video. Are you starting a media company? Or pitching a documentary series to Netflix or something? Because you should. The quality of this video is too good for just RUclips.
This video was great! So insightful not only for living in japan but anywhere you want! I love your content, it always motivate me to do what I want to do🙌
This video was so beautiful and inspirational I Thank you for making this video any back steps I had for moving to Japan washed away this video has lit a fire in me to work hard to be able to make my dream come true and live in Japan one day
Glad RUclips suggested this channel. I’m lived in Japan years ago while I was in the Navy, I’m coming back to visit in April to make some content and can’t wait
Watch live with me!! This video took a butt-tone of time and effort to shoot and edit. Not to mention the support of the people being interviewed 🥹 Please help support by giving this video a like! I’d really appreciate the love and support. 🥰

As a black woman looking to move to Japan in a few short months, I can’t thank you enough for this video. I’ve been struggling with the pros and cons of going to Japan as a black American woman, and even though I’ve studied Mandarin and Japanese already, I still wondered if I’d be accepted. Needless to say, this video’s timing could not have been better for me! Wishing you and everyone in this video lots of love!
do not worry you will be fine there 😍
Well being in the areas these folks are helps. Or in the expat areas, then branch off into other places where more locals are so you can be more emersed into the culture.
There is another persons channel, japanese man, where he interviewed black people there and the foreign black people gave great points. The jamaican man said as long as you know the social ques and etiquette over there the Japanese people will treat you well. If you do not you won't get treated too well. Lol.

@@shellynwillis4342 There was some video I saw last month, I think it was by a japanese person. Ah, it was a short. It was just that about Japanese people asking foreigners when are you leaving. Lol. Really something. I wonder if they do that in other asian nations too?
@@marlak4203 these types of videos leave that part out they focus on the positive but ignore the negative side of living in Japan
I know that this hasn't started yet but it needs a part 2. We also appreciate all the effort that the video took
Thank you love
Also’ check out the Black in Japan RUclips channel!!!
I'm white but I think what you did is an incredible service to the community and the way you edited your video is fantastic. That's knowledge I wanted to have for myself as well - I mean, I studied Japanese culture in my anthropology major so I am particularly aware of certain codes and the racist attitude of certain Japanese people towards other ethnicities, but the black experience in Japan has always been something that isn't that talked about - and you mentioned it at the beginning of your video how tough it is black to be on RUclips even, which sucks because I think the quality of your videos is incredible and the amount of care you put into your editing is phenomenal - I know the likes of Sharla and such have been doing this for 10+ years but I would've absolutely expected your channel to be at their level if not more since you post so regularly, and I'm really pissed to know it's because of YT algorithms putting you down (I mean, allegedly). Anyway, just had to say I love your content and I admire your resilience and your ambitious attitude with your channel. LOVE YA!
🥲 Omg your message was so sweet. Please never change. I really appreciate the support and kind words and the ability to empathize with others outside of your race. Thank you, for watching 🥰
True ❤

I often meet foreigners who say, "Japanese are racist!" Isn't that exactly racism? I don't think anyone knows of any incidents where Japanese people have been verbally abusive or violent because of their race. I have encountered severe racism in the West (e.g., I was verbally abused, insulted, had my bag taken away and thrown in US), and I think racism in the West is serious and I worry that they are not aware that they are the most racist people in the world.
@@thechikuwa284 that’s exactly what this video is saying
I love how the people in this video are from different backgrounds. This is perspective to the fullest definition
When I was about to move to Japan, I was very anxious about my blackness and how it would be. I found your RUclips channel some weeks before my move and it gave me great comfort. Now I have been living here for six months and is has been truly amazing. I love love love this video!
So happy to here
@@SundaiLove
I’m white American but my daughter is black and we are living in Japan. You’ve summed it up perfectly!
This video is so well made. I can imagine when the idea of this video was born and reaching out to all these lovely people to plan it, then edit it and now to air and watch it must be so fulfilling.
Sundai you have outdone yourself and should be so proud! I’ve been a long time fan and have been watching corny and marintia but now I have to find Kyles shop :)
RUclips!!! Get it together! This channel should be way on another level!
