The earthquake and tsunami that struck Indonesia Friday, reportedly took more than 800 lives,

with the death toll to expected to rise.

Over in Japan, the powerful Typhoon Trami swept the country, killing 2 people and inuring

at least 120 others.

KIM Da-mi updates us on the situations.

Indonesia's disaster agency says the latest death toll from Friday's earthquake and tsunami

stands at 832.

But with many still unaccounted for, Singapore's The Straits Times has reported that the final

death toll will surpass 1,200.

Most of the confirmed deaths were from the city of Palu on Sulawesi Island, but officials

are bracing for the numbers to rise as connections with outlying areas are restored.

Rescuers are continuing to dig through debris with their bare hands in Palu, which was hit

by waves as high as six meters following the 7.5 magnitude earthquake on Friday.

The Red Cross estimates that more than 1.6 million people have been affected by the earthquake

and tsunami.

Further damage is also expected as smaller aftershocks hit the island.

Meanwhile, in Japan, a powerful typhoon swept through the western city of Osaka on Sunday.

Two people have been confirmed dead with two missing and at least 120 injured.

According to Japan's NHK, the storm's maximum wind speed of 216 kilometres per hour is the

strongest since 1991 when wind speed was first measured.

The storm comes less than a month after Typhoon Jebi, the most powerful storm to hit the country

in 25 years, left more than eleven dead in early September.

Typhoon Trami has caused widespread disruption, including flight cancellations and power outages

in more than 750,000 homes.

After crossing the main island of Honshu on Monday, the typhoon is expected to dissipate

on Tuesday morning.

South Korea remains opposed to hoisting of Japan's wartime Rising Sun Flag during naval event - Duration: 0:41.

The South Korean Navy will continue to discuss with Japan over the flying of a controversial

imperialistic flag on a Japanese vessel that's due to take part in an international naval

event in waters around Jeju Island this month.

Seoul's foreign ministry also says it has communicated with Tokyo over the issue.

It explained Japan needs to proactively consider the public sentiment Koreans have over the

Rising Sun Flag,... which is viewed as an emblem of Japan's wartime aggression and imperialism.

Seoul's request has so far been rejected by Japan,... based on the reasoning that ships

for the country's Maritime Self-Defense Force are required by law to fly the flag.

JAPONYA Neresi? BLM1/ Where is JAPAN? Episode1 - Duration: 8:27.

When I return to my home country,

this sight will be the first thing

that will come to my mind if I hear about Japan.

Train is coming.

Because, a lot of type of trains are

always on time,

coming and going

everywhere etc

And it's a very expensive transportation means.

And this announcement

will keep ringing in my ears.

Train to Chiba direction will soon arrive to second line.

Since it's dangerous, stay behind yellow line.

Originally, my plan was to make videos about daily life in Japan

but when I started going on trips around Japan I totally forgot about it.

I want to talk a little bit about Japan before about daily life.

Japan, aka land of the sun,

is an archipelago consisting of about

6850 islands which 4 of them are large.

at far east of north hemisphere.

Japan's capital city, Tokyo, is in Honshu which is the largest island.

It can be said that Tokyo is right in the middle of Japan.

The second largest island, Hokkaido,

joined the map of Japan later than others.

with its samurais,

hot springs, temples,

sumo wrestling, sakura period,

sushi, mangas and animes and colorful festivals

Japan is a very appealing country to many people around the world

98% of Japan's population is ethnic Japanese.

In the past the country had spent centuries in isolation from the world

apart from a few exceptions.

So neither they went out of Japan

nor they accepted anything from outside Japan

It can be said that it is still important to be pure Japanese

even in today's society.

Maybe because of this isolationest system,

Japanese people think some common things

in Japan are unique or very rare.

For example, 4 seasons in a year.

Actually, we can even say there are 5 seasons in Japan.

Autumn, winter, spring, rainy season and summer.

Total land area is 378.000 km²

and population is about 127 million.

It means half of Turkey's land area

and 1.5 times more population than Turkey's.

According to the constitution, emperor is the symbol of nation and government's union.

Emperor's authority is pretty limitted and Country is governted by prime minister.

Prime minister is Shinzo Abe since 2012.

Japan is the 3th biggest economy in the world

with its 4 trillion dollars of national income.

You can clearly observe the strong hierarchical society life when you live in here.

Social and business relationships are formed hierarchically.

The rules are not violated and everyone fulfills the requirements of their status.

