Why do many people say that you should never drink with Japanese when traveling to Japan?

The first time I had a drink with the Japanese, it was a guy named Lin, probably less than 160CM, in his fifties. He usually wears a very mild suit and bright shoes. When he goes up for a drink at night, he will put on a POLO shirt, put it into the belt of a suit and tie it with a delicate belt. When he drinks too much, he will be exposed. He likes others to respect him and drinks when he respects him.

Guy Konoha is about 40 years old, and his nature is color, especially after drinking, so he thinks that all men are like him, telling a lot of "jokes" when drinking, talking about countries, including Africa, then gesticulating with their hands, staring at the kebabs in izakaya in a daze, straightening up, staying straight for a while, coming to my senses, then continuing to describe, gesticulating, and then singing.

Another time, I didn't know him. A guy in a white shirt came in with a beautiful leather briefcase, opened the warm curtains and sat at our table. The Japanese bow, hey, hey, hey, is a habit and a reflection. He thanked his boss for a long time. He also greeted us, bowed in his seat, and we greeted him. The shopkeeper served two side dishes. He ordered a "flower and hair in one", drank a glass of beer and then drank wine. After this cup, he smiled and turned to ask us, where did the guests come from? When we said China, he smiled. Oh, oh, that, that, keeps laughing. We are all covered in hair! After another drink, he began to mumble and pointed at us again. Hey, hee hee, hey ... we can't understand the drunken Japanese, and we don't know what he mumbled. It's not a good thing anyway. A buddy went to sit next to him, put his arm around his neck and told him in English not to make any noise. We asked the buddy what he said, and he said it was a wine tiger. I'll ask him out so that we can talk alone for a while. After drinking the white shirt for a while, he began to cry and pointed at us again, gnome male-"... Hey, let's go.

It's normal for Japanese people to bow and nod when they don't drink. The Japanese will continue to be normal without drinking, and so will the Japanese who drink. This is not a special case. The above is a summary. This is probably the bar. Drinking too much is like melting the shell with wine. Hey hey hey. So, when you travel to Japan, you can have a drink with the Japanese.

Is it because the Japanese basically drink for nothing, and finally the whole bowl of broken Lamian Noodles goes to bed?

No matter where you travel, try not to drink with strangers, because you don't know the local drinking culture or the risks. Being drunk can easily cause unnecessary trouble. If you travel to Japan, you need to pay more attention. Don't drink with the locals!

With the improvement of living standards, people's life pressure also increases, and tourism is one of the ways for modern people to relax. Especially for some young people, traveling abroad is a good choice if the wallet allows.

China, facing the Sea of China, has traces of our history and culture, unique customs and charming local natural scenery, so more and more Japanese people travel to Japan (there are not many places to travel under the global epidemic in the past two years).

Before leaving for Japan, many friends will search some travel guides or ask their friends who have been there some questions that need attention. In addition to telling you the tourist route, most people's suggestions will emphasize that the Japanese pay great attention to etiquette and contact, especially if it is unnecessary, try not to drink with the Japanese, otherwise unexpected consequences will occur.

In most countries, wine is essential. Drinking can not only relax the body and mind, but also be a necessary means of interpersonal communication. In China, many orders are made by drinking. For friends who like to drink, they can't sleep without a drink or two every day.

The drinking culture of each country is different, and the drinking culture of different occasions is also different. For example, drinking between acquaintances is very different from drinking in business communication, and Japan also has its own unique drinking culture.

Beer is usually kept in Japanese families. They drink beer as a drink and eat with the Japanese. Beer is often served to guests before serving, but now people's ideas have changed. You can also have a non-alcoholic soda.

If an acquaintance drinks alcohol, it's actually similar to our country, so we don't need to pay too much attention to etiquette. Friends chat and brag while drinking according to their own preferences.

But if you are entertaining guests, there are many details to pay attention to when drinking. When Japanese people get together, they usually serve wine only when all the important people are here. This is the most basic respect between people, which is the case in many countries.

In terms of pouring wine, the Japanese are actually similar to our country. They don't just pour wine with themselves all the time, but pour wine in their hometown to enhance emotional communication.

In addition, Japanese etiquette reflects hierarchy everywhere, and drinking is no exception. For example, in more formal occasions, in order to show respect for each other, when pouring wine for others, the bottle packaging is generally facing each other, because the pattern on the front is more beautiful.

When choosing seats, we are also particular. We choose our seats completely according to seniority, and the elderly and distinguished people sit in their seats, just like us.

