First, a handwritten letter in Korean posted on the wall of a cafe in Japan is drawing attention.
Recently, a handwritten letter in Korean attached to the wall of a cafe in the small Japanese city of Matsuyama became a hot topic in an online community.
The cafe owner wrote in the letter, "Right after opening the shop, COVID-19 struck and I had many worries due to a lack of customers, but the very first people to visit after COVID-19 were Koreans."
The owner added that many Korean tourists have continued to visit the cafe ever since, expressing gratitude for the tremendous help and saying, "We have received so much help and are deeply grateful. We love the Korean people who visit us."
The cafe has now become quite well-known among the many tourists visiting Matsuyama. A netizen who shared that they visited in person introduced it as a small cafe run by a couple, noting that it gained a reputation by word of mouth for the owner's kindness.
Reactions followed such as, "Seeing that note would probably make the trip even more enjoyable," and "I want to visit again next time."