Personally, I think this economic power is a result of

living their lifes with a feeling of responsibility.

Of course, this system that everbody yearns for also has some negative effects to individuality.

We will talk about these afeects later on an another video

Direct flights from Turkey to Japan takes approximately 11 hours.

on that flight, you notice for the first time how far actually far east is.

Turkish Airlines has 2 direct flights everyday.

There are some options for flights with transfers.

Usually, best price options are on Skyscanner website.

Flights with transfers are better for your budget

but they might take 2-3 times longer than direct.

So be careful about flight duration when you search for a ticket.

Japan does not require tourist visa from Turkish citizens.

Visa is given on airport gates untill 3 month long at most

For longer stays, a visa is required.

Probably, due to the long distance between countries,

Turkey and Japan has always had good political relationships.

The Turkish like the Japanese and the Japanese also like the Turkish.

Of course, there are some occasions that happened in the past which caused these good relations.

There is even a movie about these occasions.

The movie is Ertugrul 1890 in Turkish, Kainan 1890 in Japanese

directed by Mitsutoshi Tanaka.

The movie Turkish-Japanese co-production.

In 1890, Ertugrul frigate sunk at Kushimoto,

about 400km southwest of Tokyo.

In the aftermath, Japanese villagers rescued Turkish survivors and tended them

And the Turkish, in 1985, conducted a rescue operation

for Japanese people who were stranded in Tahran during Iran-Iraq war.

These are the 2 main reasons that created this mutual liking .

I had a chance to visit Kushimoto in 2017.

Since it is a bit far not everybody has a chance to visit.

There is a Turkish museum which displays some weapons,

uniforms from the wreckage and some informations from the era.

There is an Ertugrul monument and Atatürk statue around the museum.

Thanks for watching.

Japan Sakura Itinerary 2018! - Duration: 12:39.

Welcome to our chase for Sakura in Japan in 2018

This is our first stop at the Shinjuku Gyoen

This place is really huge we took about one and a half hour to really immerse ourselves in this Sakura season

Seriously everywhere you go. It's like in a drama. I can't express how much I love this place!

This is our next stop and this is a really pretty place as well

and these are the petals that we have collected~

Then it's night time and we're in Osaka. So he's actually bringing me to a restaurant which sells very nice steak

Unfortunately, we didn't get to eat it because it's a level two

But we went to level one... :(

And this is the highlight in Osaka the Glico man

Can you make that face?

Where do you wanna go?

DonDon Donkiiiiiii

Guess where we are heading~

Round One! I love this arcade!

Tada! To Sakura chasing again

The sakura trees are actually planted along the pathway when you walk

it's a really good experience I urge you to try it

And of course to Osaka castle

Welcome to, Nara!

I guess the deers are really full from all the food

They wouldn't want to eat food that actually has been dropped on the ground before as well

And hence we have the leftovers

After crossing this zebra crossing

We realized that deers on this end are actually hungrier

so you can actually have a higher chance of success to feed them

So the deers are actually said to bow back if you actually bow to them

and this boy failed

And he tries again

and he succeeded!

Our next stop is in Kyoto

And we are purifying ourselves with the water in the shrine, there are a few steps to follow and you go something like this

Nearby the shrine there's actually a Sakura Park

where you can actually sit down and have a picnic under the cherry blossoms

Be sure to also go visit the kichi kichi omurice the chef is really funny

Oh, this is where people write down their wishes and hang them up

Think we took about two hours to actually reach the top and this is how it looks like

In Kyoto, it is also common to see people in kimonos. There are a few rental shops for it

"If you jump down right, and you don't die - you can make a wish"

So this shrine is actually dedicated to the God of love and matchmaking

it is said that if one actually

Closes your eyes and reach to the other end of the stone. You can find your true love

However, if you actually need someone to guide you along to find a stone

It just means that you will need help from someone to find your true love

This is where you can donate 200 yen and pick a ticket that will predict your love life

These are some of the trinkets or souvenirs that you can buy back

In the evening, we went to our Arashiyama the sunset is really beautiful

Yep, that's a dead mosquito

And the next place we went to miss Haqqani you

Spot Mount Fuji

This is hakone shrine you can ring the bell and make a wish

And we are going to go on a ropeway to go to the peak of a mountain

The wind is crazy strong there

As you can see is actually quite barren there's nothing much yet to pay

There's only a torii gate as well as a temple that's sitting on the top of the mountain

And here comes the favorite part of my trip to Disneyland~

In my opinion Disneyland is more for kids, although some of the rides can be quite exacting as well.

