(1)When I was stationed in Tokyo 30 years ago, it is customary to travel to and from Narita Airport dozens of times a year. At that time, going abroad was a special thing, so even if it was close to Japan, there was a vague awe and fear mixed together. So, there were many business travelers who went out and looked around, shouting that they didn’t have to come out when I called to meet them.
(2)There was always something that stood out to me while I waited for the travellers to come out of the formalities.It was the outfit. At that time, as I said before, I thought it was a long trip, so I wore colorful clothes for a traveler.He was definitely Korean. Japanese and foreigners usually wear comfortable casual clothes for travel.
(3)When my wife visited my home country for the first time in a long time, she took my children in gym clothes and was hit by her father-in-law who came to meet me at the airport. And I got a call from my father-in-law to dress up well. According to his wife, Japanese housewives, who usually dress so frugally, always wear luxurious clothes at parents’ meetings and graduation ceremonies like PTA.
In the 1990s, Koreans went to the airport to travel abroad.
I usually wore fancy clothes.(Laughs)
It was a time when I got in trouble if I wore comfortable clothes like a foreigner.lol