💗💗💗💗
Thanx so much 🥲🥹
If your daughter is biologically yours, born of you, then she’s not Black, she’s biracial(half white and half Black). Only 2 Black people can give birth to Black children
Your daughter ain’t black if you’re her biological parents. Mixed people don’t face the same issues a black people.
@@frenchgirl5878I’m guessing some people can’t tell if someone is mixed. They might appear completely black to some, depending on various things.!
@@KantoCafe715 Mam, everyone can tell when somebody is not completely black. Yes there are exceptions, but those do not make the rule. The same way mixed people don't look white, they don't look black. The same way mixed people don't get treated the same as white people, they don't get treated the same as black people. It's not that hard a concept to grasp. Be for real now.
Girrrl , you never fail to disappoint! 😍 It was so interesting to watch. You did an excellent job representing a variety of work/backgrounds and opinions of being black in Japan. Thanks for this opportunity and being such a great interviewee. Our chat video that's coming is an organised mess and I love it hahah 💖You are so fun! 😆See you soon love! 💖
😂 I’m a mess. Thanks so much for being a part especially in that wild heat!
"you never fail to disappoint" it's not a compliment ahauahsush
What?? @@gabrielasilva3561
Sundai!!!! It was such an honor to be a part of this amazing vlog. Thank you so much for taking the time and energy to create this very informative content. So much love, hardwork and time went into this. Otsukaresama deshita ❤️
Yay thanks so much for being a part and sharing your side! I appreciate it
Hi Ijelala. Good to see a Nigerian being represented. I’m planning on coming to Japan soonest and hopefully, visit your salon. Naija for life 👏
Please ijelala, where is your saloon? I am in Tokyo. I wish to make my hair.
I’m not black but hearing Hilda’s story about the love she puts into doing people’s hair and making them feel beautiful made me so emotional. What a wonderful video, you never miss Sundai. 💞💞
Hi Melissa
We've finally met your hairdresser ! She's sooo funny ! 😂
Thank you so much for this video Sundai. I've watched plenty of these in the past but yours is so comforting. I also love how informative the video is while still maintaining an entertainment element, your editing is not take for granted 💞 I want to visit Korea and move to Japan and this video is such an encouragement towards that dream ❤️
I think coming to terms with the fact that nothing in life will be perfect is the safest bet. So don't expect a specific thing to be. I actually cried a little (from laughing lmao) because this video was so well down and so sweet to watch! Especially the older generation of foreigners living in Japan. I appreciate the multiple different views. Even though I always ignore those street interview videos lmaoo
The topic of being black/poc in Japan is so important and I genuinely recommend everyone (black or POC) ask these questions, seek out answers, etc. But to not dwell on it too much for too long. It can truly become draining. You get hundreds of videos saying it's amazing to be black/poc in a specific country and hundreds of videos saying the total opposite. Get your answer, come to terms that no country or place is rid of bad people, and keep it moving!😭
I appreciate how informative and laid back this video was. It wasn't "too" serious or...biased? I guess lmao but I usually ignore anyone who can't see the good AND the bad in a country whenever they give out their opinions. If you're realistic and honest with people and yourself then you yourself should expect a great experience if you travel/move abroad! A great experience will never be a perfect one.
"Find the job you want see what the qualifications are and work your way backwards" Great advice, if you don't have an inside connection, it is advisable to always see what the minimum qualifications are for your desired field and begin working towards obtaining that. It'll also help you see if that is what you really want to do. Great video, beautiful people 🙂♥
I recently left Japan because I didn’t want to teach English anymore but… I loved living there… I regret leaving but I think I needed to take a small break and I think I will go back once I’m feeling 100%
I think people are expecting negative responses. Personally when I lived in Japan back in 2013 I loved it. I was American I wasn’t just black. I could finally be myself and be free. One day I will visit again. I lived in Kyoto people were so quiet, clean, and nice. If they had any questions they came with a respectful attitude. It’s a great place to be as a black person.
Just got back after a month. I do want to live there and Kyoto is one of my top picks along with Kanazawa.
I feel that is always what people expect when asking these questions over and over because several RUclipsrs did videos with these questions but it seems they are never satisfied until they hear a single negative response.