However, it should be noted that in Japan, drinking and saying "cheers" does not mean finishing the wine in the cup, but just touching the quilt. As for how much to drink, it is entirely up to you to decide according to your own flow. Of course, you need to pay attention to inferiority when clinking glasses. Young people's cups are lower than those of their elders.

In a word, Japan's drinking culture is similar to China's in many aspects, and it pays less attention to the things between friends, mainly to enhance feelings, while formal occasions pay attention to pecking order and give priority to guests.

Since Japanese wine culture is similar to our country, why do some people say not to drink with Japanese? I think there are several main reasons:

1, it is common sense not to drink with strangers.

When I say strangers here, I mean strangers I met in the street, not customers I met for the first time in business. In fact, whether Japanese or China people, it is common sense to have a basic sense of security when playing in foreign countries, and not to drink with strangers.

If you are traveling with a group, it is understandable for members to drink some wine properly, but if you are traveling to Japan alone, don't drink with strangers at will.

On the one hand, it is not clear about some social etiquette of local people, and it will be embarrassing to violate their taboos; On the other hand, you don't know if your friends who are drinking with you have any other bad intentions. Travel abroad, safety first!

2. Drinking with Japanese is likely to get drunk.

Since we are traveling to Japan, most of the places we visit are tourist areas, where there are some izakaya specially set up for tourists. Izakaya in Japan is equivalent to a buffet for drinking, and you can drink unlimited amount if you give money per head, while many guests in izakaya are drunk.

If you also want to experience the culture of izakaya, Japan, and drink with your new Japanese friends, you will probably get drunk, which is not only disrespectful, but even dangerous. Drunk people are bound to get drunk.

Being drunk in Japan is likely to face a fine.

Few Japanese dare to drink and drive, because the Japanese traffic police force imposes severe penalties on drunk driving. Even the lightest drunk driving may face criminal detention of less than three years and a fine of less than 500,000 yen.

Not only that, if you get drunk and throw up in the street, you are likely to face a fine, which is very unworthy.

Therefore, drinking with the Japanese, without knowing the depth of the other party's traffic, and accidentally getting drunk, is likely to violate some local laws and regulations and be punished.

In a word, when a person travels to Japan, he should always pay attention to his own safety, especially not to drink with local people easily. It's not that local people will have bad intentions, but they are worried that they will get into trouble after drinking, and some unexpected consequences will happen after getting drunk.

In fact, the view of "never drink with the Japanese" is biased. When people travel to other countries, it is common sense not to drink with strangers without knowing the local drinking culture.

If you are familiar with Japanese culture, know how to avoid risks, and have a good idea of your own traffic, then having a drink with the locals will not be an accident, and you may have a different experience!

If you travel to Japan, will you drink with the locals?

That's because the alcohol they drink is low and we are not used to it.

There are many taboos in traveling to Japan, one of which is never to drink with Japanese. If you accidentally drink wine with the Japanese, you may sometimes suffer heavy losses.

My friend works in a Sino-Japanese cooperative company and always has the opportunity to go to Japan for exchange and study every year. He said that what he feared most was drinking with the Japanese. Because the state of Japanese people after drinking is varied, some people sing loudly, some people dance, some people fall asleep in the street, and some people lose their manners and do things they shouldn't do. In short, you should be careful when drinking with the Japanese.

He told us about his drinking experience with the Japanese. Once he went to Japan to exchange and study. After he was busy, a group of people went to a Japanese pub to drink in the evening. In Japanese pubs, there are all kinds of wines, including beer, wine and shochu. Among these wines, shochu has the highest alcohol content.

They ate and drank at will that night. Some Japanese who went together ordered wine, some drank beer, and some mixed a variety of wines. Drinking with the Japanese is refreshing. They don't persuade wine, and they don't argue for wine. When you drink, you will also clink glasses and shout "cheers". However, the so-called cheers, they will not finish the wine in one breath, a glass of wine often has to be drunk several times.

At that time, friends thought that people should not get drunk when drinking beer and wine, but it didn't take long for some Japanese people to speak vaguely. An hour later, he saw the manager of the Japanese company next to him, who was yelling just now, but unexpectedly slipped under the table. Everyone present was in a hurry. Help him up.

Subsequently, it seems that several Japanese people present were drugged, one fell with the other, and some wandered to the bathroom and never returned to the table. Finally, everyone carried him from the bathroom to the hotel. At that time, my friend was very surprised. He thought he hadn't had a few drinks. Why do those Japanese get drunk easily?

