Getting a driver's license in Japan is very strict and the most expensive in the world.Owning a car in Japan is very difficult compared to other countries.

I realized through the old Japanese cars that are popular in Southeast Asia that Japan is a society that does not value old things.I think this is something that can be applied not only to cars but also to people.

In Japan, single people are fined. A singles tax will be implemented next year, and new taxes will also be implemented next year. Even though salaries have not increased for 30 years, taxes are probably the highest in the world.

There are some unspoken rules in Japanese society that people from other countries don't understand.For example, it's common sense to stay quiet on the train, and you should never share a seat with someone else.

There was an incident that was caused by the peer pressure that is unique to Japanese society. It was the mask refusal incident in 2020.It was a typical incident in which doing something different from others led to criticism.How difficult it is to stick to your own views in Japan.This incident clearly illustrates Japanese society.

Japanese society is collectivist, so there is a lot of pressure to conform among Japanese people. Not only during your student days, but even after joining the company, if you act differently from others, you will get into trouble. I think this pressure to conform is one of the reasons why Japanese workers are overworked.