I particularly like this Cinderella exhibit it's really so magical that the items are showing up one by one

And of course the next day we went to Disney see where it's more suitable for adult

The rides are more thrilling and exciting and this parade that you are seeing right now is actually for Easter Day celebration

Duffy bear and gang! When in Disney sea, please get their merchandise.

They are so cute and only exclusive to this disney sea

a pity due to weather conditions the night shows are cancelled

and this marks the end of our trip, bye!

7-Day Trip from Tokyo to Kyoto: Episode 2 | Japan's New Golden Route | japan-guide.com - Duration: 6:54.

Previously on Episode One.

In this three part series we are taking a seven day six night trip from Tokyo to Kyoto,

but not by the usual route along the Pacific coast known as the "Golden Route", which

most tourists take.

Instead we are traveling through Japan's "New Golden Route" which delves into the

country's rural interior, continues along the beautiful Sea of Japan coast, and finishes

at Kyoto.

A great way to travel along this New Golden Route is the Hokuriku Arch Pass, a 7-day pass

exclusively available to overseas tourists that allows for unlimited use of all the JR Lines

shown on this map, including the Hokuriku Shinkansen.

In episode one, which covered the first two days of our adventure, we made our way from

Tokyo to the Snow Monkeys in Nagano.

Now in Episode 2 we'll make our way along the Sea of Japan coast and end in the mountain

town of Takayama.

So join me, Sam Evans, as we travel from Tokyo to Kyoto along Japan's New Golden Route.

Day 3

We start the day traveling to Itoigawa City in Niigata Prefecture, where we'll enjoy

a scenic bike ride along the coast before having lunch at a local sushi shop.

We then head to Toyama Prefecture where we will take a train into the Kurobe Gorge, one

of Japan's deepest and most beautiful gorges, and end our day at Kuronagi Onsen.

After getting off the Hokuriku Shinkansen at Itoigawa Station, we backtrack a little

and take a local train to reach the town of Nou, where we head to the "Marine Dream"

roadside Station.

From there we'll enjoy a scenic 40 min bike ride along the coast, all the way to Sushi

Katsu, a sushi restaurant not far from Itoigawa Station.

It's the morning of Day 3 of our adventure and we are here in Nou in Niigata Prefecture.

Now what we're going to do this morning is hire a rental cycle and cycle a few kilometers

down that way into central Itoigawa.

It's a beautiful day, the birds are singing, so let's get on with this!

So we've got the rental bike, let's go!

We just arrived at Sushi Katsu, a traditional local sushi restaurant right by the coast

so you can bet the fish is going to be amazingly fresh.

Following our delicious sushi lunch we make our way by Hokuriku shinkansen and local train

to Unazuki Onsen.

There, we transfer to the Kurobe Gorge Railway to Kuronagi Station.

Our stop for the night is the remote riverside Kuronagi Ryokan located a picturesque 20 minute

hike from the station.

So we finished our wonderful riverside bath and we've sat down to our 3rd night's

meal.

And it's a traditional ryokan meal, which we've had now 3 nights in a row but notice

that they are all different, depending a lot on local specialties.

Day 4

After an enjoyable ryokan breakfast we head further up the gorge to Keyakidaira, the final

station of the Kurobe Gorge Railway, where we will take in some of the beautiful landscapes

before travelling all the way to Takayama, to enjoy some of the local cuisine.

We just arrived at Keyakidaira the final stop on the Kurobe Railway.

This place is famous for its natural beauty so let's go and explore.

It's now time to make a journey towards Takayama via the Hokuriku Shinkansen from

Kurobe-Unazuki Onsen to Toyama, and then take the Takayama line to Takayama, where we'll

head to the famous Old Town district to end our day with some local delicacies.

After starting out the day in the kurobe gorge we finally arrived in Takayama, which is famous

for its Old Town, and it's one of the most beautiful and well preserved in all of Japan.

When in Takayama there are 2 must try things: the delicacy of Hida Beef, and the local sake.

Tonight we're in a sake brewery's restaurant where I am going to enjoy both, ahead of our

big day tomorrow in which we are going to explore Takayama's old town before heading

on to Kanazawa.

Itadakimasu!

And that concludes Episode 2 of our journey.

