I just love this interviewer. She doesn't judge, she's genuinely interested and she's got great energy which makes it fun to watch and I bet the people being interviewed feel comfortable with her
As a Japanese i should mention that it’s definitely not normal for Japanese parents to give up on their kids because they failed studying. or any reason. This guy’s case is very rare.
But idk if his parents “gave up” on him he said they basically told him he has to figure out how to live on his own since he doesn’t want to study and that’s reasonable I doubt they just straight up kicked him out I feel like he chose to live in the box for the time being to save his money to move to the city he strikes me as that type of guy I’m the same way I got into so much trouble in my youth and dropped out of high school early and my mom although she supported me told me since you don’t want to go to school you gotta learn to look after yourself and when I said I was going to move out I actually lived in my car for a while until I could afford an apartment for myself instead of trying to find a roommate or live in a hostel type of thing
The facade he puts up is praiseworthy. Just the right amount of emphaty, right amount of showing self awareness of the things he does to cloak the more shady side of his work, the right amount of charm. He has perfected the craft of setting himself up to show himself off. A one man show. This is novel worthy material lol.
damn i couldnt agree more. I'm good at socializing to a point, I love to talk to people, but if i ever get the feeling someone's using me for something I cannot save face. i could never be in this line of work, but im fascinated by anyone that can put up a facade this well
Crazy amount of charisma and very cunning. Heavy dose of boyish charms with a little bit of alcohol and it’s no wonder he’s got regulars who fawn over him.
I just watched the hostess, and now this. I've studied both of their demeanors and they are really good at socializing. I wish I had that kind of quality because I can't even ask for a ketchup at Mcdonalds.
I can't feel anything but sadness for this guy. He was abandonned by his parents at 16, became homeless and was lured into this creepy business so he could afford unnecessary luxury things by beeing pressured into taking advantage of lonely girls. These clubs owners are exploiting the misery of both the hosts and the customers out of pure inhumanity and greediness. What a sad world we live in, almost brings me to tears. I hope he'll find some peace later on in his life.
Looks like US is following with Twitch and all the simps who pay just to see the girls on a screen. It's even worst, it's like next level. OnlyFans and Patreon as well.
@@Mr.Eminem They offer a bit more than simply paying for prostitution. These girl can hire them for an entire night. The sex lasts at most 1 hour, the rest of the 5-6 hours are spent talking.
@@ayat5483 Prostitutes in Japan almost charges by the minute lol, you are done with them in an hour. If you want sex, it is far cheaper to hire a prostitute. Hostess are more expensive and most of the time doesn’t even engage in any physical activity with the client. What do you think they’re paying for?
@@MrZombs123 the difference between the rich and poor in japan is huge. i have a friend that is one of those rich kid, and he never used public transportation even when they are faster since his parent are scare and over protective. also i once accidentally saw his atm balance and my jaw drop he have 300k+ in his account, i understand why he have 2 bodyguard around him. he could buy a house with that dough, if only he is gay.
Honestly, Japan looks like a very sad country filled with lonely souls and suffering people. but to the outside world it looks amazing, happy, fun, and a great place filled with anime and manga cough* culture.
Wow someone who actually gets it. Japan is just miserable, people are not happy there at all. But to us outsiders you are right it looks fun and amazing, and while its fun to go to vacation there I heard from several people who moved there that they missed their home country because of the way Japan works over there. I would like a Japanese GF but not at the cost of living there.
Most japanese parents are like that sadly. Here in Latin America most parents will support their kids until they get a stable job to live on their own. I'm 24 and I'm studying in university, and even though I'm not living with them anymore, they still support me economically.
I agree no one should give up on their child and it lead him here .. he must have special skills to do so well in that line of work which I image is highly competitive. Hope he's saving for his future as this gig can't last forever.
When I first saw him, okay he's handsome but why he's number one. As I'm watching the interview I somehow I realized why. He has this kind of charm and humor that you can talk to him all day and never get bored.
sometimes Japanese taste in men really weird for me. I remember watching video abt no.1 host some years ago, he's worse than this boy with weird hairstyle too 😅 For me this boy is so so, since a lot of my friends also Japanese. This guys not that fun to talk, I start wondering why he's no.1 host 😐
People only see the bling but I see a very lonely kid. His story is quite sad... and his dream of 'owning stuff' and 'wearing nice clothes' is very telling. On the other hand, I admire his will to fight and his tenacity to never give up on life. If you looked pass the booze and the party, you'd see a struggling young man trying to find his place in this world. I wish him luck. EDIT: Some people have accused me of being a 'feminist' and that I'm jealous of this young man. I just want to say that I have not a single iota of jealousy. I had some rough times growing up myself but I never had to endure homelessness and fend for myself at the age of 16. This person really had it rough and I'm just stating my observations. I admire and feel sad for him at the same time. That's all.
@@user-qi9pi7lt3q Who doesn't have to sell themselves in this world to get what they want? You have to sell yourself when getting a job interview or kiss ass to your employer just to get promoted don't you?
