the scary/sad part of family businesses (especially ones that are engrained in tradition and heritage) is that it only takes one person for it to all end.
Scary and sad possibly, but there’s also a badass raw energy in knowing that you hold you family’s cuter in your hands. You could look you parents in the eye and say “This bloodline dies with me”
@@meglizmen3109 except Itachi didn’t want the bloodline to end. Man was sobbing before he killed his parents. The energy I have is pre-Chunin Exam Gaara. He absolutely would have ended his whole bloodline. After all, there were only 4 members of his family left including him

Mad props to this family and any family owned businesses, it's not easy to run a business and even more challenging to keep it going for 10 years, let alone past one generation! Amazing, thank you for serving the community!
Honestly my favorite place in Little Tokyo. I've been here countless times and the blueberry mochi is so underrated! It's the best mochi for those who don't have a sweet tooth
I just got some yesterday! I spent $45 on mochi and it’s literally the best mochi I’ve ever had. I feel so lucky to live near by to get mochi whenever I please. If you guys ever have the chance to come here, come! The owners are the absolute sweetest!
It really is! You'd think you've had mochi but the ones at the grocery stores and restaurants are literally nothing compared to the ones at Fugetsu-Do. Their mochi is so pillowy soft and tastes like heaven. Literally can't find anything else like it in California.
The owner is such a dad, when the guy showed interest in wanting to learn he had him jump right into it. Even being excited for him doing a good job, cute!!!! 🥰

If you live anywhere near Los Angeles, you really owe it to yourself to go out there and try it. Everything they make is fantastic, but their chocolate ganache mochi is seriously one of the greatest things I've ever eaten. I actually was in the middle of eating one of those when I came across this video. And obviously not that I'd tell anyone how to live their life, but I do hope Korey decides to take over the family business when/if Brian decides to retire.
Family business can be both a blessing and a curse. You will always have the stability and don’t ever have to think how to make ends meet. At the same time, if you have a gift that goes outside the realms of the family business (specially being from a japanese family) and one wishes to pursue that aspiration then a lot of drama will ensue.
Well you don't necessarily have stability - you have to change with the times or die like the businesses around your's did. Change too much and too fast and people complain, you always have to thread that needle. However in Japan businesses have been handed down outside the family, like in the bladesmithing business. Technically the new person is 'adapted' and becomes the next generation owner. But yeah, no freedom to be you.
g e o idk about stability part but yeah I agree, all it takes for the business to end is someone along the family line that doesn’t want to take over the business, which it is his choice
I think the OP means there's always something to fall back to. Mochi isn't going away any time soon so you won't starve and be out of job if you have this business. You won't necessarily have a successful one that's stable without a lot of effort -and even then that's not granted-, that's for sure.
Weave Not snatched i hadn’t either until a few years ago, but they have cheap mochi at aldi & mochi at japanese restaurants-obviously nowhere near as good as this place tho
Paige Oschwald hm I’ve seen a Japanese store have the ice cream mochi but it’s way too far from we’re I live I never tried them tbh and they look so good
A business that grows and adjusts to the current market, yes. That’s probably one of the reasons why they were able to stay in business so long. Love this story
wow, "this is my family legacy , i want to keep it going" what a lucky father, very rare for a guy -much less a 19y old- to have this mind set. and to dedicate the rest of his life for it. hope for 200y.
I love how the son.sees it as an actual business to keep the store running. Others would easily lose interest and just go to college and study whatever else.
Can you blame those people for not being interested in what their parents want them to do? Not everyone actually wants to do something they know they will not do with joy for the rest of their lives. And you can't blame them.
Well, you wouldn't want to do things that you are not interested in for the rest of their life, would you? We can't really blame those people who abandoned their family business and go do whatever their hearts desire.
Came across this old video, so it would be 119 years in 2023. And...I have a box of mochi right here in front of me...well...what's left of them. I got a box of 20 mochi's and I have 2 left, couldn't wait for New Year. Probably the most well-known mochi confectionery in LA.
Oh lord, I go to little Tokyo alot, but I usually buy mochi from a different spot. Seeing this now I MUST visit this and check it out. It looks so good!
I love going here! I remember when my Japanese Summer school went to go and make some with Mr. Brian. He’s so nice just like in here. And the mochi is delicious! It’s perfect. The softness, sweetness, tastiness, and the chewiness! If you ever in LA go and have a taste!!
I am a 68 year old Japanese American. When I was young all sides of our family would get together and make Kochi in my grandfather's barn for New Years. Those days died out with my grandparents. Really sad. We've been able to get mochi in San Francisco and San Jose but, sadly, those shops are now closed or closing.
Oh my gosh guys you all need to go. I just went this morning after watching this vid. and it tastes WAYYYYY better than a manufactured store bought one!! I was so surprised.
This shop really works hard. At our church we make New Year mochi every December 28. Three days before New Years Eve. We only make about 700 lbs. but it takes us from 3:00 am till 11:00 am to finish all the rice. This shop goes every day! The mochi taste different from the factory made ones simply because it is made by hand. Like mom's cooking versus one that comes from a can.
Insecure and nervous are two different things but can exist at the same time. He’s probably new so he’s nervous abt hosting but also probably insecure of how he talks about things
I’m proud of mochi business thriving abroad. So glad that it will be passed on to his son and still continue. Protecting and passing on tradition is very important. I’m disappointed that not only is many confectionary incorporating automation and less hand involved but mochi are made out of geletifier and fillers and some even uses artificial sweetener because it keeps mochi from getting hard. But mochi need to be hard and the toasted mochi is also divine. Keep up the great work! But, could you please make non “artificial”colorant mochi?
if u guys dont have a special shop like this... just visit an asia-supermarket! u can find ready-packed mochis for a few coins. I bought my last ones yesterday... 1 with coconut flavour 1 with read beans but there are so many flavours that u really need to try it out!😲😍😍😍😍
I order at least once per month, Rainbow dango and I’ll order 6 or 7 packs along with some rice cakes. It costs about $60 for shipping but it’s completely worth it! I live in Fresno County and it costs more to ship than what I purchase. That’s how much I love it!
I hope they get to pass it down more and more generations, even if it's not from their own family, I for one would love to help the shop grow, it's just so impressive and my heart will shatter if it ever ends.
Wtf I was just there for my birthday lol. We visit little tokyo every once in a while because we are Japanese american and it's where we get all our authentic japanese stuff

