South Korean President Moon Jae-in has been quick to share the outcome of inter-Korean

summit.

He talked with U.S. President Donald Trump last night and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo

Abe this morning.

Our Oh Jung-hee is on the line for us with more.

Jung-hee, fill us in.

Good afternoon, Jiyeon.

South Korea's presidential office confirmed this morning that President Moon Jae-in spoke

with U.S. President Donald Trump last night... for 1 hour and 15 minutes.

President Trump first congratulated President Moon on the successful inter-Korean summit...

and said it represents significant progress in Seoul-Pyongyang relations.

President Moon replied that the inter-Korean summit lays the groundwork for success in

President Trump's own summit with the North Korean leader.

President Trump evaluated it's a very nice news to not only the two Koreas but also the

whole world that they reaffirmed the goal of achieving nuclear-free Korean Peninsula

through complete denuclearization.

The leaders of Seoul and Washington reaffirmed that their governments will continue to coordinate

closely to achieve the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

Now, on that front, the two agreed that it will be helpful to hold a Washington-Pyongyang

summit as soon as possible to keep up the momentum of the inter-Korean summit.

They have narrowed the possible locations of the meeting down to two or three.

President Trump said he's very much looking forward to meeting with the North Korean leader.

We're hearing that President Moon Jae-in also talked with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo

Abe.

Tell us about that, too.

You're right, South Korean President Moon Jae-in and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo

Abe talked on the phone for 45 minutes today.

Prime Minister Abe praised the Panmunjom Declaration... and agreed with President Moon that the specifics

of the denuclearization process could be designed at U.S.-North Korea summit.

The Japanese leader said Tokyo is willing to talk with Pyongyang to normalize relations

with the North and settle the affairs of the past,... and President Moon told Abe that

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un feels the same.

Prime Minister Abe said he will work for an opportunity to talk with North Korea and will

ask for South Korea's help if necessary, and Moon replied he'd be happy to provide that.

Prime Minister Abe also said he appreciated Seoul sending national intelligence agency

chief Suh Hoon over to Japan to explain the outcome of inter-Korean summits.

Suh met with Abe at his office in Tokyo on Sunday morning.

Back to you, Jiyeon.

Japan Sumo Association may review ban on women - Duration: 0:59.

The Japan Sumo Association says it's open to hearing opinions regarding a controversial

ban on women in the ring.

The association is facing some pretty strong backlash for kicking female first responders

out of the ring while they were trying to revive an official who had collapsed.

Sumo is closely linked to ancient Shinto rites; women aren't allowed in the ring, or dohyo,

because they're traditionally considered "ritually unclean."

After the women were ordered to leave, salt was thrown in the ring as an act of purification.

Just days later, a female mayor was banned from giving a speech in the ring.

Instead she had to speak beside it and said: "Female mayors are also humans.

I am frustrated that I cannot give this speech on the dohyo just because I am a woman."

The Sumo Association's board agreed Saturday to let women enter the ring in emergency situations

but has not overturned the ban outside of those circumstances.

Japan's MOST Traditional Experience? | Staying at a Ryokan 🎌 | Lost in Japan Ep.11 - Duration: 12:37.

I'm not going to lie it takes some getting used to walking in the sandals

Around town

Especially for you guys out there

You'll know exactly what I'm talking about

When you go through this

What is going on Members of the Barrio

It's Jon and we are in Kinosaki.. a famous Onsen town

In Japan, staying at a Ryokan

A traditional Japanese inn

And i'm sure you're curious... what this is all about

But first. We've got to get more into costume

Much better

This is a Yukata

And it's a traditional Japanese robe

I have an upgraded version.. most Ryokans you stay at

You can pay a little bit extra to look.. I think a lot cooler

We're staying in a spot called Kobayashiya

And it is one of the oldest Ryokan's

In Kinosaki

It has been around

For over 300 years

And why don't I show you around the room?

The first step

Always take off your slippers before stepping onto the mat

And we've got doors, upon sliding doors

Here

This is the first room

When you walk in

You can put some of your luggage here

Just any personal belongings

We put a lot of stuff.. in the closet over here

Plenty of closet space

This is the main room

I love this table here

This is actually where we had.. breakfast served today

And where we're going to be having dinner later

Food service is very famous

In these Ryokan's

We had a traditional Japanese breakfast

This morning

Which was absolutely delicious

And I'm excited for.. what should be a super big course

Of dinner tonight

Being served right here

If you're wondering where we slept

They do bring you futons at night

And they actually set the room up

We're going to show you the futons later on

And now..the happiest girl in all of Kinosaki

Adriana

What's going on guys

Look at me

What do you prefer this look or the ninja look?