Circe every coin has its two sides.. it is sad that a such a young boy was given up by his parents but fortunately or unfortunately he is living the life now.. but when all this good looks and age are there no more I hope he has some one next to him and hopefully some money as well😊
He's not the most handsome man in the world but he clearly has a sense of charisma (especially when you look at how the interviewer is reacting). There are probably better looking guys in these clubs but his not overly-intimidating boyish looks probably makes him more approachable
yes he is just ok looking but yeah your right women are drawn to charisma i.e swag, charm. and he seem fun to be with, having looks but no personality is boring.
@@jessicacannady1931 he is not ok looking, man i hate how foreigners thinks their perception of beauty extends to the eastern world. This guy is considered an 8/10 in Korea, Japan and China.
Non Japanese people first you need to understand Japan better besides what you might think or have seen. There is a huge dark side in Japan. This is one of them. This kid is not rich at all. It's like a rapper in the USA. They get advances by the label. Well, in this case the record label is the Yakuza. Yes, they are very active but it's not all what you think it is. Kabuki-cho is known for this type of industry. It is most likely that because Kunugi is a popular host that he can receive certain advances. What I also think is that his boss borrowed him that Lambo so that the company can be portrayed as bling bling in this video. The fact that Kunugi was disowned by his own parents makes him an easy target for the Yakuza and other crime orgs in Japan.
@@wobblegook no, it's because when he graduated school he tried to apply for a really easy college 3x and was still rejected, so his parents just gave up on him
It feels like Kpop/idol groups are strategically formulated/crafted to have this level of public charm in order to drain the wallets of fans. This is the same thing just on a smaller scale and more private setting.
I have some kind of weird strong urge to mess up his hair... anyway, I really like this interviewer. She always asks interesting questions in a non-pushy, respectful way, and her interviewees always seem comfortable with her. edit: I believe people have misunderstood. I meant that I don't like how neat his hair looks and want to "unfix" it. lol
@@vaiqdabom lol actually what I meant was that I don't really like his hair and think it would look better messier hahaha in Japan though, I believe it's considered a good hairstyle so I don't think Japanese women would share my sentiments lol (just a guess)
the way he was so comfortable talking about everything, from his failures, hardship to buying a luxury watch, explains pretty much why someone would spend money to be with him. i mean i am not japanese, and pretty much smitten by him.
@xXUsagiXx I've watched a documentary on the host business in Japan and yes it showed that a lot of their customers are female hostesses. They're depressed and lonely and fed up with the type of men they deal with as customers so they go to the hosts for their princely behavior. It's even sadder because the money they earn being a hostess is blown on trying to win the temporary attention of a host.
@xXUsagiXx Maybe the parents "support" that under special conditions. - Straight A's perfect behaviour. No one sees her with the host unless it's private restaurant chambers etc, gets "collected" by driver. - And no boyfriend until she has finished her studies stepping in her parents foot/business. / I do pity her. As well as the host who looks very sad.
A great deal of the host model of earning is based on prostitution. The hosts demand money from women, the women go out and earn money by selling their bodies directly or by being hostesses demanding money themselves. These top hosts are effectively pimps. They know that's what they are and don't care. Their wasteful purchases bought from the suffering of others. Some admire it. I think it's pathetic.
For those who understand a little bit of Japanese expressions/slangs, you can probably understand why he’s number one just by the way he speaks. I understand a little bit of Japanese and he’s literally making me laugh so much all throughout this interview. It’s so obvious how good he is with people and engaging them and the subtitles do not really do it justice.
@@xNekoFabux No trust me it’s definitely the subtitles he’s humour and personality is top tier. I don’t think it’s hard to translate japanese because the translation is pretty accurate but I guess it’s hard to translate expressions certain nuances in the language
I think it’s obvious why he is so popular and has a lot of customers, he has a kind vibe to him and despite the cash he has and does flash, he seems grounded, these people dropping the money on him clearly need that connection with a relatively normal person, even if it’s momentary.
I got that sense of him as well from watching this. Some people need that type of person like him 🙂 it's amazing that being honest, kind and himself made him to where he is now Also I love your youtube name 😁
Hobies K.A.R.D InfiredJams I sat and watched this video lol of a guy talking, surprisingly he does have something interesting about him, I saw it in the girl interviewing him
Those people, who's feelings and insecurities he exploits, clearly need him. More so that they go and sell themselves for money to pay for his attention and drinks.
He said "there are still many things I haven't done yet and things that I want to do in my life." It makes me wonder how he envisions his future. Being a host is like being an athlete, it has an "expiration date" or a "best by" date quicker than many other occupations. Whatever he decides to do next, I wish him all the best. Even though he calls himself "stupid," he's very emotionally intelligent and self-aware, so I know he'll find his path.
working in a construction yard has his exparation day but he made in one day what the construction guy made in a month. if he is a little bit smart he is saving a little bit on the side and when he expires he can enjoy a beach life
Most hosts end up making less money than an average person. There are just too many who end up wasting their money towards the end of their career with no job experience and cannot fix their over extravagant lifestyle.
