After what happened to the tragic and horrible Halloween stampede in Itaewon South Korea that kills hundred of people Shibuya better take note and prepare with emergency and good crowd control.

By this logic then all the song with the same title with be sued all over the place. Example 'Hello' which is title by artists Adele, Evanescence, Beyonce, the Cat Empire, Eminem, Martin Solveig, Dragonette, Oasis, Lionel Richie. 'Bad' U2 & Michael Jackson, 'Holiday' by Madonna & Green Day, It's My Life by Bon Jovi, No Doubt, Dr. Alban. The list can go on and on....

Compared to 70 year old Putin who hide behind a long desk and do a 60s Soviet style propaganda rallies Zelensky know his audience and use all the technological advances of a modern world to get his message across the board to the American, European and Japanese politicians. What is important is that the Japanese publics can watch this over youtube and across social media and will have a sympathetic/positive opinions towards Ukraine.

Japan with it;s huge money and influences have secured enough vaccine but because of redtape and insufficient manpower and some of its have to be thrown away. Taiwan in the other hand has been blocked by China from securing vaccine. It's a win win situation actually for both countries who are very friendly towards each other.

Here in Malaysia we already have cases where people coming back from India bring the new covid variant, and yes it is scary and serious

Unfortunately Japan has legal precedent on their side because suprise, suprise, every nuclear energy country have been doing that discreetly and quietly without any funfair (South Korea included). Japan has the honor of getting the headline due to Fukushima

Hmm yeah right a total flake for someone who already won Olympic gold 2 times back to back and still relatively young (26 years old) but definitely will struggle to keep up with the young ones in terms of fitness.

Hmm, in Korea Herald there is a line here...

In this case, the court could seize the property of the Japanese Embassy in Korea or the assets of the Japanese Cultural Center in Korea, although this might not be easy in reality.

Kim Dae-wol, a manager at the House of Sharing, a nursing home south of Seoul for survivors of Japanese military sexual slavery, said, “The grandmothers do not place much meaning on compensation. Because they don’t have much time left to live.” The victims, known as the grandmothers to their supporters, watched Friday’s ruling at the nursing home online in real time.

“Rather than reparations, there is a greater desire for an apology and they hope that the government will inform its people of these things so that there will be no such war crimes in the future.”

Kinda they are not really doing it for the elderly lady, but seizing Japanese embassy's property and Japanese cultural assets in Korea is very fishy indeed.

It's China's right to remember their own history and commemorate the tragedy, but people tend to forget what can the current generation do to prevent such atrocities, Do China be a better government that treats its own citizens, ethnic minorities and it's surrounding neighbor right? Or as their economy grows becoming more arrogant and behaves exactly what the Imperial Japanese has done before. History will repeats itself.....

Bullying and discrimination based on race, gender, sexual orientation need to be addressed and discussed just like any mature democracy. It's happen to even Japanese children what is more if you're different from the rest. Japan is no exception. As a democratic country you NEED to improve in order to move forward. But it's has to start from Japanese citizens themselves.

Congrats!

Yikes, Lebanon right now is in chaos, people are angry, fed up with their government right now. Being right there where Lebanese political and economic elites is hated due to corruption certainly won't help him and his family right now.

Sadly the only thing that gonna make people nervous and scared of going out is rows and rows of dead bodies in a coffin just like what is happening in Italy and New York.

The hikikomori won't have any problem at all....

The fact that some delusional BTS fans are arguing in twitter because the fact their favourire kpop group just number three below Arashi and Taylor Swift amuses me. They keep coming up with different numbers and acting like the whole system is against them smh...

I suspected it is due to South Korean are worried that their kpop industry gonna suffer because their artists cannot go to Japan to make money

The irony is that China's response is more rational and understanding given the current situation.

Dear South Koreans, now is the time to STAY in your country, why on earth they feel the need to travel overseas now puzzled me as most countries already restrict and banning their citizens from travelling to South Korea.

Anime/manga is medium, just like music, movies, video game and all sorts of entertainment. There are manga telling stories that is so diverse (shounen, shoujou, right wing ideology, politics, violent and gore, fantasy etc etc.)

Err doesn't he know many Mexican directors and movie has won the academy award before?

Congrats Hanyu

Well done Yuzu!

Isolation is good but you also need to take into account the local population of Christmas Island as well

All of foreign countries are beginning evacuating its citizens, UK government in the meantime are being criticized for being too slow compared to the Americans and Japanese

Christmas Island citizens: no thanks....

The United States is also evacuating of of its citizens right now, well at least the developed nations are. Foreigners in China that comes from poorer countries are left alone to fend for themselves.

Labanese who are protesting for weeks now due to economic and political crisis are definitely not amused now.

Japanese artist and perform the best in expressing their freedom of expression when they are not tied in to any government sponsored project. Example is Hirokazu Koreeda who are not bothered to get Japanese government's recognition.

RIP

If Japanese lenders starts pulling out their money from then it's going to be trouble for SK