Make sure to join us in Episode 3, as we explore more beautiful locations

and enjoy unique experiences

and finally make our way to Kyoto where our adventure will come to an end.

- [Rie] Bye.

- [Steven] I fought Yoshi.

(laughing)

(upbeat percussion music)

- (speaking in foreign language)

- For somebody who's never been

to a conveyor belt sushi before,

can you explain how it works?

- (speaking in foreign language)

- What are the advantages to having

the automated systems in the restaurant?

- (speaking in foreign language)

- Wow. - Whoa.

(laughing)

- [Steven] So excited, each of these plates is 100 yen.

- Approximately one US dollar.

Then we have self service green tea here.

- [Steven] Woo!

- [Andrew] Never seen someone so excited for hot water.

- Hot running water.

- Yeah at your table.

- Come on, sometimes my shower doesn't even do that.

- Kanpai.

- Kanpai.

- Hot!

This is the optimal time, it's like enough time

for you to look at it, decide if you want it,

but then it's like if you don't get it,

you're not gonna get it.

- It's like the Tinder of dining.

- Yes, swipe,

right. - Swipe right.

Alright, here we have two beautiful shrimp coming by,

come on Steven. - Okay,

maybe we should just go for it.

Pop it open, pop it.

- [Andrew] First hit, here we go.

- [Steven] Oh yeah.

- Here Steven,

- [Andrew and Steven] (speaking in foreign language)

- Perfect!

- Oh, now I'm excited, now I'm gonna grab,

hey how about some tuna.

- [Steven] Tuna!

- [Andrew] I love tuna.

- [Steven] Look at this long cut of tuna.

Cheers it up, that's so great!

- [Andrew] Yeah, we can have as many as we want,

they just keep coming.

- Ahh!

- Ever been in a lazy river?

- Yes, oh my God.

- This is the lazy river of food,

instead of you in the river,

the food is in the river, you just seize the river.

- [Rie] Sanma, it's a pike mackerel.

- [Steven] Mm, the fish was tender,

the rice was well packed, like satisfactory

in all of the ways that you want sushi to be, what is this?

- [Rie] If you get five plates.

- [Andrew] You get to play the game.

- [Andrew and Steven] Oh no!

- [Andrew] What happened?

- [Rie] You lost.

- [Andrew and Steven] Aww.

- So if we won, what would happen.

- You get the toy in a plastic ball.

- And then I want dessert, next.

Oh, fluffy ice with green tea red bean.

- [Andrew] Nice, the order was heard,

thank you. - Was heard.

(gasp)

- [Andrew] Oh here it is.

- [Steven] Cheers!

- Mm, that's what you need when it's hot outside.

- (whistled blow) Ice blast.

We're at eight plate count.

- [Andrew and Steven] Nine.

- [Andrew] I'll just do it.

- I touched it.

- Okay, we're at the baseball stadium,

I like it. - Come on.

Yeah, get home.

Oh, we won! - Did we really?

- [Rie] Yeah.

- [Andrew] No way, it's coming out.

(excited laughing)

Got some stickers.

- So I thank you for the meal.

(speaking in foreign language)

- [Andrew and Steven] (speaking in foreign language)

- That was wonderful.

- Fun and cheap.

- Yeah and very technologically advanced,

which I appreciate.

- So, we're headed to our next sushi spot,

but before we do that, we asked Rie for a suggestion

on any desserts that would look fish shaped.

- [Rie] We're here.

- [Steven] Here we are, here we are.

I love it, it's a beautiful stand.

- [Rie] Konnichiwa.

We are eating taiyaki, it's a fish shape pancake.

What do you want?

- [Steven] I want a red bean taiyaki.

- [Rie] Okay.

- [Steven] Andy wants matcha.

You can have the matcha one Andy.

Aw, it's so cute, I got the red bean.

- [Rie] It's a green tea.

- Alright, we're gonna try this taiyaki now.

I also have red bean.

- Alright.

- Look, fish, cheers.

- [Andrew and Rie] Cheers.

- [Group] Mm.

- [Steven] (speaking in foreign language)

In the 1980s, Norway had too much salmon.

And so there was a guy who was tasked

by the Norwegian government to sell some of it to Japan.

He was able to strike a deal with a company called Nishi Ren

and that catapulted salmon into the sushi market in Japan.

- We didn't have salmon sushi before that.

- That is a great international collab,

to bring a new all star food into prominence.

- [Rie] When you eat fish shape food,

do you eat from the head or but?