Oh my god I think the ninja look is more comfortable

But this is prettier

So.. I prefer this one

And we have just an incredible view here

Of the water

Running through the town

I do recommend if you stay in Kinosaki

Ask for a room with a view like this

Their is no bathroom in the room

I'm going to show you what the bathroom is like

I'm going to show you what the bathroom is like in the hallway

And explain that you don't actually need to shower here

Because you spend most of your day

Jumping between different onsens

Which are little natural spring bath houses

Very famous in Japan

And of course very famous in this city

You even have special slippers

For the bathroom

So you have to take off your room slippers

Two styles of bathroom

Western..

Japanese

Whatever you prefer

Putting on Geta. Wooden sandals

I'm not going to lie it takes some getting used to

Walking in the sandals

Around town

Especially for you guys out there

You'll know exactly what i'm talking about

When you go through this

This pass right here gives you access to 7 different Onsen's

Or natural spring bathhouses

And then you have a map

So we're located right here

And the onsens are kind of spread out throughout the town

And on any given day

5 different ones are open

Kinosaki is a nice small town

This is the perfect stop-over

After a lot of heavy siteseeing

In places like Tokyo or Osaka

Essentially all you do is hop between the different onsens

Throughout the day

You know getting a bath

Relaxing

Letting go of stress

It's actually exactly what we needed

After a couple of weeks in Japan

So why don't we show you..a little bit

Of the scenery of this cute village

We just had the strangest experience ever

Yeah.. we were walking and a guy on his bicycle

Asked us where we were from

And he wanted to.. know if he could take a picture of us

So he took a bunch of pictures of us

In different nice locations

It was amazing

I thought he worked for the tourism board or something

That was so.. random

I've never had someone pull over

Take amazing pictures of us

And just bike away

Thank you..bye

Enjoy the hot spring town

I love this town

I'm standing in front of one of the 7 Onsen's in Kinosaki

Onsen- Japanese Hot Spring +Bath

And these things have been around for over 1,000 years

The tradition of bathing in natural hot springs

Is so..rich in Japan

It's so important To the local people

Unfortuanetly.. you normally can't film inside because their is nudity

You have to be naked when you go to bathe

But..

We have gotten special permission to film inside

Where nobody is

Men's changing area

You find a locker

Make sure to put all your stuff

In this

Hold onto your small towel

At this point you're completely naked

And you would.. take a shower

Right here

On one of those buckets

Shampoo..body wash

Right over there

Keep this towel with you at all times

Put it on your head

And soak in one of the nice bathes

Okay guys i'm going to be very honest with you

The first time you do it

You fill so shy

More if you're a woman

You feel like you don't want anyone to look at you

But.. after you do it once

You feel so comfortable the next one

So just do it

Just enjoy yourself..

And don't think about anything

But your moment

It's interesting coming from the United States

Where I think being nude in public is considered a little bit more taboo

I agree with Adriana the first few times I went naked

Inside the bathes

But this is the third or fourth onsen

We've visited so far

So for me.. I don't even notice it anymore

One tip though

The baths are very hot

Some of them anyway

If you start to feel yourself getting a little bit dizzy

Just stand up

Get some air

Walk around

And jump between the different pools

It's worth it trust me

Kinosakionsen Ropeway

The hotel owner Tomo told us that we have to check out

The Kinosakionsen ropeway

Which is like a skytram

To a great overlook

And that's all I pretty much know

So let's find out what the heck this is

There's a geisha on the stairs

900 yen for a round-trip ticket..top to bottom

The view from the top is absolutely incredible

You can even see the ocean

From all the way up here

The Sea of Japan

Now it's my favorite time.. dinner

Heading back to the Ryokan for Dinner Service

Now the moment we've been waiting for

We are going to have

Our dinner

In the Ryokan

And this is a big tradition

Of staying at a Ryokan. Having food served in your room

And I've got a really really good feeling about this meal

They're preparing our first course

And this whole process could take

An hour and a half to two hours

They're just going to keep bringing us food

Basically

I'm ready guys

This is pretty much

Their are two Kaiseki courses in Japanese

Traditional Kaiseki courses

But this is one of..

Favorite for. a group of people

Their are mainly 9 dishes

Combo

Trying the raw fish

You never eat sushi

Trying the sayori

The local fish

This is.. all raw

This must have been caught like yesterday

Very fresh

Very impressed so far

With the fish offerings

We have right here

But we didn't eat to much today

We were preparing ourselves

For a very big dinner

The main course arrived.. Tajima Beef

People like to..put everything

Into the hot pot

It's fine

But I recommend you to

Start with only meat

How to cook Tajima Beef on a hot pot?

