Ta-da. Ok how far would you go with a foreigner. Friendship - Dating - Marriage...
- I could....
Is there a type of person you want to be friends with. - Foreign friend? I like Koreans.
Do you want them to teach you anything? - Korean.
If you had a foreign friend, what would you do? - Go shopping together
Next would be dating. Are you ok with that? - I am!
Why so? Do you want to date a Korean boy?
It doesn't matter. Where are you from? - Germany. - You're so pretty.
Thank you. - Asians, Russians or Germans....
Everyone is great. You all look pretty. I love them all.
That makes me happy. I am sure those who watch feel happy hearing that.
I want to date a hot foreign boy. - What's your type?
I like Korean boys. They are cool.
Could it be you're into K-pop? - I am.
Why do you not want to date a foreigner?
I.... only want to... date ... Japanese.
You would marry a foreigner. Why? - I want to make a child with a foreigner.
You want half-Japanese children? - I do. - Why so?
I have seen many and they all look so cute. I want to give birth to a cute child.
I see. Do you want to dress them cute or make them TV stars?
I want them to wear cute and frilly clothes that I haven't worn.
Clothes like these? - Yes! - Oh please do! - Marriage...
What foreign marriage do you want to have?
I can marry anyone if I love them, as long as we are happy.
Would you move to another country for him? - What?
I like Japan... that would be difficult.
After marriage you want to stay in Japan - Yes. - Will you live in another country?
If he wants me to come with him, I will follow. - That's strong! And you can't marry a foreigner?
Like I said earlier.... I won't. - Because your current boyfriend is Japanese?
Yes. - Gotcha. - What would you be worried about in an international marriage?
The language and the differences in culture.
If we are too different, we might have to end it. - And you?
The language and daily life might be very different...
that could become a problem. - Why would you like a foreign friend?
Everyone is so friendly. - What friend from a country
do you want? - Some of the.... pale type with beautiful eyes.
A Hollywood star type? - Yes. - Why is friendship ok?
Because I can learn another language. - Is that your ulterior motive?
Well yeah. I want to go abroad some day. -Liar.
My horizon is broader than the sky over Japan.
Going abroad I would see my real potential.
Ok... RAPPER. - You want to try and be a rapper abroad? - Yeah.
Is there a favorite rapper you like? - Not a foreign one.
I only like Japanese artists. I want to know more foreign ones though.
I like Japanese rap though. - You wanna date a foreign girl? - The Emma Watson type.
Everyone likes her. - I loved Hermione. I wanted to live the Harry Potter life.
But it never happened.
If I could change my life I would become Harry Potter and date Hermione.
So it should be a girl like Emma Watson? - She is so beautiful.
I love her. She is so stylish.
She is super slender.
And that one ... - I like that one. - The slender and...
stylish type. What would you do with her?
I would take pictures in front of the Stature of Liberty with her.
All three of you seem to have a thing for Americans. - We do.
Are Americans popular in Japan?
Not that but they're more known. We don't know much about other countries.
You would date a foreigner but not marry her?
Why is that? - I think there would be too much fighting.
It sounds tough to live with a foreigner. - You wouldn't marry either?
Since I was a little boy I decided to marry a Japanese girl.
When I was 3 years old, I didn't think of foreigners.
From that age you wanted a Japanese wife. - Yes. - And you won't marry either?
Foreign women seem to be too much of a nuisance.
What exactly? - They seem to be strong minded.
Japanese people match to others. Foreigners are too strong. So I would only have to obey.
She might be too selfish? - Yeah can't deal with that.
I see... - But foreigners don't cheat as much as Japanese people.
I heard a lot that Japanese men cheat a lot, yeah.
I heard that foreign boys don't cheat as much.
Do you think your friends would cheat on their girlfriends?
Well... Once they drink... I can't say....
Well please don't. So director, are we good?
Those were our questions. Thank you.
Frienship. Would like to learn another person's language.
Dating, girls said Korean or anywhere else in the world. Boys said Emma Watson or a....
..... busty foreigner. Marriage. The girls want cute half Japanese
kids but moving to the other person's country is actually not on the table.
The predominant Japanese people seem to have of foreigner is the US kind of
Hollywood foreigner they would like to date marry or just be friends with.
One of the reasons for that might be that they have less exposure to other countries'
other cultures, because the media here is stronger with Hollywood movies and such.
For me personally it doesn't matter where my partner is from, because I think what's important is the heart
same for friendships and dating. One thing I am aware of is that...
marriage in Japan especially for ladies comes with a lot of responsibilities. Sometimes you have to take care
of your partner's family, sacrifice a couple of freedoms that I might have
in my current culture, that I will have to sacrifice or endure
here in Japan in order to make everyone happy and live in harmony together with my partner's
family. There are a couple of things you have to take into consideration when it's about marriage...
you don't want to disappoint your partner's family either and family in Japan is very important.
Friendship, dating and marriage, now how far would you like to go with
a foreigner, someone from a country not your own. Someone not necessarily from Japan. Maybe
someone from Jamaica or from Spain or from a different culture ....
do you think you think you can be friends with them, date them or
do you think you would actually go as far as marrying them. Like some Japanese people said it doesn't matter
where your partner is from as long as your partner has the right heart and loves you very much.
