In this episode, I explore the paradox of how vulgar, shallow, and chaotic elements of Japanese pop culture—often dismissed domestically—gain traction and admiration overseas. Why are cheap variety shows, flashy advertisements, or bizarre cityscapes embraced in a world shaped by Western harmony and rationalism? I reflect on the decline of Western modernity, the exhaustion of reason, and the search for meaning in disorder. Perhaps beauty is no longer found in symmetry, but in chaos. Through cultural contrast and personal insight, I invite you to rethink what “beauty” and “value” mean in our age.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------●ビジネス日本語学習者のための無料メルマガ講座⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://my162p.com/p/r/odSmegng⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
