My Most EMBARRASSING Mistakes as a Foreigner in Japan
Переглядів 421Рік тому
Japan, where etiquette is king, and social rules are God. While I’ve had a host of wonderful experiences in the time I’ve lived here, there have been those times where I have, badly messed up. If you aren’t careful, navigating Japanese etiquette as a foreigner can make you feel like a wrecking ball, haplessly smashing against the unwritten formal rules that govern society, annoying the locals a...

I'm a bald, white, American guy living in Japan who is currently wearing a hair system. I also often got the "You look like Jason Statham" comments or "かっこいい" comments as well. But frankly, I hate my appearance as a bald person and I definitely feel like it hurt my dating prospects here. I still dated as a bald guy, but since I started wearing a hair system, my matches and messages on dating apps and language exchange apps, and meetings improved. Not to say that I'm meeting women all the time or something (since I just turned 41, so the dating pool isn't so great and meeting younger women is much more difficult), but I still have had more success with "hair" than without. It's definitely a pain in the ass to wear hair systems, especially in the beginning when you get them new and hair to trim all the excess material off of them to fit the bald area of your head, and attaching it (with tape, glue, or both), but once it's cut and ready to wear, just having to remove it once every 2 weeks give or take and clean it and reattach it, it's not too bad, usually. Of course I wish I just had hair like when I was younger, but this at least gives me an option to have hair and have a second chance at life. Even people that I've known since when I was bald have said that they forgot that I was bald and got used to me with hair, or when I told people about it being fake, they had no idea and didn't care that it was fake, so it's definitely something to consider.
Excellent, informative and descriptive video with an exciting variety of specific places of interest !! However, excessively showing off his bare legs, shorts, and constant focus of video footage on his face. That was totally unnecessary, since we viewers are primarily interested in seeing NAHA, not continuous naked male legs from behind, and a face with a hat.
Hello OpenWorld Japan! Im Angie from Un Poco Loco Japon! I really enjoyed your video! It kind of have similar vibes are our videos!! lol! But ours in spanglish/japanese mix. I was looking for inspiration for our next trip videos and yours really hit the goal! Thx! definitely will go to Himeji! Keep up the good job!
What is the dating experience like as a bald man? I'm Irish, 22 with a receding hairline and long thinning hair, planning to move to Japan next year. But I fear my chances at love will be compromised in Japan compared to at home.
Shouldn’t be a problem! Japanese people think a foreign bald guy (with a shaved head, not a combover or anything) is cool, because it’s emblematic of foreigner culture. They think bald Japanese are not cool because they see it as a sign of poor health, but Japanese will see a foreign guy and see it as a cool fashion choice. Why do they have that standard? I’m not sure lol Also, I’ve seen many international couples where the foreign guy is bald. I’m sure you can find the right person. Best of luck!
I’m a teacher in Japan and I’m balding bad 😂 I need to buzz my dome but I don’t have the guts!
I'm an American who was balding and it gets to a point where you just have to let it go. You will likely look better bald than with sections of hair. hit the gym too. You'll look awesome
@ I took the dive just before Christmas! My students and coworkers were shocked, but I like my new look :) thanks fellow bald bro
@@sulIy glad to hear! And ofc you're welcome! I'm actually headed to Tokyo next month and I'm bald and that's why I'm here xD Jason Stathams Unite! 💪
@ Like the OP said, I’ve found that people think it’s cool! Have fun here in Japan 🇯🇵 it’s a great place
Was called a "mini Vin Diesel" (I have a similar olive kinda tanned skin colour and dark eyes, but I am only about 169-171 cm tall or so) by a couple Japanese girls in a sushi bar who sat next to me during one of my long trips there lol
僕も熱海大好き!
良かったね!夏で行きましょう ☀️
Bald and bearded is cool. At least that's what I see in myself in the mirror 😎
Hehe
good video, shouldn't eat food on the street. that is a no no 🙂
This is a street famous for 食べ歩き: eating and walking. You’ll see a lot of people doing it there Don’t do it in a residential area, but on streets where there are street foods, the practice is encouraged
UA-cam algorithm might be onto me a little too much...