But mochi need to be hard and the toasted mochi is also divine. Keep up the great work! But, could you please make non “artificial”colorant mochi?
I need some fresh mochi now😋
I never tried mochi before ;(

Funny how at this time, right above your comment is a Jimin joke, and right below it is about how mature the 19-yr-old sounds
80% of comments section : brainwashed fans of racist Jimin

Ever since I visited this store in ‘79 I’ve wanted to learn how to make mochi. Theirs is so delicious. I had no idea how unique this shop is!
I love how he just shake his head when the mochi guy explain about mochi
this is so amazing and so cool :D I wish there were more people who would keep such precious shops going :D they are still the best :)
I legitimately think this mochi is better than the ones in Japan.
These tasted amazing! The Owner was incredibly humble. Thank you for giving small businesses owners a platform. 🖤
I order at least once per month, Rainbow dango and I’ll order 6 or 7 packs along with some rice cakes. It costs about $60 for shipping but it’s completely worth it! I live in Fresno County and it costs more to ship than what I purchase. That’s how much I love it!
I came here to see how Jimin was made
I knew I would find a comment like this 😂
yum num lol
This made my day haha
Took a decade to find this coment
Yes yes. The most beautiful mochi that was ever made 😭💜💜💜💜💜💜♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🔥🔥🔥
When you thought it was actually in Tokyo and didn’t expect their good English
I hope they get to pass it down more and more generations, even if it's not from their own family, I for one would love to help the shop grow, it's just so impressive and my heart will shatter if it ever ends.
Wtf I was just there for my birthday lol. We visit little tokyo every once in a while because we are Japanese american and it's where we get all our authentic japanese stuff
Jcor they literally put Japanese American...
@Jcob999 oooh you got ignored.