Well for one, if everything else fails he can easily open up his own place. These top guys end up with so much psychological knowledge, that the charisma would never fade. It has to come from somewhere too. It's not an easy task to be a listener, and i would think most of these top dudes are good at that. Throwing compliments is just one thing in their line of work. If you're good all around it wouldn't be wrong to say he could easily be doing this up to his mid 30s.
Actually women dont mind age as much as men. Most men look for young girls even when they are at their 50's but women's preference usually get older with their age and they look for charisma. Its a proven fact. Which this guy has.
@@YuahLee It is like this: (Total summary at the end) 1. Gigolo - has only 1 lover or a "sugar mommy" who he is financially dependent on, sometimes they even live together. Host - Their job is to chat with women customers and they are not exclusive partners of their customers. 2. Gigolo - Since he a lover they would most probably sleep together and they are in a relationship Host - as mentioned by Kunugi-kun, a host can sleep with their customers if they are attracted to that customer, no strings attached. 3. Gigolo - depending on their lovers is one of their source of income Host - they are professional escorts who will chat with you and basically will their income from the drinks that the customers order while they are chatting with you Basically the gist of it: Gigolo - it is not their job to escort or accompany a girl, they are in a relationship with their lover, one of their source of income is their lover Host - it is their job to escort or accompany their customer, they are not in a relationship with their customers, one of their source of income is the sales of the drinks that their customers bought while they are chatting with them
stralbem in most Asian countries Host or hostess is just what they are called, they don’t really use gigolo , like in the Philippines hostess is the term they use 🙂
@Paul Baumann Lol. First of all, this kid knows fuckall about managing his wealth. Secondly, most luxury watches lose value. You're definitely watching too much TH-cam. There are maybe a handful of appreciating 6-figure watches in production. For example, you aren't aware that almost all watches covered in diamonds are worth less than the same unmolested watch. The exceptions are all factory diamond encrusted watches OR a famous piece.
i like this dude idk why he hopped out with a juice box and he’s just funny like he obviously didn’t have the best past but he can laugh at it and still know he really is that MAN with money lmao
Was really impressed with his maturity and no nonsense way of reasoning!! He belongs to a business and he knows how to make it lucrative but remains with his feet firmly on the ground genuine and very honest and down to earth I can totally understand how he has arrived at # 1!! I wish him all the best and hope he fulfills his dreams And then can retire..maybe with one of his customers
He has this sadness in his eyes and is good talker. It is combo womans like. They pity him cause he is sad and see it as challenge to make this sadness go Away
Legal age and consent ages vary around the world. Here is what I found: Japan statutory rape law is violated when an individual has consensual sexual contact with a person under age 13. ... The age of marriage is 16 for girls and 18 for boys. In 2018 Japan changed its legal adult age to 18 due to their crisis with low birth rates. Western standards really don't apply anywhere else, so no need to feel uncomfortable about it. I lived in the Philippines for several years back in the 90's, and their age of consent was 13 years old, and it was not unusual to see 14-15 year old girls working in bars as hostesses. Being considered a minor in the US is all encompassing.....not so in many places around the world, where they have different legal ages for different activities. The age for marriage, the age for sexual activity, the age for being able to sign a contract can all be different.
@floret ...My comment was not a statement of support....it was a statement of fact! Are you one of those idiot liberals snowflakes who think facts that hurt your feelings are racist and bigoted? Do you think science is a tool of the patriarchy and is racist? This is what you sound like. You can not judge history or other cultures with you holier than thou Western gynocentric lens...it makes you look foolish. To be honest, laws in the Western world make no sense and conflict with themselves. So what is legal age??? Is it 16 to drive a car....is it 18 to vote and get drafted (if your a man), is it 21 when you can legally drink....or is it 26 where you can stay on your parents insurance? It is schizophrenic and makes no sense. How can you be able to die for your country but not able to buy a beer? For thousands of years in most cultures on the planet, you were considered an adult around the age of 13. As cultures and societies move forward, they are also moving the age of adulthood forward....that is why we have people in the late 20's and 30's living with their parents, when only a few generations ago, people were marrying and living out on their own before their 20th birthday.
Never in my life have I had 110k *IN CASH* like that 19 yr old 😲 nor will I probably ever & much less spend it in one night. These customers are filthy rich.
it's funny because people portray Japanese people in media as very awkward and anti social but during these interviews they're so well spoken and calmer than most people
and far away from the standard of good look required in appearance-centered industries, like modeling and acting. We have seen handsome Japanese actors and models. It tells us the taste of Japanese women who visit Kabuki-cho.
Well I found it being just very Japanees.. I many times see that giggling almost being nervous or shoving up your feelings in the ass whiles talking about something serious or personal.. but that's just how I saw it, personally.
