I actually came up with many many other differences, but later realized it would be more than 35 minutes if I included all of them. Would you be comfortable with that though? Or maybe I should just narrow down to 10? Let me know what you think. Thank you for watching!
agree with you. I lived in Korea and found them much more friendly and open to new ideas. But first you must show respect for them and interest in learning about them, their history, and their culture.
Koreans seem to have more of a sense of humor and joke around alot more then I see with Japanese who seem to be more serious or polite. Koreans also seem more -- extravagant - more dramatic in their tv shows/movies and music.
The sex crimes are just less reported in Japan as the ugly truth is that both Japan and S. Korea have a very abusive legal system towards victims of sexual crimes.... it's really sad... those figures don't mean much....
I find the Japanese to be "cuter" than Koreans. The "kawaii" culture is really so strong in Japan than in Korea. In Korea, it's more about being beautiful or perfect than cute. That's my opinion :D
I am an American and have spent a considerable amount of time in both countries. I find Japanese people more modest, reserved, and polite. That said, Korean people can be more direct, sociable, and can be more fun. When I was in Korea, I would very often meet random people and become fast friends with them. Even in Japan, I ended up being friends with a few Korean-Japanese people, because these people were just more open to allowing me into their space.
Hugh Hughes Japanese are polite because they were taught to be polite to people. That is considered as fake because they always keep them to themselves about personal problems.
@@lookingfortruth1930 Yes, I know. They keep their problems and criticisms to themselves. I look at it as both good and bad, good for social cohesion but bad at the personal level.
@@vwgenera2918 the hell with you? Do hate Japan that much? You even came to each comment just saying the same and fucking things to make a country looks bad. Wow what a hero
I lived 13 month in Seoul and I am married with a korean. I used to go to Osaka a few times. The difference I noticed is: 1. Both are very polite, but japan is the master of being polite and helpful! 2. Japan is definitely more expensive. 3. Koreans are very stylish(like italian), japanese wear more comfortable clothes. 4. Japan has perfect little food things which taste better than in Korea. Even at the airport in Japan nobody could speak a good english. Much better in Korea. 5. Korean are very interested in foreigners and very good company spending time with, more than in japan. 6. Korean products are more stylish, japanese products are more cute. 7. I like/love both countries, but for me korea has more advantages than japan. I liked your video very much. Greetings from germany.
I’m sorry but I didn’t agree with poin 5 For me both korean and japanese not too interested in foreigners Yeah korean more interested in foreigner if they are white there are social experiment to prove that And yeah japanese haven’t interested in foreigner but they didn’t rasis they serve well every foreigner even muslim I know cz i ever live there Sorry for my bad english
I just feel sorry for Japanese people and weeaboos being brainwashed by Japanese stupid media and government. Not knowing exactly what had happened back in the day, they are also missing out important issues of history and opportunities to have proper education. I hope they have more access to learn about world history that are not filtered by Japanese media and government. In Korea,only uneducated people watch Japanese anime. Smart people don't watch anime because anime include a lot of lies. It is said that some anime makes bad rumors about Korea. Japan disses Korea through anime. 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 Rising Sun Flag does mean Hakenkreuz for Asians. Japanese people pretend to be nice,but their faces are not real one. We should be aware of these kind of people. Their nature have racism or white superiority in their mind.
😂😂I’m English and this is so true it’s actually annoying how unprofessional people are here all the boys have really horrible slang and the girls are horrible there’s no class no one even cares or tries it’s pretty miserable ngl
It's because unlike America the British accent isn't everywhere it's not like Britain is producing movies that everyone watches and hears the movie stars speaking the accent constantly, it's just a matter of exposure I mean most people only think British people speak in Cockney or Received pronunciation
@@d.n5287 I learned mostly from British shows and films, and couldn't understad some British when I turned up on the island. It took me a few months to learn understanding, and now I can, although at times I'm still confused, (perhaps the lockdown has not helped). The worst obstacle though, is old Chinese people at university. The only thing I can understand is: 'You must sink a boat.' This is what my Chinese professor says when she means 'You must think about'. And in writing she makes mistakes that would make her fail Polish A-levels in English. For that and other reasons, like 8 contact hours instead of 20, I think in terms of teaching, British universities are dirt in comparision to what unis 400 places behind offer, and not worthy of anyone's time or money. It think it's disgraceful that British unis hire lecturers who can't be bothered to learn moderately good English, and I'm not the only one complaining, or about one university, because I've studied in Nottingham, and I've heard similar complaints from Kent.
To any Englishman here, no offense but personally yes, I agree with you. It's hard to understand when I talk to any English people especially with heavy slang like Scottish, Aussie, NY, or Texas. for country who have British influence back then like India or Singapore it was fine because they're aren't English native, it is acceptable. Kinda weird I still need English subtitle while watching UK or US based TV series or Movie which obviously in English 😂 . I just find is hard to understand what these thicc accent English saying, but doesn't mean I hate your way of speaking, or language. For me, culture different is there for human to explore. my next bucket list during Covid-19 lockdown: *learn how to speak like Scottish*
@@anthonyfox585 true. First of all they judge from who a person was if he or she is disabled she'll get insulted. I studied in south korea before and it's the worst I'm a girl so some boys just creep me out and pull my skirt and panties down...
I remember partying in Kyoto, in April. Three of us sat down, me being irish, one other being japanese and the other being Korean. The japanese guy only really spoke a little english so he talked japanese sometimes. Basically me and the Korean guy were cooperating in translating what he was saying. It was quite funny, I know a lot of japanese phrases so I picked up on those and the Korean picked up on the similarities in language and more of the tone. This is why I always recommend traveling solo. You meet way more people and have much more fun.
I’m also leaving my comments every where on this video too because this video is so biased with false info. People simply tend to fall for his intention to put down Korea. Some of them actually believe his crafty comparison which is not a comparison. Very easily manipulated by an ugly guy with a bad intention.
It’s been a VERY long time since I travelled to Japan and Korea, but I also noticed in Korea that more people spoke English. We also went to church on Sunday! I’m from Alaska-so our cost of living is more than most of the other US States, so to me, Japan prices were very similar to here, and Korea was much cheaper. Both countries were so great to visit!
Hi, Whould you please tell me if Alaska's cost of living is more expensive than in California? I've never been to Alaska. If I leave California I have thoughts of moving to Alaska or Texas or Mid West States.
Tyrone Kim I have never been to California and I’ve actually wondered the same thing myself. I would only imagine that California MIGHT be cheaper only because it’s still part of the continental states, so it’s cheaper to get things transported there. We don’t have as many taxes though. I’m thinking Texas might be a better bet than Alaska unless you have a good job lined up. I’ve seen where a lot of people move here and end up having a hard time finding a job if they don’t have something already.
In my opinion, the Koreans knew how to separate the languages in it's own despite alk their twangs and spoken dialect (just like Filipinos) but Japanese seem to mash English into their own language, even make thwir own versions of pronouncing certain english words (like Enlish becomes "Engurish") which is kinda fascinating to say the least.
Japan: Anime and manga South Korea: K-pop and webtoon Edit: Wow these comments got wild. My intention was to simply acknowledge both countries, not compare which one is better or worse