And then swish. swipe

A few times

Mmmm

Speechless

Speechless

We're cooking the Tajima Beef in our own hot pots here

And it cooks within..20-30 seconds

Fastest beef I've ever seen cooked

And Adriana loved it

Now i'm going to try it

Mmmm

That is so juicy

It's ridiculous

I can not believe it cooked so fast

It's the thin sliced beef

Juicy, delicious.. oh man

One of the best things I've had in Japan so far

For sure

Adriana and I were just having a debate before

What is your favorite Japanese food

And it was so hard to come up with a winner

But now.. if you ask me

I'm going to say

Tajima Beef

For sure

It's like if you put heaven

In your mouth

That's it

That's all I'll say

Amazing soup

And dessert !

As Adriana adjusts my Yukata

I have to say.. that was probably one of the most memorable meals of my life

If you just consider.. thank you

All of the little things that went into this meal

It was 4 or 5 courses

With dessert

Some of the best beef

I have ever tried

Before

And the fact that

We are wearing traditional

Japanese clothing

Sitting in a Ryokan

It's.. really kind of surreal

It's an experience you definitley have to have

I want to show you all

One more thing

Before we end this vlog

What the sleeping arrangement is like

Twin futons

Pretty comfortable

Very romantic

Members of the Barrio

I hope you enjoyed the Ryokan experience

From start to finish

Hollywood movies VS Japanese movies! Who wins? - Duration: 8:12.

I only think that that must take so much money.

That person will be killed next.

The Final Jet coaster series.

Hey guys it's Cathy Cat. Many of us love and watch Hollywood movies.

Same in Japan. This time we are gonna go and ask Japanese people

about Hollywood movies. Specifically which things are different

compared to Japanese movies and what kind of surprises them.

TV TROPES!

And TV tropes that they see a lot so let's go and Ask Japanese.

There are so many heroes. - For example?

Something MAN and such like Spiderman are common.

There is so much impact.

What type of impact?

Everything is very grand.

Japanese movies don't seem to use as much CGI and such.

Yeah not really. At least not as much.

They seem to spend a lot of money on them.

In the horror genre I know some tropes.

In Japanese horror movies, they make the audience jump somehow.

But abroad there seems to be more gore.

It comes across as very realistic.

You really feel like you enter that movie.

In Japanese movies, you already know when the next jump scare comes.

I enjoy movies from America more.

Are there some common Hollywood horror scenes?

The killing ones. There are lots of members, and you guess who gets killed next.

You think about it.

And then the person you picked will get killed.

You understand quickly how many of them will get killed.

I watch a lot of horror movies, maybe that's why I can tell.

Suddenly that one person gets featured more than the others...

Ah, that might be the next target...

Even though it's not a main protagonist, that person's story will unfold...

And that's how you know... That person will get killed next!

The end of that person's story is in sight.

I see that a lot.

What differences does Hollywood have to Japanese movies?

Hollywood seems to spend more money on their movies.

They seem to have more to spend.

The CG and such is so advanced too.

In Japan you don't spend much on movies?

Not that much.

We spend more money on getting famous actors.

We spend money on the celebrities...

but not so much on the other things.

Splatter movies! - You like those? - Yes!

What do you watch a lot?

I like the Final Destination Jetcoaster one.

The way they die is so grotesque.

I love it. - That's very bloody.

YEAH!

Are there movies that are just as bloody in Japan?

No no! In Japan they are scary but not bloody.

Japan is like UWA UWA. America is like GUEEEH

It's very gross.

In Japan, your mental state gets more affected.

American movies go splatter splatter.

Romance movies are very dramatic, compared to Japanese romance movies.

The romance development in Japan goes slower.

In Hollywood they really create a good mood.

It's more romantic.

Japanese people don't really have that concept.

Japanese movies are not very romantic?

Not really.

I don't feel romantically moved watching them.

In US movies they hug or kiss and become friends again, right?

In Japan it's not like that. - True.

So with a hug or a kiss, everything is solved? - Yes.

You don't have that in Japan? - No.

We don't hug. We don't.

There are so many explosions in American movies - True.

Do you have some in Japanese movies? - A little. Not much.

Action explosions are very Hollywood.

Yes I see a lot of them.

They have an impact. I like them a lot.

I like comedy movies.

They are so funny.

Are there a lot? - Yeah I think so.

Comparing Japanese and foreign comedy, what's different?

Abroad there isn't a Japanese "Owarai" culure, right?

But instead there is more movement and action.

They make you laugh in other ways instead.

There are so many Hollywood romance movies.

Maybe that's just my opinion.