Aneesh Prasobhan Or he changed the story, a parent wouldn't kick their underage child to the streets just for not getting into a school, maybe if he was involved with gangs like yakuza sure
Like a nice person? The girls that fall for him start being prostitutes so they can pay for all the drinks. Is that what a nice person does, manipulating girls into prostitution?
Sven, Hi i agree 100%. Many people,even young people, are sadly lonely and will pay a very high price for good looking company. Sad thing is the the Gigolo does not really care about you like a boyfriend would. Sad that young girl paying all that money for him and the champagne .
Totally agree with you. It´s very sad to know someone had this "idea" of getting money from lonely people, I mean... God! this is too low, they should look for a shrink, not pay for a handsome guy to pretend is interesting on you. It´s all an ilusion and I´m pretty sure in the end of day the girl knows it and feels bad about herself :(
A lot of people her ein Japan look down on people in this field of work, but this man got kicked out of his own home as a teenager with $50, went to Tokyo, lived in a park, and came this far. Good for him
This Host is amazing and said something that is so true, "Do not be a copycat and be original." A singer in the USA said that those that copy her will never get as far as she did because fans know and like who she is. In other words, be yourself.
I'm married to an ex-host and worked as one myself some year ago so I'm kind of familiar with this kind of world. We both struggled so much, it's not easy at it seems to be at all. Luring customers is quite easy, keeping them is not. Most hosts quit their job early because the pay is ridiculously low. And you feel lonely every day. Surrounded by so many people who like you just for your look. Personally, I'm happy me and my husband did find another job at last and be happy together. Just don't judge other people's choices badly because you don't agree with something, we are all humans and have a heart with emotions even if you have to discard it sometimes in this world if you want to succeed in life.
Fulvia Maccarrone it would be really interesting if you would make a video about it. Since I only read about the bad outcomes of this industry in this comment section. Can you leave on free will or is it more complicated than that? Did your moral stand points change? A lady in this comment section wrote about knowing a man that got severely suicidal after retiring because of working in that industry for 20 years and owning 2 host clubs. Also she wrote about a customer trying to kill themselve because she felt deceived by the host. Are stories like these common?
Yes, unfortunately this stories are VERY common. And especially if you are ranked low at first you have to drink so much alcohol that basically ruins your organs for life. My organs were spared somehow because even if I needed money I thought at my health first and didn't drink too much. But my husband has to take medicine because of it and is in costant pain. The fact that you can or can not leave on free will varies from host club to another. There are usually very strict rules you have to follow and you can not just leave from day to night. But in some cases you can. For the part about girls or guys acting crazy...I received a lot of dead threats when some girls discovered me and my boyfriend at that time were really dating and in love. Some japanese girls can get really scary. And like one year ago there was a guy injured by a customer's blade. Anyway it's not prostitution like some people wrote it is quite incorrect I would say, maybe they don't understand the culture fully but it is definitely different ...hosts and hostesses provide just male or female company to people who feel lonely in order to make them feel a little happier. Not sleep with them. This is totally unrelated.
@@アリアちゃんチャンネル I'm so sorry to hear your story. I hope you and your husband always happy and determined to face all those problem. It's a tough day for you guys but both of you make it. May God bless.
Fulvia Maccarrone we do what we must. I’m no one to cast judgement on anyone. Only god does that. But anyways, cool story ^.^ glade you found someone you can relate too and settle with. It worked out.
Wallflower sounds rough but in Japan education is really important and this dude just admitted he was so bad at school he couldn’t get in the high school for dummies. Usually if you just do the bare minimum you can get into a school, this dude must’ve really been bad.
Jael Rodriguez understandable, and I acknowledge cultural differences, but imagine kicking out your child because they’re terrible at conventional schooling. Half of Americans would be out at 16.
Imagina having a kid but you don't want to support him/her in their toughest time of their lives. Some kids here are stealing money from their parents or selling their items for drugs, surely if the parents are poor, kids will get beaten and lectured, but to kick them out of the house because they suck at school? i guess that's one of the reason of the declining birth rate in japan. Some may actually value their kids like a trash.
I wouldn't really say he's smart, but I think the best way to describe him is that he's cunning and more of like he has a way to manipulate a conversation or situation to something that favors him. He is witty in a sense that he's so experienced in this field that flattery words are like second nature and flows out of his mouth like a waterfall. The experience with different girls helped him scrutinize, decide and apply what's BEST to different kinds of girls. That just what I think though.
Yeah real or not pitty is a big tool that many people use to gain gifts and economical support even more if they talk to you and act like people that take care of you in a setting of drinking. I mean this more common but who doesn't know many girls with a sad story in bars that have sponsors and
So you admit: twitch/onlyfans NEEDS to stop? no? double standards. you don't like it when it's AGAINST your gender. but when it's all FOR your gender, you're the first to scream ''yes queen, take HIS money'' lel.
I've watched many of your videos of Japan and this guy is the most outgoing/extrovert speaker so far, like a westerner. Seems like he pretty much deserves the money he earns.