I truly want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. This made me cry and inspired me all together to keep going. It is my dream to move to Japan one day. Watching this video has made me truly connect with my dream all over again. I was just thinking about it this morning on how I am working hard to get there. You have gave me confirmation that it will happen. I am grateful for your hard work on this video. It was fantastic. I am so proud of where you have came from and where to are now. I know you will have great things coming to you and more added to what you have now. I hope to meet you one day. Thank you again. 🥰 Keep up the great work.
I would really love to actually meet all the creators in this video. All are amazing people. Thank you all for sharing your stories. ❤️
Really enjoyed watching this video! I love seeing black people happy and thriving ❤️ I would go to Japan for the Anime and Culture but I don't know how much I would be able to handle standing out so much. I'm so used to seeing black people everywhere where I am(South Africa) I don't know how id manage there but it would definitely be out of my comfort zone and you know what they say about that...
I feel ya, though I’m not black(south East Asian) I get stared at from time to time in the US. It can be uncomfortable but you’ll get use it. Don’t let negativity stop you from living a fulfilling life. Ps. I’d love to visit South Africa one day
This was very well done, informative, realistic, but also funny.
I love the tech catfish call out 😂 Japan is so advanced in some areas (trains, robotics, auto, etc) but they love paperwork, like every application has to be paper based, and stamped a hundred times, and kept in storage. I guess this may be why they have such great stationary stores 🤔
It's like the country I born and live in Guyana
It paper work and I hate it but love it for different reasons 😅
Ps
I do love my pens and books
Honestly this video was necessary for me! I’m currently living in Korea and I’ve just been feeling like my time here is coming to an end and just didn’t know where I want to go next. This video just gave me some things to think about. I’m definitely going to plan a trip to Japan when things open up and see how I feel. Thanks for this video 💜💜💜
Are you a teacher there? If so how long can you be one or is there a time cap on it?
@@7279654 yes, I am a teacher. There's no time cap on being a teacher here. I know some people who've been teachers here for between 10-15 years. So it's really just a matter of if that's your career goal and what you want to do, especially for that long.
@@katefab1028 Tysm for responding. I wonder can you get citizenship being a teacher for that long.
This is one of the best videos ive ever seen. Thank you so much to Sundai, the editor and everyone interviewed!
So kind 🥹
Omg I also went to Temple University! So cool to see people from so many walks of life living in Japan, thank you for sharing this Sundai!
Nice 😍
From one person of color to the next, I'm also a transplant American, who is from Trinidad and Tobago but grew up in SoCal, but now live in Đà Nẵng Việt Nam, please allow to say this was the most inspiring segment of being black in Japan I've ever seen, very positive and very well done, my hats off to you, plus you look like a younger version of my buddy Curtis sister who's lives back in Southern California.... I actually shared your video to various friends.
This was absolutely amazing Sundai! Netflix needs to send u a contract ASAP! Because this content needs to be seen by all!
Seriously!! RUclips needs to get it together!
🥲 thank you
Sundai this has been so incredible! Thank you for the work and love poured into it
Thanks so much 🥹
Even just being a black viewer on RUclips is challenging! Can’t even imagine the struggles you have as a creator. Just know that one of few reasons I’m still using this app is to watch your content. This was so enlightening for me, thanks for all the hard work you put into this video & channel
Being a black viewer is challenging?
Can you elaborate please?
Safer than being black in America...That is what it is like being black in Japan.
Idk where even start... The editing, sick angles ❤️, the questions, the footage, the atmosphere, this is absolutely beautiful.
I've seen all of these beautiful people in my research on being black in Japan, its so crazy seeing them all in one video.
This was done so well! I loved seeing the different point of views from black people who are all from different places and backgrounds 👏🏾
I am white and pale as one can get. I am turning 30 this year and went back to uni because i have a dream of living in japan x) will become and IT-tech and try to get a job through a Swedish company with office in Japan.
