    Furisode for a Million Yen?! Exploring the Traditions of Japan's Coming of Age Ceremony (Seijin-shiki)｜成人の日

    The English and Japanese Subtitles are available on my YouTube Channel. https://youtu.be/DeVnr8QogbE Delve into the heart of Japanese culture with our latest podcast episode on the Coming-of-Age Ceremony, or 'Seijin-shiki,' a significant and vibrant celebration held annually on the second Monday of January. This episode explores the profound meaning and rich traditions of this national holiday, a day that marks the transition of 20-year-olds into adulthood, a milestone in Japanese society. We discuss the recent change in Japan's legal adult age from 20 to 18 and how it impacts the traditional practices of the ceremony. Discover the elegance of the Furisode, a long-sleeved kimono worn by women, and the Hakama, traditional attire for men, delving into their cultural significance and why these garments are a symbol of this special day. We also take you through the ceremonial proceedings, from the heartfelt speeches by mayors and guests, sometimes including celebrities, to the societal roles and responsibilities bestowed upon new adults. Join us as we share personal stories of attending the ceremony, the significance of wearing family heirlooms like the Furisode, and the joy of reuniting with old friends at post-ceremony gatherings. The episode also reflects on the broader implications of becoming an adult in Japanese culture, including the legal rights to drink and smoke. We invite you to engage with us: Does your country have a similar rite of passage?