- [Steven] Head.

- [Rie] Head.

- Where we goin next Andrew?

- So next we're on our way to a place,

called Shun sushi, is that right?

- I'm here.

And it comes recommended by one

of our colleagues named Hitomi actually.

- Yep, my work wife.

- Your work wife?

- [Rie] Yeah so this restaurant is neighborhood sushi joint.

Somewhere you wanna go once in a while

when you are craving sushi, sushi chef knows you.

- Oh, that's what I want.

- Yeah.

- I want my sushi chef to know me.

How do you get a work wife?

- You have a work wife.

- [Steven] Who?

(laughing)

(upbeat piano music)

- (speaking in foreign language)

- I'm curious how long you've worked as a sushi chef.

- (speaking in foreign language)

- Today we're gonna be ordering the omakase set.

- Hai.

- What is the choice of fish

that you're gonna be serving us.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- Yes, absolutely. - Yes.

- So what do we have coming first Rie?

- [Andrew] Sake.

- [Group] Kanpai.

- Do we shot this, or, no we just, okay.

(laughing)

- [Andrew] Ooh, he's grating wasabi.

- You know what I love about sushi?

You're seeing everything that goes into

what your money is going to.

- [Rie] So this is chutoro.

- Here we go, first bite.

- [Andrew and Steven] (speaking in foreign language)

- Pure and utter joy.

- You know it's not like a piece of fish

on top of some rice.

It tastes like a single unit.

- Yeah.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- (speaking in foreign language)

- That was delicious.

- Mm, so happy.

- Very pleasant texture, it's also really interesting,

the temperature that it arrives.

Sushi, I don't think, is a cold food.

It becomes a part of your mouth instantly.

- (speaking in foreign language)

- The best temp, is body temp.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- It's unbelievably sweet.

- Yeah, it's kinda light.

- What did you do to the uni?

- (speaking in foreign language)

- It tastes like melon.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- Mm, the squid was, ex-squid-zit.

- In a word, it was, Squidward.

(laughing)

- What do you think is the special elements

about a sushi dinner like this, like us sitting here?

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- So is it mini shrimp?

- [Rie] Yeah.

- [Andrew and Steven] Wow!

- [Steven] All raw.

Mm, oh my God.

- [Rie] Saltwater eel called anago.

- Yeah, Annie's face just perked up,

it comes out and she's like.

- [Andrew] Wow, look at it.

- (speaking in foreign language)

- Hey yo, it was almost like biting into a crepe cake.

- Yes.

- I saved it for Annie, tamagoyaki.

We really appreciate it, thank you very much.

- Shun sushi.

- It ended too shun.

(sarcastic laughing)

- I love it, it was very comfortable.

Chef was very friendly, and I loved the conversation.

- I realize today, I want a sushi chef

like I want a hair stylist.

My hair stylist is the person I see

probably more regularly than everybody else in my life.

I want that for a sushi chef.

- Yeah.

- This is my sushi dance, I've decided.

- [Rie] What partied sushi.

- We're going to our final sushi spot,

a place called Kyubey, and from what I understand,

we need to get a little bit fancy.

Rie, what's goin on here?

- It's rimi shransta sushi, everyone knows Kyubey.

The chef from Shun knows, my dads know, it's very famous.

- Alright, let's go get that Kyubey.

- Oh, the reason we're dressed up is because

we're eating in a restaurant with a dress code.

I cannot believe that we got such

a prestigious sushi restaurant in Tokyo.

- Let's do it.

(upbeat orchestral music)

- (speaking in foreign language)

- Everybody we've talked to in Japan says Kyubey is amazing.

Why do you think Kyubey is so popular here?

- (speaking in foreign language)

- I mean, this has gotta be one of the,

I don't even know how to talk, let's just eat.

- One of the greatest opportunities we've had on this show.

- Yes, I'm a little nervous.

- (speaking in foreign language)

- [Andrew] Wow.

- Big inhale.

No, no, no, more, more, more.

Don't afraid, and this is a top tool to grind.

This is shark skin.

- Oh, wow. - Wow.

- Please touch it here.

- [Andrew] Real shark skin?

Arigatou, Gozaimasu.

- [Chef] Just one hand is okay, too polite.

(laughing)

- I'll be less polite.

(laughing)

- [Group] Kanpai.

- (speaking in foreign language)

- Mm, it's gonna be a good night.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- [Rie] So this is tai snapper.