Also, regarding deodorant. On the main road of the shopping street in ueno there is a house in the middle just after the statue. If you go to the basement you will find another food market, where they also sell foreign deodorant :)
So if you need deo that is a good spot :)
as a white german, sitting here and watching this type of content of your, Sundai, i really really enjoing it! You took so much work in it, all this people (of course you too!) are such inspirational humans. I love all the different characters and backgrounds in here. this is so imporant AND interessting to watch! i love your "regular" content, but this video hits different (in a really good way)
Finde ich auch toll.
I wish I could LOVE this video cause liking it isn't enough. I am moving next year and I relate to all of your guests in one or more ways! I'm moving to Chubu next year and I can't wait to get my hair done with Hilda and try Kyle's treats! Your videos are always so inspiring. I'm so excited to begin my life in Japan!
Wow this is so great to watch. Speaking as a Black American Military Veteran, for so long Blacks were feeling like they were not welcome in Asian countries since a lot of Asian beliefs are based on Western racism and treatment of Black people, as well as perpetuated stereotypes by Western media. Your guest speakers are but a very small sample of the possibilities for Blacks to thrive more so in Japan than in Korea and/or China.
I have viewed a number of vlogs from Black people living in other Asian countries, where the issue of racism, being a foreigner, interracial relationships and misogyny are issues to consider before moving there. I have watched several vlogs where some Korean clubs actually put up signage prohibiting foreigners and up until pre-Covid; these Korean clubs went as far as openly discriminating against letting Blacks into the clubs. After being called out on social media for this blatant racism there are now more "No Foreigners" signs, to alleviate the possibility of being called out on Social media for not allowing Blacks in. I understand from other vloggers that the misogyny in both Korea a China is so prevalent , that advancement regardless of you professional knowledge; if you are a women means absolutely nothing.
What made my heart flutter in this vlog was when a guest said Japanese people viewed her as a foreigner as opposed to a Black person. You did a great job. Thank you.
I’m so happy you posted this. I’ve been living in Japan for 2 yrs and struggling to do my own protective styles :( I will definitely be visiting her shop
Honestly love this. I usually avoid Black in *insert country* videos because they're so just...ergh
But since it was you I knew it would be great. Not only did you get so many perspectives, there isn't any sensationalisation. I've been here for two years this month. I'm chill, no one has acted with hostility towards me. Does racism disappear once you get into Japan territory? No but like Kyle said, it's imported, they don't have any stakes in preserving that status quo so they don't care enough to hold on to it after actually meeting a black person. If anyone wants to live in japan, racism isn't going to be the obstacle.
Loving how you put ur hairdresser!!! Gworlll! Hi to everyone in the series! I’m crying!!!! So much love!!!!!
I’m looking forward to this. I’ve been hearing about some police discrimination in Japan and it’s disturbing. I was thinking of moving to Japan upon retirement (a long way off but I’m a planner). I won’t go anywhere outside the USA to experience the same discrimination I’ve experienced here. Not saying it’s intolerable in the US… but the enemy you’ve know is easier to deal with than an unknown enemy.
Where can we go that’s not impoverished, stable economically, safe to live, peaceful, and be accepted not as a black person but as a human being?
If no such place exists for black people… so be it. But I have hope such a place exists.
These people interviewed appear to have strong support and relationships. I suppose that helps.
I feel like what Hilda said about being a resilient people is what makes living most places possible but not always ideal. There are good and bad people everywhere so I guess it just depends on who you run into sadly. I am from the US and some people who aren't from here may think it is completely dangerous It really depends on where you are like any country. I would like to travel to Japan for a long vacation but I don't know if I could live there permanently. 🙂
Honestly I’ve traveled to a lot of places and japan is great. The safety is unmatched. Police bother blacks is RARE unlike in America where they actually kill you, plant “items” on you , frame you, and pull u over for no reason. Also the Philippines was great in my experience in terms of racism. They were very friendly
@@SundaiLove Thanks for the response. I’m still continuing my Japanese lessons and I value seeing the positivity of this channel. But, the other channel I watch was grim. At the same time, America is getting worse for us not better. I want to leave America when I retire. I just need to find the best option. Japan was my first choice…
It was sad to hear you say "if such a place exists" just make sure you're the best human being you can be and travel outside of the U.S. The blessings will come.🙏🏽
Sundai!! 🥰I was on vacation when you went LIVE! I am so flippen proud of you girl! 🤩🦋 such a beautiful representation of the black experience in Japan. In high school, (35 years ago)🤯😮 I was an exchange student , this was practically unheard of for black girls back then. My friends thought I was crazy. I returned to the United States unstoppable 🏃♀, and continued to travel. I always tell young black people to travel or even get into an exchange program. Your video continues to inspire the young and the seasoned! You are doing it right Sundai! I appreciate you so much! Thank you!❤
Came in here through your collab with Corny and now I've spent the last 3 HOURS! 3 hours! 3 HOURS! watching all of your recent videos. Love the content, music, EVERAYTHANG. Absolute fave are the inspirational stuff you always have peppered in there. Keep doing you, boo! You're pretty damn awesome.