I mean, he did continually say that this was his perspective as a Japanese man, which I took to mean that I should take what he was saying with a small grain of salt. In the comments I was honestly hoping to find more "Actually, Nobita, Korea is..." and less "Dude hates Korea! bRaaarrrgle!" /sadface from the U.S.
While I appreciate the effort gone into this video I do think it was biased. As Nobita mentioned there were so many topics that could have been touched on but the ones that were chosen were cherrypicked to put Japan in the best light. To sum up the video, Korean women have more plastic surgery, Japan has less crime, Korea has higher unemployment rate etc and then referencing newspaper articles that put Japan in a better light like the Japan Times article 'Japan's economy is far from hopeless' and then juxtaposing it with 'South Korea's jobless rate hits highest level since the global financial crisis', without mentioning the fact that Japan is the most indebted nation on earth or that South Korea has been voted the most innovative economy 7 times in a row. Even if some of the points you mention may be true, (however, some people who fact checked your numbers re: your rape figures cannot find where you got those numbers from) I think that if I were to make a video comparing Japan and Korea, I would have tried to make it a more balanced video and not just cherrypicked the points where my country was doing better to make it seem like one country was superior to another. Surely that's not the point of a video titled '10 differences between Japan and South Korea'. This video should have been titled 'why Japan is a better country than South Korea'.
I really tired with them I hope one day they are recognized that there countries is beautiful and they are complete each other Korea and japan 🇯🇵 🇰🇷 the best
@@kingpalafox1045 As much as I like Japanese culture I have not interest in going there. Actually I have no plans on ever leaving the United States at all. Mainly because most all other countries people let them basically butt rape them. Sure America allowed a jack ass to enter the white house, but he has not really accomplished anything. Why, because Americans don't put up with politicians bs.
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.
@@ccrraazzyyggiirrll Korea has high suicide rates because the elderly suicide rate is extremely high. Basically a side effect of Korea developing too quickly. Every age group and demographic in Korea besides the elderly have a suicide rate around the OECD average and are lower than most East Asian countries including Japan. Young Koreans (14-19) for example have a lower suicide rate than countries like the USA and Norway.
When I was in Australia the farm I was working in had many Japanese and Korean people, and from my personal experience Japanese people can be friendly and polite but Koreans are more fun to hang out with. I also managed to date a Korean girl, Japanese girls are less likely to date foreigners if that's what you're interested in.
@@josephmessina4832 it might seem like I'm generalizing but I'm not... Every nation has it's own culture and it reflects on that person when he grows up. Let me put it this way, when I managed to go out with the Korean girl, the other Korean guys didn't really care that I was dating her, they were more interested in dating other non Korean girls and we all hanged out togheter. I noticed though that when my friend was flirting with the Japanese girl and making her laugh, the Japanese guys from her circle were giving them dirty looks and looking annoyed with both of them. The girl later told us that the guy talked to her about how upset he was that she didn't hang out more with them. But hey of course I know that not all Japanese people are like that but I think that culturally they get pressured a lot to stay with their own kind.
Korean girl are obsese with western guy. while japanese girl are normal but they look like more oke to dating with south east asian peoples rather than korean girls.
3:22 The answer of No5. has big problem. First, In Japan, sexual crime is an offense subject to complaint. It means, if sexual victim did not report to the police, it doesn't be a crime, meanwhile, In Korea, sexual crime is an offense indictable without complaint. It means, Even though victim did not report to the police, it can be a crime. Second, In Japan, only penetrative sex is recognized as sexual crimes, on the other hands, In Korea, all kind of sexual harassments is recognized as sexual crime. (and In Sweden all kind of sexual harassments including verbal abuse is recognized as sex crime.) Third, There are huge differences of rejection rate between Japan and Korea. According to both the police department report of both country in 2014, Japanese police had rated 6 times more than Korea's in the rate of rejection of sexual report. It means, 5 of 6 sexual victims can not expect protection from governmental authority in Japan specially in child offenses. If you are set same rejection rate, the victims numbers per 1,000 people will be shown the result as below. 6.6 in Japan and 1.7 in Korea. As the result, In Japan, sexual cases are very hard to be confirmed from police. This differences makes us misunderstanding that there are huge gap in sexual crimes between Japan and Korea. Remind, Stats doesn't show truth.
No more(Korea since 2013,Japan since 2018?). Also, Korea is British common law system now which does not require evidence for guilty convictions(not just sex crimes) ,allows wide and political interpretation and prosecution are no more allowed to investigate cases. The real reason for this is because Korea is highly export dependent and thus had to open its legal market to large law firms which need British common law system to operate. Originally Korean law system started as a hybrid of British common and Japanese derived laws but massive reforms toward transformation to British common law were taken since the mid' 2000s to open the market-the feminists connected to ultraconservative churches were at the forefront. The current Korean law practices are in many cases against Korea's own criminal proceedings law and judges say it is hard for them to issue verdicts.This adds with Korea's mass surveillance system which is a digital implementation of East German Stasi's system that had moving cameras even in corners of rural areas connected to the Stasi centre; As a whole, Korea has become something like a British Commonwealth country(state church is Victorian,legal system is British common and even the military justice system was changed to that of US/UK/CAN/AU/NZ,new license plates look like British ones). Outside their appearance, nowadays Koreans cannot be distinguished from people who live in Southern states.
Let's add... In Japan, in the case of sexual assault, if you report it, the victim himself is summoned to the accident site investigation and has to re-enact what happened during the on-site re-verification, even posing. So it's almost never reported. Not only that, but it's surprising that there is a social atmosphere in which people are bullied just to report sexual harassment. This is not because Japan is ignorant. By taking advantage of the fact that such a verification method lowers the prosecution and prosecution rate, they are cunningly using the global image marketing strategy of a safe and crime-free Japan. This is because the global crime rate statistics base focuses on the prosecution rate and the prosecution rate after all. For reference, in the case of economic offenders in Japan and the United States, after reporting the case, the arbitration agency handles it first, and then proceeds with very careful steps (the victim must reveal the perpetrator's criminal evidence and circumstances in detail) and deliberation. As it is decided whether or not to take it as an enemy fraud case, it is usually resolved without any fuss (in many cases, it is abandoned). On the other hand, in Korea, there are many cases of fraudulent accusations even in small disputes, and there are almost no prosecutions. Our Republic of Korea is not called the only democratic country in Asia for nothing. Japan's low crime rate is a terrible mask made that way. So, according to world statistics, Japan has a very low crime rate and Korea is a lot higher than Japan. It was the same with the corona statistics.
Japan's sex crime rate is a joke. ruclips.net/video/ujuQKPerZbw/видео.html ruclips.net/video/AVY-CYMbf6U/видео.html Even Chikan is unheard of in most other countries, and would be classified as sexual assault as well.
Public transportation. Korea is cheaper and much easier to navigate. Koreans are taller than the Japanese. Koreans love cute-sexy while the Japanese love cute. Koreans have kpop and kdrama. Japanese have manga. Both are great countries.
this is why i love korean's also but make sure to teach other korean's to be nice like you, Because sometimes not all korean's are nice that's why the image of other korean's is being ruined and i don't want that
Given that you said you had a lot more topics you wish you had time to really explain and talk about, I wouldn't mind a 30+ minute video of you just talking about the 40 or so differences between the countries. But that's just my opinion. Loved the video.
@Remya TG People who forget their history are doomed to repeat it. Your comment proves that all history education in Japan is completely wrong. Don't hesitate to admit your sins. We only need your sincere apologies. If you sincerely apologize properly, we will forgive you.
vwgenera Wtf you sound pretty much brainwashing lol. It's all in the PAST. The current Japanese citizens don't know much about their history since the government seems to hide the history from them (maybe they're ashamed of how they were). The current Japanese is NOT the PAST them. Idk but your way of talking seems off and weird probably because you're trying to brainwash people with your weird beliefs. Be more open minded dude
@Ice Inducer Oh Why are you pretending to be Korean in the comments when you're not Korean? Do you feel inferior in Korea? I feel sorry for you to see that you're working so hard on the translator.
Seoul vs Tokyo 1) Transportation: I use my T-money in Seoul and my Suica in Tokyo. It is a lot easier to navigate the subway/metro system in Seoul than in Tokyo. In Seoul it is the same company running the system. 2) Finding places: Chicago pretty much works on a grid system, so it is easy to find the location of a place. Without some type of gps, I find it difficult to find some places in Tokyo. I have had no problems in Seoul. 3) Eating: Seoul pretty much has the group/share food mentality. As that is the case, if I am traveling alone, there are many things I can not eat. There isn't Korean bbq for one. In Tokyo, it is not uncommon to eat alone. 4)Fashion: The Japanese have more "swag". In Seoul, when there is a fashion trend, probably everyone from 15-35 follows it- the same clothes, the same hair. In Tokyo, except for the salary men, there is a lot more variation. 5)People: Overall the Japanese are definitely more shy. However, the elderly seems to not have a problem approaching me in either of the two countries.
1) Tokyo has rail everywhere & hokkaido shut down half their train lines due to privatization 2) mostly public lines but Seoul has its own subway system.
He actually listed several areas where Korea surpassed Japan. Overall I like Nobita. If he is a little more favorable towards his home country of Japan, so what? There is nothing wrong with having some national pride. Almost everything he listed was backed up with data. Some of it is subjective like looks, but not the vast majority.
@@myrhev I agree. And some of them are actually neutral even though one might think they're pro-Japan -- for example, saying the Japanese get less plastic surgery is only pro-Japan if you have a bias against plasticsurgery.
im japanese, i love korea so what? Its just really sad seeing people arguing over two countries abt who's better. Please I beg u stop. Both countries has its own good. I get that they have similarities like: cosmetics, fashion etc. I know that I dont have the right to judge any thing abt korea because I've never been there and im pretty sure its amazing there.