Later, a friend told him that the Japanese really can't drink, and their alcohol consumption is very small. If they drink three glasses of Wuliangye from China, they will fall down, and so will yellow wine. After a few drinks, they will fall asleep. He said that these conditions are still very good. In Japanese pubs, you can often see the ugly behavior of drunken men.

So our friends told us that in Japan, it is best not to drink with the Japanese at will, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble.

There are several reasons why you can't drink with the Japanese:

Japanese people are famous for drinking. Almost every adult man will go out for a walk, relax and have a drink after work every day. In Japan, there are some places that specialize in drinking, called pubs. These pubs are all over the streets of Japan. Every night, the restaurant is brightly lit and crowded.

There are many kinds of wine in the wine room, and so are all kinds of people who come here to drink. Everyone has a high enthusiasm for drinking, and the variety of wine they drink is also very casual. The last glass is beer, and the next glass may be wine. Japanese people don't pay attention to varieties, but only to palatability, as long as they are refreshing.

However, anyone who can drink will know that drinking too many kinds of wine in one night is easy to get drunk. When drinking, they are very comfortable and have no feelings. When several kinds of wine are mixed together, people get drunk easily. If you travel in Japan, getting drunk will affect the next day's trip and be prone to accidents.

Japanese people can go to restaurants with three or five people, or they can go to restaurants alone. The consumption in the wine house is like the cafeteria in China, which is mainly self-service, with a charge of more than 2,500 yuan each time, which is expensive. So some Japanese men go to bars to drink, in order to earn back the cost, they will drink a lot regardless, and getting drunk is common.

If you go drinking with the Japanese, you can't drink less in that atmosphere, so if you are drunk, the other party is drunk, and they may get drunk in the street. If you are not drunk and your friend is drunk, then you are not only responsible for sending him home, but also suffering from his drunkenness.

Let's say 2500 yuan a night. If I drink for a few more nights, I guess my wallet will be empty.

Japan is a country that pays great attention to health, and its citizens are of high quality. When you get drunk in Japan, someone will help you go back, but the person who helps you is the police. Drunk people tend to vomit. If they can't help vomiting in the streets of Japan, they will feel very comfortable and distressed when they wake up, because vomiting in the streets of Japan is subject to a fine, which is not low, ranging from 1000 yen, and sometimes they may be detained.

If you are seven minutes drunk, take a taxi back to the hotel and sit in the car with the wind blowing, people will vomit easily, and it will be very troublesome to throw up in the Japanese car. Japanese driver master is unwilling to clean you for free. You need to find this cleaning fee yourself, about 10 thousand yen, which is more than 600 yuan when converted into RMB. If you throw up a few times, it will cost a lot of money.

If you drink with the Japanese, you will be surprised by their gaffes when they are drunk. Singing and dancing are trivial things, and it's hard for you to take a piss anywhere. It seems that a gentle man can directly solve the domestic demand in front of you, and the smell of the scene is enough to make you vomit.

Besides, they are drunk and like to touch around. If you are a woman, it is really not worth the loss. They will mess around after drinking. After all, this is a normal phenomenon in Japanese culture. They work under great pressure every day. They work during the day and go back to take care of their wives and children at night. They seldom go out to relax, and they can't always go home empty-handed.

If a girl meets this group of arrogant people, it is difficult to get away with it. Japanese men are drunk and their eyes will search around the scene. When their eyes fall on a woman, they will come to her, squeezing and wiping, with ulterior motives on their faces.

People who have been to Japan will find that it is normal and polite for Japanese people not to drink, and they will nod when they meet people. However, once they get drunk, they will accuse you of swearing, crying and laughing carelessly, and make your heart beat with fear. They are drunk, in a daze, drunk, so they don't pay the bill, and this consumption naturally falls on his companions.

If you get drunk in Japan, pass out in the street and meet a group of homeless people, safety becomes a problem. If you can't control defecation in the street, you can easily get a ticket.

If you lose consciousness after drinking too much, you will be sent to the hospital seriously. Then, the trip to Japan fell through. Therefore, in order to have a pleasant trip and get value for money, it is best not to get drunk when traveling to Japan.

Conclusion:

Every country has its own unique culture. As a country close to us, many people are willing to travel to Japan because its culture is similar. Then before you go out to travel, you'd better know about the cultural customs of that country, and you'd better not touch their taboos. Be careful when traveling abroad and drinking!