12:30 this just hit deep. This is a subtle, yet strong critique that echoes so many thoughts and emotions! AND I'M FROM EUROPE.
and siiiis 13:55 I feel you, being an Asian dude, growing up in Switzerland in a village and spending all my school life till adulthood as "the only visible foreigner", I felt that. Asian dudes are already one of the least desireable ethnicities/races in the West, I felt like the reference point for the whole Asian continent for everything.
Even if it doesn't concern me or I wasn't the target audience for this video, I found it super insightful and very motivating
After my time in the military, US Navy, I had moved to Osaka in 1991 to 1993. I later returned to Japan in 2003 and left in 2005.
Being a black man in Japan, i had few experiences most of it was out of curiosity not of racism, I made some wonderful friends and the streets of Osaka were extremely clean. You just have to step out of your comfort zone and experience living in Japan. I spoke a little japanese but was able to do daily tasks and socialize with people. Now , after many years away from Osaka, I plan to return to Japan to live and make a contribution to the culture and society.
use the like button you all
This was TOP TIER storytelling! Always love your videos!
Great video and content with a positive and fun vibe from everyone. I am sure this helped and encouraged a lot of people. The bakery owner and hairdresser were especially enjoyable to watch and hear from, just very good energy. All the best!
I really enjoyed Hilda & Cornelia.
And sorry to everyone that has had a negative experience in your home country ❤️
Sundai this was absolutely amazing. I love seeing us do big things outside of the US. I wish I knew Japan was an option when I was younger and not already established as I am now. Thank you for the hard work you put in for this vlog. I know this will help a lot of folks make that leap.
I can relate to Tiff. I'm not black but I was born in Western Samoa and then from the age of 3 to 7 I lived in a country in the middle east called Oman where we had friends from all over the world. Then we moved to back to New Zealand where my dad is from and I never felt like I fit in. I always missed our life in Oman and resented my parents for moving us. As an adult I had the opportunity to move back to the middle east, to the UAE. I lived in Abu Dhabi for 5 years and I really enjoyed the expat lifestyle - it was great closure for me too because I finally understood why my parents left. I still prefer being an expat to living in NZ though! The downside is making great friends and then having to make new friends because people are always returning to their home countries eventually.
This video is a blessing, I've been contemplating going to japan. I've always want to climb Mt. Fuji. I pray I run into one of you one day, I would love to have a conversation, and I will be frequenting Aunties Salon ( Naija girl here representing!!! ) and Uncles Bakery on my journey there next year. Open the Borders Japan 🙏
My daughter is obsessed with the Asian culture and talked all through high school about moving to Japan. I sent her this video thank you so much now I’m not as worried ❤
Sundai you did the dang thang. I’ve lived in Japan for 8 years and my beautiful black sistas. Explain the experience being black in Japan to the tee🫶🏾💕 It is a peaceful place and so beautiful 🥹
Superb, Sundai. This is an excellent gift to the community and encouragement to visit Japan. I sincerely appreciate your content and presence on RUclips, but I want to say a special thank you for this one! The energy, diversity of experiences, and perspectives is excellent. I am so proud of how you represent the Bay Area so well.