Don't run away from your faults and your history also.
There's a big flaw in the statistics about plastic surgery in Korea, because it is based on the sole number of surgeries performed, which includes that of foreigners. There were about 140,000 foreigners who came to Korea just to do plastic surgery in 2018 alone (roughly 30% of all surgeries). Aggressive foreign marketing (there's K-surgery tours in China, Japan, SE Asia) and having the best plastic surgeons in the world who are best at creating the ideal East Asian face is just some of the big factors for Korea's plastic surgery fame. It's frustrating to see people assume a Korean girl did surgery just because she's pretty, ALL the time. Like people forget there's just pretty people everywhere? That being said, Korea is still definitely one of the most "image" conscious countries in the world.
the bigger flaw in the stats is that the majority of procedures are double eyelid surgery. that is less skin than male circumcision which is not considered cosmetic surgery even though it is. and its probably just as common as Japanese women having their teeth bent inward but that too is probably not considered cosmetic surgery even though it is purely cosmetic.
@지예서 Yea. Koreans often have square face with rigid jaws, short nose, high cheek bones, and small eyes (One of the smallest in Asia) while Japanese often have slender jaws, tall nose, short cheek bones, and big eyes (One of the biggest in Asia. They have so many differences.
지예서 I said typical buddy. If ur gonna say that. Kpop stars are really off the typical facial structures. They’re closer to Japanese structures. I wonder why....🤭

Japanese are so much more tan than I expected. Koreans are also tan but the girls are mostly super pale. I just expected all East Asians to be pale as paper so I was surprised. Also Koreans are super tall. That was also surprising
Japanese have more flawless skin than South Koreans, Koreans have a oily skin than Japanese,I can't say to Koreans that they're face is more plastic than Japanese ,cause Japanese have more rate of plastic surgery than South Korea
The Japanese people are of southern descent, so many people have darker skin and double eyelids than other Northeast Asians. On the other hand, Koreans are of northern descent, so there are many people with pale skin and monolid. Most people of northern descent in Japan are of Korean (Baekje) descent from a long times ago. In fact, Japanese and Koreans have the most similar genes.