I thought the same 🤣🤣
ukrainian sushi: 💀
It's all about being comfortable in your own skin. Confidence is key but if someone says something, just rebut about some about their teeth. Then they'll understand. That's the only response from a society that puts so much emphasis on appearance.
Seems about on par with my experience! If you're ever in Osaka let me know! There's a bald restaurant we can try together!
Haha sounds fun
I really and truly enjoyed this video of yours. I used to live in Himeji, and it brought back a lot of memories. Also, I really liked all your little special effects, like the ghost telling you to fix your autofocus. That made me snort-laugh.
Haha, I’m glad someone out there appreciates my silly humor 😂 Thanks for watching
Will be in Japan again in December/January. This time I will spend a week on Okinawa with a daytrip to Tokashiki and Tokashiku Beach. I wanted to check how steep the way to the beach is as I intend to walk there. This is how I found your video. It helped me a lot, thank you very much!
You’re welcome! It’s quite steep and quite far actually. I’d recommend taking the bus. As you get off the ferry, there should be a bus waiting there that most people will get onto. Much better than walking I think. Enjoy your trip!
I am making a cooking video about Himeji food. Could I have your permission to use a clip from this video inside mine, please? Of course, I will credit your channel. Cheers! =)
Sure, go ahead!
@@OpenWorldJapan Thank you!
What happen if u tell them I join buddhist monk
You’d probably get a basic “sugoi” and a hand clap, and then they would immediately forget about it lol
How was this hike? Im looking into checking this out in October
I think this is an intermediate hike and not too difficult, but it is somewhat long, especially if you want to enjoy yourself. I recommend starting as early in the day as possible. The first time I tried to do this hike with my friend, we were told to turn back around halfway because we started to late and it would get dark. Enjoy the hike!
Did you know the Timetable of that special Cat train? Because it is offline.
I had checked it at the station beforehand
im in Naha right now and this weather is CHAOS and ruining all plans! hehe but yeah the outfit is cool SUBSCRIBED :) haha
Thank you!! Enjoy your trip 🌺
Just noticed the subtitle error! Oops 😂 I said “Definitely feels like I’m in Shōgun now.” Bonus points if you can tell me where the intro music is from 😉
This was a fun video! And I would just like to say that you look really similar to Broden Kelly from Aunty Donna
I don’t know who that is 😂 Thanks for watching
People have always dealt with different as making them feel slightly uncomfortable so they tend to make fun of it in response. It wouldn't matter if everyone were bald, people wound look for another thing that stood out. Less than 1% could care less.
Japanese street interview are mostly stage .
Or at the very least edited to look more sensational
@@OpenWorldJapan ua-cam.com/video/2xKEeGue5VA/v-deo.html
I didn't know it was so bad, I just shave mine bald cause it's too hot. But those clippers you got do the whole thing? Mine leavevway to much hair and I need to use a razor for an hour at least. Do your clippers make you bald. Mine only cut me down to 5 days growth or so.
These ones cut down to about a 2 day growth which is alright, but I have this other electric shaver which finishes the job. It has six circular blades and kind of looks like a flower if that’s makes sense. You can find it on Amazon lol
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing. I’m planning a trip to Tokyo/Osaka and the islands. Tokashiki looks beautiful. What time of the year did you visit? I’ve read about the typhoons. I’m planning to go in September, but I’m not sure if that’s a good time to visit weather-wise. Thanks! ✨
I visited in April! Any time of the year, weather in Okinawa is a gamble. I got lucky, so you might too. All the best for your trip!
@@OpenWorldJapan thank you very much ! 😄
Literally no cap 🧢
doesn't matter if you're gaijin. Bald Japanese are really miserable.
The lights were the best part said my daughter! Is the sea candle lighting an all year round thing? Was it hard heading back to Tokyo by train at night?
I believe the lights are only there during winter! Also it was very easy getting back at night. The odakyu line is very reliable
Five things ? Jesus, I’ve been here nearly 30 years and I could give you a list of 20. Can’t wait to hear your top 5
I could probably list a few more than 5 too haha
Lucky ! ! ! ! I wanna be bald too !
excellent, thanks for letting us see a different side to Tokyo
Thank you for this great video !!!!