I like his honesty! I have seen other videos about other hosts but they are almost all haughty. I kinda understand why he is doing so well. He is relatable.
He definitely has the ‘idol’ vibe. Hence if Yamada Ryosuke becomes a host, he can beat him. Lol. I can clearly understand why he’s popular. The guy’s open and light hearted. Truly charming. But I find it hard to understand the fact that someone has to do side jobs and night life works to support him and his lot. It’s like losing your money as a hobby.
As much as I love Yama-chan, he's too introverted and awkward with girls to be a host... I mean have you seen how he's with other people? 😂 He's more of a performer uwu The host looks like a mixture of Yamada and Ryusei of Jwest
Rosanna Berckley Loneliness, especially among seniors, is a very serious issue here in the Netherlands. It’s gotten so serious that the government created jobs specifically in the social work field for these people. The reason for this issue is that Dutch people lead very non-social lives. Dutch people’s family and social lives aren’t so tight-knitted as those of other cultures. I suppose a lot of countries struggle with loneliness.
People are complaining he is gay, not good-looking. No, his job isn't about just looks alone. It's also the charms, the comfort he can brings to his client. Do your research.
Can you tell me where it is stated that he's gay? On which part?because i've watched the whole video but can't find the part about him being gay. Thankyou
I was just wondering what she does, apart from the slim posibility that she does more than 4 jobs to get all that money. Of course she could be rich based on how well she's dressed and her manners too.
Lonely people are desperate for someone to be with, that's why they pay even if it's so expensive.but keep doing that, that's a long run job and you will not regret it.
It's kind of disturbing though how some women go to the point of ruining themselves and working in this industry just to "support" their favorite hosts. Though I'm curious about their female counterparts ! I hope next time we can hear from a hostess (I personally knew a university student who worked as one when I lived in Japan. All, even her boyfriend, knew it)
Oh stop it. When men go to strippers, the women are the victim. When guys are being objectified by women, the women are still the victim? This shows that women and men are equal in their objectification of the other sex.
@@anis6800 my statement was clearly about people ruining their lives to go see them regardless of genders. I'm talking about females as victims here since the video itself is about hosts. I don't see how your comment relates to mine.
@@osumanaaa9982 He's a typical western MGTOW/MRA. Always complaining about women. Types like him don't care about non-West women who can only imagine having the same rights Western women have.
To be honest, this is really sad. I'm all in for people going there to have a good time out of their own accord, but the way loneliness and longing for affection is exploited to lure clients is heartbreaking.
He said he became high on demand once he was honest to customers about not having money. Customers are there cuz they have no love life but have money. Perfect match!
@@mayshusakuhanamurasufferli5438 Well there you have it, you just solved the puzzle. Most people can't get a gf because the women are after the top men out there, and they are lonely because of their standards, so they "have to" pay not to be lonely, but it'd be really easy not to be if they were just reasonable.
What people don't understand about this is both the host and his "princesses" are slaves to the Yakuza. He got into debt with them (through drugs or visiting hostesses himself) and is now paying it off by being a "host". The girls that see him get into the same debt and then become "hostesses" to pay off their debt to the Yakuza. I wouldn't be surprised if that lambo is a "gift" from the Yakuza to better advertise their top "earner".
@heir drah He bangs them if he's really attracted. Sounds pretty sweet to me. Seems like the only bad thing about the job is the liver damage that ensues if you're not a top host.
@@otk88403 you're forgetting the pressure and guilt you'll deal with on a daily basis. Take note at the part where he confessed that some of his clients prostitute themselves to pay him. The interviewer asked how he felt and that moment you can see his face gets quite uncomfortable. His answer was to look away. Means he is aware that he is the reason these girls/ladies get hooked into prostitution but he prefers not to think too deep. Can you deal with that? Knowingly pulling others into prostitution?
The guy is an empty shell now. I feel bad for him. You can tell by his eyes when talking about some aspects of his job that he has seen some messed up stuff. That said, the one question the lady failed to ask is what happens when the women rack up debts and can’t pay?
They get roped into prostitution, that's what. There are other, better documentaries about this. You rack up a debt, then they come calling and you have to work it off in other clubs as a "host" or a good old prostitute. This is a classic trap for those young girls.
True. When she asks him about a girlfriend, he said what is so great about having a girlfriend. That was a very grapes are sour kind of response. Like he knows he may never have a real girlfriend in this situation. Girls like him for the fake persona he has created and he likes them for the cash. He would never experience how a real relationship works and sadly he knows that.
@Isabella Woods sometimes, yes. When people ask where and what I work, and while speaking you realise what kind o s@ you need to do just for a few bucks at the end of the month. Yes, sometimes.
This is very true. Kid in the video is clearly not being honest about the reality of this situation. He even games Asian Boss to get them to perpetuate his fibs and be free PR.