Maybe I'm wrong but I've seen really pale koreans
It comes down to fashion. Koreans have a different sense of style. If a Japanese person was to do the type of fashion popular in SK, you wouldn’t be able to tell they’re Japanese. It’s the same vice-versa.
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.
The high rate of sexual crimes in S. Korea is due to differences in the way statistics are collected. In S. Korea, relatively minor crimes other than rape, such as sexual harassment, are grouped into the same category as rape and classified as serious crimes. In Japan, only serious crimes such as rape are classified as serious crimes. Even taking this into account, Japan may have a lower crime rate, but the difference is not that much.
The reason why high rate of Korea’s plastic surgery is peole who come from Japan, USA and especially China. There are many ‘surgery tour’ in China. Not Koreans affect to high rate of Korea’s plastic surgery
@@user-lo9qk8rh6m No, it doesn't (include foreigners). Japanese and Chinese actually get more rhinoplasties than Koreans, but Korea has the highest overall rate of people who get any sort of cosmetic surgery at 13.6% of the Korean population, which is the highest rate in the world, and more than double the rate of China and Japan.

I always considered Korea for those who're more extroverted and Japan for those who're more introverted, but that's just a broad generalization for me. Or, more so, Korea for youngsters and Japan for older people.
Because Japanese doesn't have a "C" sound, as in "cinnamon" or "symptom" (same sound). Instead they always say "shi". As, for example Garcia, they say Garushia.

Poor mind people,like Japanese,are jealous of Koreans. Bad rumors about Koreans spread by Japanese make false impression about Koreans. Japanese pritend to be nice,but it's fake. We must not believe these kind of liars. Japan still uses the Rising Sun Flag. The Rising Sun Flag does mean Hakenkreuz for Asians. We should be aware of these kind of people. They are Fake people.
I'm Japanese. Our government has already apologized in the past. Although, Koreans continuously criticizes Japan and asks for apology. That is just a emotional criticism. Koreans hate Japan. Thats why they keep criticizing Japan.
@@enopis7394 we want a sincere apology. Japan government denies that they used many korean woman as sex slaves. Please do not rhink im biased, i also think korea should sincerely apologize to vietnam too.
@@enopis7394 Japanese people always say, they've apologized in past. Are you talking about "Treaty on Basic Relations between Japan and the Republic of Korea" ? There is no apology in that treaty. Japanese government had never officially apologized before , except 2015 about comfort woman. There is still Yatsukuni Shrine in Japan, they honor WW2 war criminals there. Japanese officials visit there often and bow. Even Japanese prime minister Abe sent flower to that Shrine every year. Korean want Japanese politicians to apologize about that.
How can you blame him ? He's Japanese after all, of course he's gonna praise Japan. Japanese people are proud of their country unlike many of us in Western countries... 😅 But here's my opinion from a Western point of view. South Korea is more opened to Western culture and it shows through people's clothing, behavior and ability to speak English. Korean culture (K-Pop and makeup) is more mainstream whereas Japanese culture is more "niche" and specific (mostly mangas and anime) I'd say. It can also explains why they tend to do more surgery in order to look more European. I've collected quite a lot informations about Japanese and Korean fashion/beauty trends and I noticed that girls in Korea are, like some people said, overall more into sexy and modern/western fashion trends than Japanese are. Japanese are either very classic, girly or vintage. Or extreme (Harajuku). Koreans are more into girly/chic or sportswear/minimalist type of vibes. Also, they want to look young but like actual young women whereas in Japan it doesn't bother grown women to look like 14 yo girls (I'm barely exaggerating). In fact they're even accentuating it; contact lenses that makes irises look bigger, short hair with bangs, teeth ("yaeba") amongst other things. Overall, the whole "kawaii" trend is very childish if you think about it. Every culture has somehow an admiration for youth but in Japan they are taking school boys/girls to another level. Take any anime, 90% of the main characters are no older than 17. I don't see that in Korean dramas, not as much at least. As for lifestyle, I've heard a lot of praise and good things coming from both sides. Both countries seems to be very pleasant to live in (safe, clean, respectful people, great food...) in theory. However, there's a big difference between spending a few days or a few months and living in a country. If I had to chose, from what I've heard... I wouldn't chose Japan. Here's why : 1) the fact it's pretty hard to find a job as a foreigner, even if you're qualified and even if you have connections. In fact, it's quite hard to fit in as a stranger as soon as it comes to work. Needless to say it's not even worth trying if you don't speak Japanese 2) people, even though they're lovely, have a very specific way of acting in society ("tatemae") which can be seen as fake/hypocritical. As a very spontaneous/clumsy person everyday I'd be afraid to offend people, no joke 3) women's position in Japanese society. Even my boyfriend, who lived in Japan for three years and loves the country so much that it sounds like propaganda sometimes, has to admit that women's place is still quite reductive and Japanese men are not the most gallants, that's why a lot of Japanese women prefer dating foreigners (according to him). Even though Japanese women are known for being very modest he told me it was easy for him to smash lol... Probably because he was playing the French cliche's card. Anyways. Also, the very problematic subject of the Lolicon. SK also has aspects I'm not in fond of (such as those unrealistic beauty standards that are very problematic) but their way of life seems more adapted for Westerners than Japan. Japan is quite different from the rest of the world... I'm far from saying it's bad place, I'd really like to go there one day to visit but I just don't know if I could fit in the society as a very French (adopted) girl with Vietnamese roots 😂 Like, I heard Japanese people are genuinely curious around foreigners and in a very nice way but by that I mean Caucasians and POC. I'm neither, I'm just a boring Asian girl who doesn't speak a single word of Japanese nor any other Asian language 😂😂😂 They'd try to talk to me but that would be my white af bf who would reply lol, already happened, I felt useless as some dead leaves on the pavement 🍃😂
@SUCKMEOFF ROPER to begin with, you only repeated what I already said but in a negative/twisted way in your fist paragraph. Then if you'd have read properly you'd know I'm not white and even less a "white invader", I actually feel good in my country and have no plan to immigrate, thanks. Also, nice for all of the Japanese women who are married to foreigners... 😂 In an era where the majority stands by the "open world" concept which is undeniably a progress (except for xenophobic people), sorry but you sound old and bitter.
You're more open to the Poz, that's great for you guys. Enjoy your drastic population shrink in the next 50 years, followed by calls for mass-third world immigration by your government and media. Lemme know how it works out for ya, if I'm able to live to the late 21st century.