What scenario do you see a lot in Hollywood romance movies?

Romance abroad seems to go so much deeper.

Those movies seem to express

how much one person loves and focusses on another person.

That's the image I have of American movies.

What's different to Japanese romance movies?

Abroad they don't seem like they would cheat on their partner as much as here.

I have the image that Americans cheat less.

Than in Japan?

In America there seems to be less cheating.

What do you see a lot in foreign movies?

Can I say that in English too?

In America there is a lot of...

the way they perceive romance is really different than in Japan.

I think.

You live in Japan? - I am just visiting here.

But your family... you said you have Japanese heritage?

I grew up in a Japanese household in America but...

my Japanese is still not there, quite.

You're the perfect person to compare American Culture and Japanese culture.

If you compare Japanese and American movies, is there anything else you see a lot?

The way they have relationships between the people.

I mean familiar relationships as well as personal relationships

between romance and how you treat your parents and your boyfriend.

It's really different.

So more the family aspect comes into it in Japanese movies? - Yeah.

Also just public display of affection is very different between America

and Japan I think.

And that's perceived a lot in movies too.

Lots of holding hands and kissing and touching?

You don't see that a lot in Japan but in America they

are much more bold about it, I guess. It's much more common.

Yes thank you very much

Okay!

So, Hollywood tropes compared to Japanese movie tropes.

What I find especially in the horror genre...

Hollywood movies there seems to be the setting that it's 10 people...

that start out and then one after another.... in splatter movies keeps dying

And one survives or maybe not survives, you are not quite sure if they survive.

There is lots of blood and splatter and you see gory ways of how they are dying.

While I find in Japanese horror movies...

there might only be one person dying, but OMG you are scared for the whole movie

... and then you are scared for a week after watching that movie.

That happened to me when I watched The Ring.

I was so so scared and in the end, not that many people die but OMG

I was so scared.

Ever since then I can't watch any horror movies anymore...

Just not possible.

Pres. Moon shares outcome of inter-Korean summit with leaders of U.S., Japan - Duration: 3:21.

South Korean President Moon Jae-in has been quick to share the outcome of inter-Korean

summit.

He talked with U.S. President Donald Trump last night and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo

Abe this morning.

Our Oh Jung-hee is on the line for us with more.

Jung-hee, fill us in.

Good afternoon, Devin.

South Korea's presidential office confirmed this morning that President Moon Jae-in spoke

with President Trump last night... for 1 hour and 15 minutes.

President Trump first congratulated President Moon on the successful inter-Korean summit...

and said it represents significant progress in Seoul-Pyongyang relations.

President Moon replied that it was all possible thanks to President Trump's strong support...

and that the inter-Korean summit lays the groundwork for success in President Trump's

own summit with the North Korean leader.

"President Trump said it's very good news for not only the two Koreas but for the whole

world that they reaffirmed the goal of achieving a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula through complete

denuclearization.

The leaders reaffirmed that their governments will continue to coordinate closely to achieve

the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula."

President Trump said he's on the same page with Seoul and Pyongyang... on their agreement

to end the Korean War.

He added he's very much looking forward to meeting with the North Korean leader... and

if President Moon gives him a call, he will make it his utmost priority.

It's been phone call after phone call from South Korea to other countries to let them

know what happened in the summit.

What about the call with Prime Minister Abe?

You're right, President Moon Jae-in and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe talked on the phone

for 45 minutes this morning.

Here's what Prime Minister Abe said:

"Prime Minister Abe praised the fact that the leaders of South and North Korea reaffirmed

the goal of complete denuclearization on the Korean Peninsula through the Panmunjom Declaration.

He said that North Korea's moves are especially forward-looking and hopes the declaration

leads to specific actions."

President Moon and Prime Minister Abe saw that the inter-Korean summit set the foundation

for a successful U.S.-North Korea summit... and that the specifics of the denuclearization

process could be designed there.

The Japanese leader said Tokyo is willing to talk with Pyongyang to normalize relations

with the North and settle the affairs of the past,... and President Moon told Abe that

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un feels the same.

Prime Minister Abe said he will work for an opportunity to talk with North Korea and will

ask for South Korea's help if necessary, and Moon replied he'd be happy to provide that.

Prime Minister Abe also said he appreciated Seoul sending national intelligence agency

chief Suh Hoon over to Japan to explain the outcome of inter-Korean summits.

Suh met with Abe at his office in Tokyo on Sunday after the leaders' phone conversation...

to explain the outcome of the summit and future plans.

He delivered President Moon's hope for close coordination with Japan... and agreed with

Abe... that denuclearization has to be achieved in a peaceful manner.

Back to you, Devin.