Some Japanese do feel fulfilled inside. Its just a matter of how everyone perceive happiness. Some have a very low standard for happiness while some have a very high standard for happiness. What I mean is, some people feels fulfilled over simple little things while other needs much more. Everyone is not the same. Each one is unique.
@@banned0404 The reason for being happy is different for everyone but the feeling of happiness or pain or hunger is same for everyone .. Having money is not the problem.. But look at the reason for which he is getting money.. People's need to buy a boyfriend like guy (host) or renting a family.. It shows how empty the society is that they have to spend money on such things which was supposed to get without spending money... You can't buy and make people love you.. But still.. Everyone is pretending or acting whether its the customer or the host.. Because that's the only way to connect with people.. There are many examples out there Having money and still Living a balanced life..

But idk if his parents “gave up” on him he said they basically told him he has to figure out how to live on his own since he doesn’t want to study and that’s reasonable I doubt they just straight up kicked him out I feel like he chose to live in the box for the time being to save his money to move to the city he strikes me as that type of guy I’m the same way I got into so much trouble in my youth and dropped out of high school early and my mom although she supported me told me since you don’t want to go to school you gotta learn to look after yourself and when I said I was going to move out I actually lived in my car for a while until I could afford an apartment for myself instead of trying to find a roommate or live in a hostel type of thing
I think the guy is lying about it
The facade he puts up is praiseworthy. Just the right amount of emphaty, right amount of showing self awareness of the things he does to cloak the more shady side of his work, the right amount of charm. He has perfected the craft of setting himself up to show himself off. A one man show. This is novel worthy material lol.
damn i couldnt agree more. I'm good at socializing to a point, I love to talk to people, but if i ever get the feeling someone's using me for something I cannot save face. i could never be in this line of work, but im fascinated by anyone that can put up a facade this well
Forreal, this is a great setting for a young adult manga or a modern day thriller
Indeed, he truly is a skilled host. It’s really interesting.
Crazy amount of charisma and very cunning. Heavy dose of boyish charms with a little bit of alcohol and it’s no wonder he’s got regulars who fawn over him.

I love this lady interviewer.
She was able to treat this subject with respect and ask her questions in a natural but non offensive manner.
People only see the bling but I see a very lonely kid. His story is quite sad... and his dream of 'owning stuff' and 'wearing nice clothes' is very telling. On the other hand, I admire his will to fight and his tenacity to never give up on life. If you looked pass the booze and the party, you'd see a struggling young man trying to find his place in this world. I wish him luck.
EDIT: Some people have accused me of being a 'feminist' and that I'm jealous of this young man. I just want to say that I have not a single iota of jealousy. I had some rough times growing up myself but I never had to endure homelessness and fend for myself at the age of 16. This person really had it rough and I'm just stating my observations. I admire and feel sad for him at the same time. That's all.
Driving a Lamborgini and wearing a 100k watch is not struggling. I think he's living the life. Your just hating.
Flash he probably is. But he has to sell himself for it. And I think that would be hard for anyone. Specially at such a young age of 16.

@@sweetathegreat I agree. :)

Non Japanese people first you need to understand Japan better besides what you might think or have seen. There is a huge dark side in Japan. This is one of them. This kid is not rich at all. It's like a rapper in the USA. They get advances by the label. Well, in this case the record label is the Yakuza. Yes, they are very active but it's not all what you think it is. Kabuki-cho is known for this type of industry. It is most likely that because Kunugi is a popular host that he can receive certain advances. What I also think is that his boss borrowed him that Lambo so that the company can be portrayed as bling bling in this video. The fact that Kunugi was disowned by his own parents makes him an easy target for the Yakuza and other crime orgs in Japan.
Im happy someone spoke out about this

It's even sadder because the money they earn being a hostess is blown on trying to win the temporary attention of a host.

How can you be a 19 year old girl and have 110k to spend on a guy!? I struggle to understand. With that money, I’d buy myself a freaking FARM! 😅
A great deal of the host model of earning is based on prostitution.
The hosts demand money from women, the women go out and earn money by selling their bodies directly or by being hostesses demanding money themselves.
These top hosts are effectively pimps. They know that's what they are and don't care. Their wasteful purchases bought from the suffering of others.
Some admire it. I think it's pathetic.
Their money, their choice. Ass poor people have no right to judge them.

Those people, who's feelings and insecurities he exploits, clearly need him. More so that they go and sell themselves for money to pay for his attention and drinks.
He said "there are still many things I haven't done yet and things that I want to do in my life." It makes me wonder how he envisions his future. Being a host is like being an athlete, it has an "expiration date" or a "best by" date quicker than many other occupations. Whatever he decides to do next, I wish him all the best.
Even though he calls himself "stupid," he's very emotionally intelligent and self-aware, so I know he'll find his path.
working in a construction yard has his exparation day but he made in one day what the construction guy made in a month. if he is a little bit smart he is saving a little bit on the side and when he expires he can enjoy a beach life
Most hosts end up making less money than an average person. There are just too many who end up wasting their money towards the end of their career with no job experience and cannot fix their over extravagant lifestyle.
