(sorry, this is not rude question, I jus serioulsy don't understand why this is)
I took a japanese class (because my japanese/korean parents wanted me to), and I noticed that all the american classmates wanted to move to japan "when they got older", wanted to live there, work there, wear kimono/yukata, give up english language for japanese one, and be their religion...??? They loved anything to do with japan, including cartoon books, the last samurai (I hate that movie, but they all insisted it was the best movie ever, aside from memoirs of a geisha), listened to j-pop & j-rock, tryed to dress "japanese street" style or "gothic-lolita harajuku" style.
I started to notice ALOT of people in my high school acted like this... I'm not in school right now, but I know they still are like this, why is that?
don't get me wrong, all cultures and peoples are unique and interesting, but I never see this kind of thing done about china, south korean, veitnam, thailand, india, etc.