- [Andrew] Why does he tap it with the knife?

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

Feel? - Yeah

- Here, no? - No, sorry.

- I'll make wasabi double than them.

- [Steven] You're not strong enough Andrew.

- I'm scared.

- [Chef] Don't feel?

- Mm, I feel it now, very good, yeah.

- (speaking in foreign language)

- [Andrew] Oh wow, there's green onion underneath them.

So excited.

- [Steven] What is this fish?

- [Chef] This is turbot.

- [Andrew] Oh, turbot?

- And touch top the sushi, this side, bottom and fish.

Softly, softly, and you have.

- It was really amazing.

- Yeah, the springiness of it.

- You try the next way to pick up with the finger.

- Okay. - Okay.

- Thumb and center finger.

- [Steven] Are you gonna eat that?

- [Rie] He keeps those live shrimp

in a same temperature as the sea water.

Slightly warm rice with cold shrimp.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- [Steven] Finger.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- [Rie] (speaking in foreign language)

So he's gonna give Annie a cooked shrimp.

- Already seasoned.

- Uuuuni.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- Are you kidding me? - Are you kidding me?

- [Andrew] Your father invented this style?

- [Chef] Yes.

- They make this in Ohio.

- Please go while the seaweed is dry,

I want to hear the crispy noise of seaweed.

- That is incredible tasting.

- That was everything, cold, uni, the wasabi burn,

the warm rice, the crunchy seaweed, everything.

- I would have thought that,

that was like hundreds of years old.

- That style called Gunkan-maki, Gunkan is a battleship.

- Oh, Gunkan-maki.

- I love that.

- Battleships.

- Cause they kinda look like battleships.

- That's my favorite.

- We should get some more sake.

- No, would you like some Adam?

Adam's a sucker for good glasses.

Adam took a sip of the sake and said,

I just realized how all sake

was supposed to taste for the first time.

- Yeah.

- [Chef] Head of shrimp.

- [Rie] I think he wanna utilize all the ingredients,

the real head to tail.

(laughing)

- It's like a little shrimp chip.

- [Rie] (speaking in foreign language)

- Mm, wow, wow. - Oh, oh, mm.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- [Steven] It's so beautiful.

- Oh wow, that was really new tasting for me,

because I've had a lot of sardines before

but never like this baby taste.

- Yeah I was expecting more of a fishier taste.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- [Andrew and Steven] Mm.

- Wow, it's so custardy, it's like flan.

- Wow.

- And then Adam died.

- [Chef] (speaking in foreign language)

- [Group] Aw.

- [Rie] What a hospitality.

- Usually when I put on my suit

I have to go somewhere I'm thinking

what is this night gonna bring me but havin a great.

(gasping)

(laughing)

- [Rie] Abalone.

- Wow.

- Havin a great time.

Feel like I'm hangin out

in somebody's basement just playing video games.

- I feel like I've stepped in something I can never go back.

- The thing that was, every piece had

its own kick about it, or it's own character.

- It's own personality.

- Yeah.

- (speaking in foreign language)

- [Rie] This is it.

- Have a question?

- I do, I have one question?

Why is sushi so great?

- (speaking in foreign language)

- Well thank you very much. - Thank you so much.

- (speaking in foreign language)

- We are glad you enjoyed.

- [Andrew] It was so good.

- Thank you very much.

- I'll never forget it.

- Guys I wanna say, ya'll look snazzy today.

Adam especially.

- You don't look too bad yourself there.

- Thank you very much.

Doesn't change the fact that we have to do our jobs.

And our job today is which sushi restaurant

was the most worth it to you at its price?

- I truly loved every place we went to,

although at first glance a lot

of the preparations might look the same,

you really got a completely different thing

at every restaurant.

And I think each would be worth

going to at their price point.

For me, if I came back to Tokyo,

I would go to Kyubey, I think it's that good,

it would be worth the price every time.

- Rie?

- I liked this episode a lot,

sushi's something special in Japan

and you can enjoy different level.

My Worth It winner is Kyubey.

- [Steven] Oh, I knew it.

It's also not too expensive.

- You can spend a lot more at a restaurant.

- I wanted Shun to be my winner

because it was like my barber of sushi.

But I do also have to go Kyubey.

He paid attention to every detail, Annie?

- Kura sushi.

- Wow, Adam?

- [Adam] I liked Kyubey.

- [Steven] Kyubey,

Kyubey. - Wow.

