I often receive comments and messages saying “My dream is to live in Japan.” As a Japanese living in Japan, on one hand, I am happy and honored about it, but on the other hand, I have mixed feelings too. It’s because I actually hope to leave Japan in the near future. But how did a Japanese man like me end up thinking this way?

So today, I will talk about the three main reasons why I personally cannot recommend you to live in Japan. The three reasons will get more and more important towards the end, so I hope you can stay with me until the end. Lastly, I will also like to list the kind of people who ARE suited to live in Japan.

Before I move on, I need to make it clear to you that the purpose of making this video is not to lessen the number of people living in Japan. My life's goal is to try to make as many people happy as possible, so I wish that the information I share will be useful for anyone trying to plan their future. If there’s anything else you’d like to know more about living in Japan, please let me know in the comments!