@@coralie288 What job do you do in Japan. I would like to reach fluency in Japanese, my conversational skills need work but reading and writing skills are proficient although I've never seriously studied. But now I would like to gauge how much Kanji or vocabulary I must learn to be able to get around Japan without any difficulty or how long it took you to gain proficiency. I don't really have trouble learning Kanji but more so learning which vocabulary is frequently used and whether to learn casual speech or formal. I would appreciate it if you could help me understand what your experience has been.

Even in Japan, I ended up being friends with a few Korean-Japanese people, because these people were just more open to allowing me into their space.

I love it how this guy has wrong pronounciacion of many English words, yet he's about 600% more understandable than British people.
😂😂I’m English and this is so true it’s actually annoying how unprofessional people are here all the boys have really horrible slang and the girls are horrible there’s no class no one even cares or tries it’s pretty miserable ngl
Or Indian English, I literally don't understand anything of that accent.
It's because unlike America the British accent isn't everywhere it's not like Britain is producing movies that everyone watches and hears the movie stars speaking the accent constantly, it's just a matter of exposure I mean most people only think British people speak in Cockney or Received pronunciation
@@d.n5287 I learned mostly from British shows and films, and couldn't understad some British when I turned up on the island. It took me a few months to learn understanding, and now I can, although at times I'm still confused, (perhaps the lockdown has not helped).
The worst obstacle though, is old Chinese people at university. The only thing I can understand is: 'You must sink a boat.' This is what my Chinese professor says when she means 'You must think about'. And in writing she makes mistakes that would make her fail Polish A-levels in English.
For that and other reasons, like 8 contact hours instead of 20, I think in terms of teaching, British universities are dirt in comparision to what unis 400 places behind offer, and not worthy of anyone's time or money. It think it's disgraceful that British unis hire lecturers who can't be bothered to learn moderately good English, and I'm not the only one complaining, or about one university, because I've studied in Nottingham, and I've heard similar complaints from Kent.
To any Englishman here, no offense but personally yes, I agree with you. It's hard to understand when I talk to any English people especially with heavy slang like Scottish, Aussie, NY, or Texas. for country who have British influence back then like India or Singapore it was fine because they're aren't English native, it is acceptable. Kinda weird I still need English subtitle while watching UK or US based TV series or Movie which obviously in English 😂 .
I just find is hard to understand what these thicc accent English saying, but doesn't mean I hate your way of speaking, or language. For me, culture different is there for human to explore.

Hi,
Whould you please tell me if Alaska's cost of living is more expensive than in California? I've never been to Alaska. If I leave California I have thoughts of moving to Alaska or Texas or Mid West States.
Tyrone Kim I have never been to California and I’ve actually wondered the same thing myself. I would only imagine that California MIGHT be cheaper only because it’s still part of the continental states, so it’s cheaper to get things transported there. We don’t have as many taxes though. I’m thinking Texas might be a better bet than Alaska unless you have a good job lined up. I’ve seen where a lot of people move here and end up having a hard time finding a job if they don’t have something already.

While I appreciate the effort gone into this video I do think it was biased. As Nobita mentioned there were so many topics that could have been touched on but the ones that were chosen were cherrypicked to put Japan in the best light. To sum up the video, Korean women have more plastic surgery, Japan has less crime, Korea has higher unemployment rate etc and then referencing newspaper articles that put Japan in a better light like the Japan Times article 'Japan's economy is far from hopeless' and then juxtaposing it with 'South Korea's jobless rate hits highest level since the global financial crisis', without mentioning the fact that Japan is the most indebted nation on earth or that South Korea has been voted the most innovative economy 7 times in a row. Even if some of the points you mention may be true, (however, some people who fact checked your numbers re: your rape figures cannot find where you got those numbers from) I think that if I were to make a video comparing Japan and Korea, I would have tried to make it a more balanced video and not just cherrypicked the points where my country was doing better to make it seem like one country was superior to another. Surely that's not the point of a video titled '10 differences between Japan and South Korea'. This video should have been titled 'why Japan is a better country than South Korea'.

But hey of course I know that not all Japanese people are like that but I think that culturally they get pressured a lot to stay with their own kind.