- That's it for sushi, quick shout out to Daiki,

all this way from Taisai, Japan,

who helped us get into Kyubey.

We're still in Japan, we got one more episode here.

- It's Rie's favorite food.

And we're visiting a special old friend

next week on Worth It.

- [Andrew] He noticed you were left handed right away.

Have you ever felt so noticed?

- [Steven] No, I didn't feel noticed

when I went into seventh grade

and all the chairs were built for right handed people.

So, he's better than chair manufacturers, that's for sure.

- [Steven] Oh, yes!

Japanese who moved to North Korea on promise of 'better life' sue over lies - Daily News - Duration: 2:52.

 A group of people who moved to North Korea after being promised a better life are set for a court showdown with Kim Jong-un's government, saying they were lied to

 And the secretive state faces calls to allow Japanese citizens lured there between 1959 and 1984 to leave

 During this time more than 90,000 migrated to North Korea because of the 'Paradise on Earth' campaign, which painted the country as an idyllic and prosperous place to live

 Five victims are now suing the country for damages.  Hiroko Saito, who travelled with her husband and one-year-old daughter, told the Washington Post: "We had been told this was paradise, but this clearly wasn't the case

 "Everyone started crying: 'Get me away from here. Get me back home.'"  Their claim is supported by campaign group Human Rights Watch, which has called for people still living in Kim's North Korea to be allowed to return to Japan

 The organisation's Japan director, Kanae Doi, said: "The Paradise on Earth victims believed the propaganda, but what they encountered in North Korea was hell, not paradise

"  Human Rights Watch has demanded that Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe confronts Kim and helps ensure people still in North Korea are allowed to return

Read More Inside North Korea  Ms Doi said: "The Japanese government should face its role in facilitating this historical wrong, recognize that the victims are still suffering, and set the situation right by supporting these victims' demands

"  People who made the move from Japan to North Korea were told that housing, food and clothes would be fully guaranteed

 Both the Japanese and North Korean governments supported the operation, although they are now accused of luring ethnic Koreans using false premises

 They claim that North Korea solely wanted to meet its own labour shortages.

Japanese politician kicked out of meeting for sucking cough drops - Duration: 4:03.

 The Japanese politician who was censured for bringing her baby to work has been kicked out of another local government meeting – this time for sucking cough sweets

 Yuka Ogata, 43, attracted global headlines when she was ordered to leave Kumamoto Municipal Assembly in southern Japan last year after bringing her seven-month-old baby to work

 Ms Ogata had hoped the move would highlight the challenges facing working mothers in Japan but ended up having to leave on the spot before receiving an official warning from her mainly-male colleagues

 And it seems Ms Ogata has incurred the wrath of her fellow politicians once again: she was reportedly ejected from the same assembly last Friday after speaking at the podium with a cough drop in her mouth

 Her seemingly innocuous action triggered an eight-hour suspension of the assembly as the issue was extensively debated, according to Kyodo News agency

 While there is no official policy on eating and drinking inside the assembly (the equivalent of a local council), some members reportedly argued that she had violated a clause protecting its integrity by sucking a cough drop

 Among her critics was Kazufumi Onishi, the mayor of Kumamoto, who was quoted in local media as saying: "It's unacceptable for a responsible adult to ask questions with (cough) drops in their mouth

She needs to admit her fault."  Defending her actions, however, Ms Ogata said: "I have not been well for the past several days and decided to take cough drops so that I would not trouble others with my coughing

It's regrettable that I've been forced to leave the room without being given the opportunity to explain myself

"  The debacle not only highlights the pros and cons of cough sweets in a working environment – but also casts a sharp spotlight on a society which is strictly bound by seemingly inflexible etiquette, rules and hierarchy

 For Ms Ogata, the cough drop debate is the latest in of a string of high-profile challenges the mother-of-two has faced since being elected to the assembly in April 2015

 In addition to being asked to leave after bringing her baby to work last November, Ms Ogata's earlier official requests for permission to breastfeed him in chamber and for daycare assistance for assembly staff were all reportedly turned down

 Japan famously lags far behind other industrialised nations in terms of gender equality in the workplace, despite the prime minister Shinzo Abe's high profile push for "womenomics"

 Japanese politics in particular has long been renowned as a male dominated domain: women accounted for only 9 per cent of lower house members last year, putting Japan in 165th place among 193 countries, according to the Geneva-based Inter-Parliamentary Union