Well for one, if everything else fails he can easily open up his own place. These top guys end up with so much psychological knowledge, that the charisma would never fade. It has to come from somewhere too. It's not an easy task to be a listener, and i would think most of these top dudes are good at that. Throwing compliments is just one thing in their line of work. If you're good all around it wouldn't be wrong to say he could easily be doing this up to his mid 30s.

Dear Asian Boss, please consider updating your title because a "Host" is different from a "Gigolo".
stralbem What’s the difference?
@@YuahLee
It is like this: (Total summary at the end)
1. Gigolo - has only 1 lover or a "sugar mommy" who he is financially dependent on, sometimes they even live together.
Host - Their job is to chat with women customers and they are not exclusive partners of their customers.
2. Gigolo - Since he a lover they would most probably sleep together and they are in a relationship
Host - as mentioned by Kunugi-kun, a host can sleep with their customers if they are attracted to that customer, no strings attached.
3. Gigolo - depending on their lovers is one of their source of income
Host - they are professional escorts who will chat with you and basically will their income from the drinks that the customers order while they are chatting with you
Basically the gist of it:
Gigolo - it is not their job to escort or accompany a girl, they are in a relationship with their lover, one of their source of income is their lover
Host - it is their job to escort or accompany their customer, they are not in a relationship with their customers, one of their source of income is the sales of the drinks that their customers bought while they are chatting with them
stralbem Cool, that’s new knowledge for me. Thank you for the clarification.

@Chupakeks2019 damn, who hurt u man?
He said he became a host at 16. He was a minor, something makes me uncomfortable about older women flirting with him at that age
Legal age and consent ages vary around the world. Here is what I found: Japan statutory rape law is violated when an individual has consensual sexual contact with a person under age 13. ... The age of marriage is 16 for girls and 18 for boys. In 2018 Japan changed its legal adult age to 18 due to their crisis with low birth rates. Western standards really don't apply anywhere else, so no need to feel uncomfortable about it. I lived in the Philippines for several years back in the 90's, and their age of consent was 13 years old, and it was not unusual to see 14-15 year old girls working in bars as hostesses. Being considered a minor in the US is all encompassing.....not so in many places around the world, where they have different legal ages for different activities. The age for marriage, the age for sexual activity, the age for being able to sign a contract can all be different.

You can not judge history or other cultures with you holier than thou Western gynocentric lens...it makes you look foolish. To be honest, laws in the Western world make no sense and conflict with themselves. So what is legal age??? Is it 16 to drive a car....is it 18 to vote and get drafted (if your a man), is it 21 when you can legally drink....or is it 26 where you can stay on your parents insurance? It is schizophrenic and makes no sense. How can you be able to die for your country but not able to buy a beer?
For thousands of years in most cultures on the planet, you were considered an adult around the age of 13. As cultures and societies move forward, they are also moving the age of adulthood forward....that is why we have people in the late 20's and 30's living with their parents, when only a few generations ago, people were marrying and living out on their own before their 20th birthday.

Never in my life have I had 110k *IN CASH* like that 19 yr old 😲 nor will I probably ever & much less spend it in one night. These customers are filthy rich.
Celeste never in my life have I had 110k, period 😂
Rich AND reckless.
But I guess if you're that rich, you can afford to be reckless.
Wow, what are these Japanese girls doing? And where they get their money?
@@DarkPa1adin
money from their daddy
@@DarkPa1adin right? they are crazy rich Asians.
it's funny because people portray Japanese people in media as very awkward and anti social but during these interviews they're so well spoken and calmer than most people
His face looks like he could be anywhere between 16 to 45
why is this so true
He is not young. He has had plastic surgery. The neck always gives it away.
@@adc2327 his neck doesn't look old tho
I think its the plastic surgery, especially his eyes
and far away from the standard of good look required in appearance-centered industries, like modeling and acting. We have seen handsome Japanese actors and models. It tells us the taste of Japanese women who visit Kabuki-cho.
His charisma is like straight out of a book the way he plays around with words and makes not beeing accepted in school or beeing homless a funny story
probably fake
Car is probably a Yakuza "gift"
Well I found it being just very Japanees.. I many times see that giggling almost being nervous or shoving up your feelings in the ass whiles talking about something serious or personal.. but that's just how I saw it, personally.
He has told the story hundreds of times.
Aneesh Prasobhan Or he changed the story, a parent wouldn't kick their underage child to the streets just for not getting into a school, maybe if he was involved with gangs like yakuza sure
"I decided to prove myself to society and worked at a construction site". I like the way he thinks and he seems like a nice person too.
tamakikawaii that’s how every japanese thinks when they graduate after junior high
Like a nice person? The girls that fall for him start being prostitutes so they can pay for all the drinks. Is that what a nice person does, manipulating girls into prostitution?