3:22 The answer of No5. has big problem. First, In Japan, sexual crime is an offense subject to complaint. It means, if sexual victim did not report to the police, it doesn't be a crime, meanwhile, In Korea, sexual crime is an offense indictable without complaint. It means, Even though victim did not report to the police, it can be a crime. Second, In Japan, only penetrative sex is recognized as sexual crimes, on the other hands, In Korea, all kind of sexual harassments is recognized as sexual crime. (and In Sweden all kind of sexual harassments including verbal abuse is recognized as sex crime.) Third, There are huge differences of rejection rate between Japan and Korea. According to both the police department report of both country in 2014, Japanese police had rated 6 times more than Korea's in the rate of rejection of sexual report. It means, 5 of 6 sexual victims can not expect protection from governmental authority in Japan specially in child offenses. If you are set same rejection rate, the victims numbers per 1,000 people will be shown the result as below. 6.6 in Japan and 1.7 in Korea. As the result, In Japan, sexual cases are very hard to be confirmed from police. This differences makes us misunderstanding that there are huge gap in sexual crimes between Japan and Korea. Remind, Stats doesn't show truth.
No more(Korea since 2013,Japan since 2018?). Also, Korea is British common law system now which does not require evidence for guilty convictions(not just sex crimes) ,allows wide and political interpretation and prosecution are no more allowed to investigate cases. The real reason for this is because Korea is highly export dependent and thus had to open its legal market to large law firms which need British common law system to operate. Originally Korean law system started as a hybrid of British common and Japanese derived laws but massive reforms toward transformation to British common law were taken since the mid' 2000s to open the market-the feminists connected to ultraconservative churches were at the forefront. The current Korean law practices are in many cases against Korea's own criminal proceedings law and judges say it is hard for them to issue verdicts.This adds with Korea's mass surveillance system which is a digital implementation of East German Stasi's system that had moving cameras even in corners of rural areas connected to the Stasi centre; As a whole, Korea has become something like a British Commonwealth country(state church is Victorian,legal system is British common and even the military justice system was changed to that of US/UK/CAN/AU/NZ,new license plates look like British ones). Outside their appearance, nowadays Koreans cannot be distinguished from people who live in Southern states.
@@aabb-zz9uw Does that mean we get to draw some Union Jack somewhere in our flag?
Let's add...
In Japan, in the case of sexual assault, if you report it, the victim himself is summoned to the accident site investigation and has to re-enact what happened during the on-site re-verification, even posing. So it's almost never reported. Not only that, but it's surprising that there is a social atmosphere in which people are bullied just to report sexual harassment.
This is not because Japan is ignorant.
By taking advantage of the fact that such a verification method lowers the prosecution and prosecution rate, they are cunningly using the global image marketing strategy of a safe and crime-free Japan.
This is because the global crime rate statistics base focuses on the prosecution rate and the prosecution rate after all.
For reference, in the case of economic offenders in Japan and the United States, after reporting the case, the arbitration agency handles it first, and then proceeds with very careful steps (the victim must reveal the perpetrator's criminal evidence and circumstances in detail) and deliberation. As it is decided whether or not to take it as an enemy fraud case, it is usually resolved without any fuss (in many cases, it is abandoned).
On the other hand, in Korea, there are many cases of fraudulent accusations even in small disputes, and there are almost no prosecutions.
Our Republic of Korea is not called the only democratic country in Asia for nothing. Japan's low crime rate is a terrible mask made that way.
So, according to world statistics, Japan has a very low crime rate and Korea is a lot higher than Japan.
It was the same with the corona statistics.
Japan's sex crime rate is a joke.

@Ice Inducer Oh Why are you pretending to be Korean in the comments when you're not Korean? Do you feel inferior in Korea? I feel sorry for you to see that you're working so hard on the translator.
Seoul vs Tokyo
1) Transportation: I use my T-money in Seoul and my Suica in Tokyo. It is a lot easier to navigate the subway/metro system in Seoul than in Tokyo. In Seoul it is the same company running the system.
2) Finding places: Chicago pretty much works on a grid system, so it is easy to find the location of a place. Without some type of gps, I find it difficult to find some places in Tokyo. I have had no problems in Seoul.
3) Eating: Seoul pretty much has the group/share food mentality. As that is the case, if I am traveling alone, there are many things I can not eat. There isn't Korean bbq for one. In Tokyo, it is not uncommon to eat alone.
4)Fashion: The Japanese have more "swag". In Seoul, when there is a fashion trend, probably everyone from 15-35 follows it- the same clothes, the same hair. In Tokyo, except for the salary men, there is a lot more variation.
5)People: Overall the Japanese are definitely more shy. However, the elderly seems to not have a problem approaching me in either of the two countries.
More like why you prefer s korea over japan xD
Number 4 is the exactly right one 😊
U nailed it.
1) Tokyo has rail everywhere & hokkaido shut down half their train lines due to privatization 2) mostly public lines but Seoul has its own subway system.

He actually listed several areas where Korea surpassed Japan. Overall I like Nobita. If he is a little more favorable towards his home country of Japan, so what? There is nothing wrong with having some national pride. Almost everything he listed was backed up with data. Some of it is subjective like looks, but not the vast majority.

There's a big flaw in the statistics about plastic surgery in Korea, because it is based on the sole number of surgeries performed, which includes that of foreigners. There were about 140,000 foreigners who came to Korea just to do plastic surgery in 2018 alone (roughly 30% of all surgeries). Aggressive foreign marketing (there's K-surgery tours in China, Japan, SE Asia) and having the best plastic surgeons in the world who are best at creating the ideal East Asian face is just some of the big factors for Korea's plastic surgery fame. It's frustrating to see people assume a Korean girl did surgery just because she's pretty, ALL the time. Like people forget there's just pretty people everywhere? That being said, Korea is still definitely one of the most "image" conscious countries in the world.
Wow, thats actually something I glossed over. Thanks for the knowledge mate!
Comfort women en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comfort_women
the bigger flaw in the stats is that the majority of procedures are double eyelid surgery. that is less skin than male circumcision which is not considered cosmetic surgery even though it is. and its probably just as common as Japanese women having their teeth bent inward but that too is probably not considered cosmetic surgery even though it is purely cosmetic.
Also, I think in East Asia the very popular double eyelid surgery isn't even considered plastic surgery, at least by the general public.
In 2024, more than 40% of all plastic surgeries were performed on foreigners. Mainly from Thailand, China, and Japan.
He needs a close Korean friend. There are more differences between Japan and South Korea.
@지예서 Yea. Koreans often have square face with rigid jaws, short nose, high cheek bones, and small eyes (One of the smallest in Asia) while Japanese often have slender jaws, tall nose, short cheek bones, and big eyes (One of the biggest in Asia. They have so many differences.