Just this week a 5 year old girl asked me "why don't you have hair!?". I told her my hair decided to leave me. She was a bit confused but laughed...and btw, I've known this neighbor girl for over one year but just now she asked. Then the next day I passed some kids playing soccer in a school yard and while I drove past they started yelling at me. Their soccer ball was kicked over the school fence and they hoped I could retrieve the ball for them. I stopped the car, threw the ball to them and one of them yelled..."cool haircut!"... I'm so used to shaving my head since my hair began to thin. I don't ever think about it till asked. Not sure if it is confidence or just accepting reality.
Happy to hear that! Buzz cut us coolest haircut confirmed
Funny, my name is Lucky and I am bald.
Do bald white men do well on tinder in east asian countries like japan? Please tell me man. I'm currently typing this from a mental institution because balding has been ruinous for my mental health. I used to do really well with east asian women but I know that's because they liked a tall athletic guy with a nice pompadour haircut. Now I am bald. No east asian women like me. :(
Well considering all the international couples I’ve seen around Tokyo with a bald white guy, I think you’ll be ok
@@OpenWorldJapan Thanks man. If this is sincere and these are not just beta bucks relationships, I will be confident. Thank you
This is what triggered acute mental illness for me = the realisation that the women I want to meet i.e. east asian women are the ones least likely to accept a bald man. Truly brutal.
Hi! must've flew past me, but just wanted to confirm which station is the Tamaden street at? I couldn't find it on google maps anywhere 😭 Thanks!
Miyanosaka! Very close to the cat temple Hope that helps!
@@OpenWorldJapan thanks a lot 💗
That intro is so 80’s that my iPhone bécame a walkman
Haha 😂 I love 80s vibes. Maybe my editing skills have improved since then
Lets be bald together! I love Japanese peoples though 😊, they're the coolest.
I agree! I have never been treated poorly for being bald, and repeatedly get told I look like Jason Statham
Can we use IC card for the cat train?
Yes you can, but please be warned at all stations aside from the two terminuses, you will need to tap the IC card on the train itself as there are no stations gates
Hi, this video helps me a lot in a review of Tokashiki. Will head there in 3 weeks. Thanks for the video
Enjoy!
Great video! I plan to visit this year, appreciate the views from the beaches and the observatories!
Sometimes I miss having hair. But then again I don't have to style my hair, pay for haircuts, dry my hair, and it's cooler in the summer. Also samurai used to shave their heads. Yep. Those are my excuses.
Can you get taxis from there back to Tokyo/yokohama?
I’m not sure, but if you download the Go Taxi app, you should be able to check. At the very least, you should be able to get a taxi back to Isehara station and take the Odakyu Line back to Shinjuku from there. Hope that helps!
Yes, they like to make fun of baldness. And expect people with baldness should accept it and respond it in a humorous way like in some standup comedy. Body shaming is pretty common there. By the way, i have early baldness. When i lived there, i was even laughed while commuting on the train
I’m sorry that happened to you.
Stop loosing your stuff :-D
Haha I have learned my lesson now! I always check my pockets before I stand up to leave anywhere
Got this on my recommended and clicked not thinking much of it, cause it seemed like an interesting video. Only once I was halfway through and left for a bit and came back later did I realise it came from a small channel. I would’ve easily thought this came from a channel with 100k+ subs 😅 keep up the good videos man!
Thank you!
Very nice! As a bald American living in Japan, I was a little self conscious about it but seeing your video made me feel better. Thanks!
Thank you!
I remember that one time I went to the post office, did all my transfers and withdrew what was remaining after that which would be my monthly fun money (as I drain out the Japanese account) and put it all in a folder that contained my passports and other important documents which I had on the time on me. I went on my motorbike and zipped off to see my client. The meeting was a success and then after wanting to grab a bite to eat, I then realised that all of my stuff was missing. I quickly phoned the post office that time and they thankfully had my documents but will be closed by the time I arrived. There was a police box nearby them so they would drop it off along the way. On the way home, I went to the same police box which was unmanned. I entered and used the phone inside to ring the police station and informed them that I was here to collect the items. They acknowledged my request and said the police officer would be there .................. in 1.5 hours. I eventually got the items back but lesson learnt.
As mendokusai as that was for you, we should still be incredibly grateful you got your stuff back. In a lot of places around the world, you’d never see your stuff again. Thanks for the comment Marvin!