I have been waiting for you to drop a video! How are you Sundai Love? And all of Sundai family that is watching right now? Because we are family over here💕💕💕
Hey boo. The fam went live with me earlier 🥰
@@SundaiLove wow!
this vid will be saved for future references as a 18 year old nigerian girl born in spain wanting to live in japan after uni (つ≧▽≦)つ also the racism stuff was a bit concern for me but this alleviates it
thank you so much sundai, this is extremely helpful! esp for ppl who dont have who to talk about this❤️
They're running over there under guise of work- teaching English but really after their 🧬 Genes, want that 'Good Hair's Weave $100-$300-$500. They don't really want them over there, interviews subliminal asking "when are u getting ur sh...and leaving? There nice with it though
You answered something that has always been in the back of my mind. Absolutely love this!
Clicked like before watching gurl! Luv this vid.. Nice to hear other people's experience as well. I can relate to some of it for sure
Thanks boo
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who wanted to move for anime 😅. I have alway been in love with Japan… I want the culture, country sides, and life style. I was kinda on the fence because they always made it seem like we wasn’t welcome. I learned so much from this video.
Brown boy here watching this black excellence is just 📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌. Love thisssssss
I truly enjoy the various perspectives. Best of luck to all, and keep rising!
The fact that some of you have gone over a decade without a relationship with a Japanese person and the fact that no one sits next to you on a train says it all.
I only discovered your channel a few hours ago, and I've been hooked since. Your humour, video editing, topics, etc. lol I love it.
I just stumbled upon this video and I enjoyed every minute of this. As an expat (in Germany) I could relate to a lot. Thank you :-)
Thank you SO much for this. I’m not trying to live in Japan but I’ve dreamed of traveling there for many many years. It’s amazing to get the intel from a black female perspective. Your channel is a huge ball of light and laughter.🎉❤🤗
Wonderful video! This is also my most asked question as well, and no matter how many videos us Black creators make.....this question continues to persist. I still like this videos though because you can see the variety of Black people who are here in Japan
This is made so beautifully! It was so fun to watch, most of the time these types of videos can get boring but it kept my attention the whole time!
I loved this episode. I have been living in Misawa, Japan, for 3 years as a military member and will be here for another 3 years, with the intention to live here once my service is done. This video was touching and encouraging as I am an African American female who also wants to start a business in Japan. This video has inspired me even more to prepare for the next step. Also, thank you. After watching this video, I found a business that can do braids, which I intend to book soon, and I will be checking out the bakery when I come up to Tokyo next week. :)
LMAOO Marintia is right. My mom's in Ghana, and she's fighting everyone over the simplest thing. It's so strange to me just do your job properly it's not hard TT. Love this Sundai thank you
As a 2nd year nursing who wants to live and work in Japan one day, this was so helpful, encouraging and informative. Thank you🤗
Im goin into nursing too i wondering if that career does well there
This video was made so well!!! Thank you. This is amazing I’m so happy to see this. I’m half black half Japanese!!
This is so inspirational. I prefer seeing this content than older expats living in japan who are so jaded yet continue to live there. I love seeing people living "unconventional" lives too! I've been living in Korea for almost 2 years now and worry about how my future is gonna pan out, but all that matters is that I'm enjoying myself and slowly building more skills and being open to new opportunities along the way :) Although if it weren't for the border closures in 2020, I'd be right there with you all in Japan! Seeing everyone in the video talking about their life experiences and living in a foreign country for so many years, even decades, is very comforting
Just…. Thank you so much for this video. Thank you for the time you put in, and the amazing people you’ve shared with us! ❤
Omg the autoimmune girlsssssss 😭😭😭 me too! Hashimoto’s………………. and I’m black and I lowkey wanted to live in Japan 💀
Oh man! This is superb content! Your guests were so likeable and you evidently had such great chemistry with them. You asked all the relevant questions and edited it all to perfection. We should start paying for a subscription at this point.
So sweet 🥲
Thanks for this, so very interesting. I am planning on visiting Japan next May, if Japan opens up to regular tourism by then. My dad was there in the 80's in the military and he loved it there and it was mainly because he felt safe.
Your Living in Korea video was actually my introduction to seeing your channel! I’m currently finishing my bachelors to move there soon! Thank you for your informational videos Sundai!!