@Blessica M you don't even know. You are so insecure about other people's opinions. Are you a stupid teen, a troll or something like that.
The Japanese people are of southern descent, so many people have darker skin and double eyelids than other Northeast Asians. On the other hand, Koreans are of northern descent, so there are many people with pale skin and monolid. Most people of northern descent in Japan are of Korean (Baekje) descent from a long times ago. In fact, Japanese and Koreans have the most similar genes.

It comes down to fashion. Koreans have a different sense of style. If a Japanese person was to do the type of fashion popular in SK, you wouldn’t be able to tell they’re Japanese. It’s the same vice-versa.
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.

The high rate of sexual crimes in S. Korea is due to differences in the way statistics are collected. In S. Korea, relatively minor crimes other than rape, such as sexual harassment, are grouped into the same category as rape and classified as serious crimes. In Japan, only serious crimes such as rape are classified as serious crimes. Even taking this into account, Japan may have a lower crime rate, but the difference is not that much.
The reason why high rate of Korea’s plastic surgery is peole who come from Japan, USA and especially China. There are many ‘surgery tour’ in China. Not Koreans affect to high rate of Korea’s plastic surgery

This was a great overview. I've never seen such a nice video that compares countries. Since you have a lot more subjects that you did not have time to discuss in this video, I would definitely be interested in seeing more in the future.
Poor mind people,like Japanese,are jealous of Koreans. Bad rumors about Koreans spread by Japanese make false impression about Koreans. Japanese pritend to be nice,but it's fake. We must not believe these kind of liars. Japan still uses the Rising Sun Flag. The Rising Sun Flag does mean Hakenkreuz for Asians. We should be aware of these kind of people. They are Fake people.
I love both , 🇯🇵❤️🇰🇷
From Italy 🙋🏻♂️
thx because im korean XD but in 1910 japan taked korea and they killed a lot of koreans but japan is still not apologize to korea
@@김건희-z4e I kinda wish Japan would apologize to Korea
I'm Japanese. Our government has already apologized in the past. Although, Koreans continuously criticizes Japan and asks for apology. That is just a emotional criticism. Koreans hate Japan. Thats why they keep criticizing Japan.
@@enopis7394 we want a sincere apology. Japan government denies that they used many korean woman as sex slaves. Please do not rhink im biased, i also think korea should sincerely apologize to vietnam too.
@@enopis7394 Japanese people always say, they've apologized in past. Are you talking about "Treaty on Basic Relations between Japan and the Republic of Korea" ? There is no apology in that treaty. Japanese government had never officially apologized before , except 2015 about comfort woman. There is still Yatsukuni Shrine in Japan, they honor WW2 war criminals there. Japanese officials visit there often and bow. Even Japanese prime minister Abe sent flower to that Shrine every year. Korean want Japanese politicians to apologize about that.
Japan will be always in my heart even if I have never been there.
thats not how it works
u lame asf
@@Rolexjimmy u cant just say i love u to a person if you havent been there it doesnt work like that
Yeah bro
What?
How can you blame him ? He's Japanese after all, of course he's gonna praise Japan. Japanese people are proud of their country unlike many of us in Western countries... 😅
But here's my opinion from a Western point of view.
South Korea is more opened to Western culture and it shows through people's clothing, behavior and ability to speak English. Korean culture (K-Pop and makeup) is more mainstream whereas Japanese culture is more "niche" and specific (mostly mangas and anime) I'd say. It can also explains why they tend to do more surgery in order to look more European. I've collected quite a lot informations about Japanese and Korean fashion/beauty trends and I noticed that girls in Korea are, like some people said, overall more into sexy and modern/western fashion trends than Japanese are. Japanese are either very classic, girly or vintage. Or extreme (Harajuku). Koreans are more into girly/chic or sportswear/minimalist type of vibes. Also, they want to look young but like actual young women whereas in Japan it doesn't bother grown women to look like 14 yo girls (I'm barely exaggerating). In fact they're even accentuating it; contact lenses that makes irises look bigger, short hair with bangs, teeth ("yaeba") amongst other things. Overall, the whole "kawaii" trend is very childish if you think about it. Every culture has somehow an admiration for youth but in Japan they are taking school boys/girls to another level. Take any anime, 90% of the main characters are no older than 17. I don't see that in Korean dramas, not as much at least.
As for lifestyle, I've heard a lot of praise and good things coming from both sides. Both countries seems to be very pleasant to live in (safe, clean, respectful people, great food...) in theory. However, there's a big difference between spending a few days or a few months and living in a country. If I had to chose, from what I've heard... I wouldn't chose Japan. Here's why : 1) the fact it's pretty hard to find a job as a foreigner, even if you're qualified and even if you have connections. In fact, it's quite hard to fit in as a stranger as soon as it comes to work. Needless to say it's not even worth trying if you don't speak Japanese 2) people, even though they're lovely, have a very specific way of acting in society ("tatemae") which can be seen as fake/hypocritical. As a very spontaneous/clumsy person everyday I'd be afraid to offend people, no joke 3) women's position in Japanese society. Even my boyfriend, who lived in Japan for three years and loves the country so much that it sounds like propaganda sometimes, has to admit that women's place is still quite reductive and Japanese men are not the most gallants, that's why a lot of Japanese women prefer dating foreigners (according to him). Even though Japanese women are known for being very modest he told me it was easy for him to smash lol... Probably because he was playing the French cliche's card. Anyways. Also, the very problematic subject of the Lolicon.
SK also has aspects I'm not in fond of (such as those unrealistic beauty standards that are very problematic) but their way of life seems more adapted for Westerners than Japan. Japan is quite different from the rest of the world... I'm far from saying it's bad place, I'd really like to go there one day to visit but I just don't know if I could fit in the society as a very French (adopted) girl with Vietnamese roots 😂 Like, I heard Japanese people are genuinely curious around foreigners and in a very nice way but by that I mean Caucasians and POC. I'm neither, I'm just a boring Asian girl who doesn't speak a single word of Japanese nor any other Asian language 😂😂😂 They'd try to talk to me but that would be my white af bf who would reply lol, already happened, I felt useless as some dead leaves on the pavement 🍃😂
No worries, we still love you!
Great comment. Thanks for the info!
@SUCKMEOFF ROPER to begin with, you only repeated what I already said but in a negative/twisted way in your fist paragraph.
Then if you'd have read properly you'd know I'm not white and even less a "white invader", I actually feel good in my country and have no plan to immigrate, thanks.
Also, nice for all of the Japanese women who are married to foreigners... 😂
In an era where the majority stands by the "open world" concept which is undeniably a progress (except for xenophobic people), sorry but you sound old and bitter.
@SUCKMEOFF ROPERWow totally normal response. 👎 Get help.
You're more open to the Poz, that's great for you guys. Enjoy your drastic population shrink in the next 50 years, followed by calls for mass-third world immigration by your government and media. Lemme know how it works out for ya, if I'm able to live to the late 21st century.
I never knew about a lot of the things you had mentioned about South Korea except for the beauty standard. If you are up to making a video about the other differences you mentioned, even if it's long I'd still watch it I love hearing this kind of information