This was a REALLY good interview. Some of the things mentioned I even experienced at times as well when I lived in Okinawa and then would visit Tokyo. It was interesting the way foreigners in general are viewed and in different locations and even as a foreign woman as well. All in all my experience was good, and only peppered lightly with some random or strange moments that were maybe uncomfortable or just a cultural difference. I really enjoyed hearing this voice and perspective as a whole. Well done Sundai with this interview and cultivating the different age groups, different country backgrounds, different jobs and locations and even relationship status's. So impressed! =)
One of the best, "black in Japan" videos I've ever seen. Very unique, informative and entertaining. Thanks for this. 👍🏿
Very informative Video!🎐🎋 Thank you! I like all the different personalities, perceptions and opinions!❤🎐🎋
Commeting in a hope to boost this! This was really well made! 👏❤️
I looooove videos like this. 😍 The "Black Experience " is everywhere!!! ✨ These black individuals are so positive!!! 💞
I was excited for this video from the moment it started. Really enjoyed it, thank you so much Sundai. Also we appreciate how much you were engaging on the live with us, love that, love you. Thanks again 😌❤️
Sundai! THIS WAS FAN-FREAKIN-TASTIC! Thank you for taking the time out to make this video. Seriously, the editing and the way you set everything up was genius. Great work, seriously! This deserves recognition. Someone needs to pay you to have this video featured on some big news/cultural channel. Love you for this! 💗💐👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sundai you did such an incredible job with this video! It would've taken so much effort to pull it all together from the interviews to the editing and all that comes in between. Love that you did this. It was really interesting hearing everyone's personal experiences and advice. It still blows my mind about how terrible the racism is in America tho 😥 Thank you to all your guests for sharing their stories too ❤️❤️❤️ We're certain this video is going to help many people and it's thanks to you and everyone that made this video happen 💕💕🙂🙏
This was such a dope video! It deserves at least a million likes👍🏾
Thanks so much for this video Sundai!❤ For the last couple of years I've wanted to stay and live in Japan for a year, but I didn't know where to start or what to expect. Your channel has definitely helped with that (along with general entertainment ofc). But this video especially? Loved it! Not to mention I found some more awesome black people to follow!
So happy to hear 🥰
Sundai!!!!!!!!! I’m 6:43 in and am already in love with this video. I don’t usually comment or like videos. However, today Ms. Ma’am…this video is receiving all of the above. Well done!!!
😂Thanks boo 🥰
I really enjoyed this video, I love everyone's personality especially the teacher (UK) and the hairdresser, the older gentleman is such a wholesome dad.
I never missed a dryer so much in my life like I do now! The struggle is real! This video was so enlighten and so goood! I know who to go too to get my hair done! ☺️☺️
I loved this video!!!!!! So down to earth interview style and a genuine positive attitude towards the subject « Black in Japan « such diversity in your choice of interviewees. Good job on a way to often asked question. Bravo 🎊
Loving this vid and I subscribed to the other ladies thank you for making this suggafoot I love love love documentaries ❤️
This was great! My 11 year old has already expressed her love for Japanese culture and plans to move to Japan. Thanks for sharing. i feel a bit better about my future daughter's experience
You’ve outdone yourself with this video. Are you starting a media company? Or pitching a documentary series to Netflix or something? Because you should. The quality of this video is too good for just RUclips.
Thank you so much, I plan on moving back to Japan in 2 year. I retire at from the military 2024. I'm getting ready to restart my life in Japan.
First and foremost one Oscar 🏆 for the editing and directing! And a nomination screenwriting … Beautifully done bravo
Omg TIFFANY ! Wow so glad to see her thriving in Japan 😍. Love this for y’all
This video was great! So insightful not only for living in japan but anywhere you want!
I love your content, it always motivate me to do what I want to do🙌
I loooovveeee your hairdresser. What a nice funny lady.
This video was so beautiful and inspirational I Thank you for making this video any back steps I had for moving to Japan washed away this video has lit a fire in me to work hard to be able to make my dream come true and live in Japan one day
Glad RUclips suggested this channel. I’m lived in Japan years ago while I was in the Navy, I’m coming back to visit in April to make some content and can’t wait