One of your best videos yet, Nobita! Thank you for your time and research.
Are you kidding? Don't trust what Japanese say. 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 Rising Sun Flag does mean Hakenkreuz for Koreans. Japanese people have little moral. We should not believe these kind of people.
Something I noticed, studying the respective languages( and being around Korean and Japanese here in the US) Korean seems to be more direct, while Japanese is passive.
Nobita is amazing!!

확실히 일본인 관점이라 우리랑 다른 부분이 많네요. 한 가지 말하고 싶은건 일본의 여성에 대한 인식이 많이 다르다는거에요. 우리나라는 미투운동이 확산되어 피해자도 목소리를 내는 반면 일본의 한 여자분은 용기내어 폭로했다가 오히려 비난받고 이민까지 가신걸로 알고 있어요. 성범죄도 신고하지 않는 부분이 많다고 생각해요. 일본을 깎아내리려는 의도는 없지만 가끔 일본 방송을 보면 우리나라에서는 범죄가 되는 행동들이 많이 있습니다. 인식이 다른거겠죠. 두 나라 비교관점 잘 들었어요. 현재 우리나라 사회 문제점들이 다 들어가 있네요. 여기 댓글 보면 비교가 심한데 서로 헐뜯고 싸우지는 맙시다.
저게 관점이 다른거냐? 자극적인 이슈들만 모아서 왜곡하고, 혐한질하는거지?..
한마디로 똥인지 된장인지도 구분 못할정도로 사리분멸 못하면 왜사는지 스스로 한번 진지하게 고민해보길...
아임 아메리칸
잇츠 굿
완벽한 왜곡입니다. 예를들어 성추행을 일본은 경범죄로 분류하고 한국은 성범죄로 분류합니다. 신고율도 차이가 많이나고..단순히 통계만 보면 호주랑 스웨덴이 강간의 왕국인데 실제는 아니죠.
3분의 1 여자가 성형수술했다는것부터 거르셈 일본뽕 존나 맞은 새끼임

In South Korea 0.7million surgeries a year, in Japan 1.2million surgeries a year. Not that much different. Please get your facts straight.
Yeah, nationality isn’t in the statistics for plastic surgery in Korea.
@@meteoryoyo I just feel sorry for Japanese people and weeaboos being brainwashed by Japanese stupid media and government. Not knowing exactly what had happened back in the day, they are also missing out important issues of history and opportunities to have proper education. I hope they have more access to learn about world history that are not filtered by Japanese media and government.
In Korea,only uneducated people watch Japanese anime. Smart people don't watch anime because anime include a lot of lies. It is said that some anime makes bad rumors about Korea. Japan disses Korea through anime. 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 Rising Sun Flag does mean Hakenkreuz for Asians. Japanese people pretend to be nice,but their faces are not real one. We should be aware of these kind of people. Their nature have racism or white superiority in their mind.
One sided video. 😕 I like koreans tho.
How is it one-sided? uwu
Is it because these facts are told by a Japanese man?
All he did was point out differences with statistics.
Is it the subjects he chose that you perceive intrinsic bias?
Uh, idiot alert
Pls do not misunderstood my opinion regarding this videos cause it gives me bad impression in terms of females japanese and koreans. He said, more of koreans do plastic surgery. I am not korean but now beacuse of this video, i am thinking if the koreans are not really beautiful. it gives me bad ideas about koreans tho and that its not good.
Ren Maybe I didn’t pay enough attention to the video, but I can’t recall one bad thing he said about Japan.
@@RenKohana that statistics are from japan... Sexual crime rates are absolutely ridiculous because japanese girl usually can't speak about crime because their hiding culture
I'm planning a travel trip to south korea by myself real soon and mind blown lol hard to believe teaching English in south korea is not hard like it is hard for japanese ppl who r struggling for years to say one English word.

Japanese people get plastic surgery in Korea, where plastic surgery technology is developed, so it is included in Korean statistics a lot.

at least in Japan they have more relaxe lifestyle except in big city
they are not boring they just keep on the rail and dedicate on their passion in their profesion

Most of Japanese prefer live in Japan than abroad. Foreign vacation is good. But home country is best place to live.
I would chose Korea for having the much easier writing system.
Hiragana and Katakana are really easy
Yea I literally learned to read and write within a day
@@_MaxEnzo_ have heard about kanji lol
@@_MaxEnzo_ To be fluent in Japanese, you need to know kanji as well. Conversational Japanese is fine, but getting around Japan requires a minimum knowledge of kanji. (Ref. Myself living and working in Japan as well as everybody else I know.)
Being a tourist is another story, but if you're to live in Japan for a while, kana and travel Japanese only are not enough.
@@coralie288 What job do you do in Japan. I would like to reach fluency in Japanese, my conversational skills need work but reading and writing skills are proficient although I've never seriously studied. But now I would like to gauge how much Kanji or vocabulary I must learn to be able to get around Japan without any difficulty or how long it took you to gain proficiency. I don't really have trouble learning Kanji but more so learning which vocabulary is frequently used and whether to learn casual speech or formal. I would appreciate it if you could help me understand what your experience has been.
Dont treat Japan and Korea like twins. Its quite different. Claiming that North Korea and South korea is twins is more appropriate.