@@FiFiFilth his manipulation already working whether they realize it or not lmaooo
17 mins of interview and I'm already liking this guy's personality. He's respectful but also quite upfront to the topics.
How THE FRICK are 19 year old girls able to afford this
through their parents
Whited Out 100k+ in one night?
LowryderKid most of the costumers are older than 19
They often have like 3 jobs or are hostesses just like him to pay for gifts
That's an example of kids from filthy rich family haha
Honestly, this whole business seems like a sad and cheap way to get money out of lonely and isolated people while selling them an illusion.
Sven, Hi i agree 100%. Many people,even young people, are sadly lonely and will pay a very high price for good looking company. Sad thing is the the Gigolo does not really care about you like a boyfriend would. Sad that young girl paying all that money for him and the champagne .
Totally agree with you. It´s very sad to know someone had this "idea" of getting money from lonely people, I mean... God! this is too low, they should look for a shrink, not pay for a handsome guy to pretend is interesting on you. It´s all an ilusion and I´m pretty sure in the end of day the girl knows it and feels bad about herself :(
@Aj Jj Yes. I know & agree. Prostitution is called The oldest profession in the world. HAHA ! :)
Just like OnlyFans, mukbang youtubers, and twitch streamers

His parents: Live on your own

I feel like most of Japanese people are lonely, thats why this type of job is popular in Japan.

In Japan loneliness is big problem now レンタル家族 lets you rent family
Yes, suicide rates are highest in japan.. such good and respectful but I guess the fact that japan is so strict drives everyone insane over there
I was expecting like a super seriously handsome fella, but he just looks like any other guy in the streets
True. He loos like ordinary men with botox..
a guy like that would never wanted to be interview.. i've meet that kind person btw.
To be honest he kinda looks gay
Just with a little bit filler and double eyelid surgery.
He actually looks nice for me hehe
A lot of people her ein Japan look down on people in this field of work, but this man got kicked out of his own home as a teenager with $50, went to Tokyo, lived in a park, and came this far. Good for him
This Host is amazing and said something that is so true, "Do not be a copycat and be original." A singer in the USA said that those that copy her will never get as far as she did because fans know and like who she is. In other words, be yourself.
I'm married to an ex-host and worked as one myself some year ago so I'm kind of familiar with this kind of world. We both struggled so much, it's not easy at it seems to be at all. Luring customers is quite easy, keeping them is not. Most hosts quit their job early because the pay is ridiculously low. And you feel lonely every day. Surrounded by so many people who like you just for your look. Personally, I'm happy me and my husband did find another job at last and be happy together. Just don't judge other people's choices badly because you don't agree with something, we are all humans and have a heart with emotions even if you have to discard it sometimes in this world if you want to succeed in life.
Fulvia Maccarrone it would be really interesting if you would make a video about it. Since I only read about the bad outcomes of this industry in this comment section. Can you leave on free will or is it more complicated than that? Did your moral stand points change? A lady in this comment section wrote about knowing a man that got severely suicidal after retiring because of working in that industry for 20 years and owning 2 host clubs. Also she wrote about a customer trying to kill themselve because she felt deceived by the host. Are stories like these common?
Its good for you. I hope you will always happy. I mean both of you
Yes, unfortunately this stories are VERY common. And especially if you are ranked low at first you have to drink so much alcohol that basically ruins your organs for life. My organs were spared somehow because even if I needed money I thought at my health first and didn't drink too much. But my husband has to take medicine because of it and is in costant pain. The fact that you can or can not leave on free will varies from host club to another. There are usually very strict rules you have to follow and you can not just leave from day to night. But in some cases you can. For the part about girls or guys acting crazy...I received a lot of dead threats when some girls discovered me and my boyfriend at that time were really dating and in love. Some japanese girls can get really scary. And like one year ago there was a guy injured by a customer's blade. Anyway it's not prostitution like some people wrote it is quite incorrect I would say, maybe they don't understand the culture fully but it is definitely different ...hosts and hostesses provide just male or female company to people who feel lonely in order to make them feel a little happier. Not sleep with them. This is totally unrelated.
@@アリアちゃんチャンネル I'm so sorry to hear your story. I hope you and your husband always happy and determined to face all those problem. It's a tough day for you guys but both of you make it. May God bless.
Fulvia Maccarrone we do what we must. I’m no one to cast judgement on anyone. Only god does that.
But anyways, cool story ^.^ glade you found someone you can relate too and settle with. It worked out.
Just 16 years old and his parents are like ' try living on your own'. 🤧🤧🤧
Edit: never got this much likes before.
Wallflower sounds rough but in Japan education is really important and this dude just admitted he was so bad at school he couldn’t get in the high school for dummies. Usually if you just do the bare minimum you can get into a school, this dude must’ve really been bad.
Jael Rodriguez understandable, and I acknowledge cultural differences, but imagine kicking out your child because they’re terrible at conventional schooling. Half of Americans would be out at 16.
Imagina having a kid but you don't want to support him/her in their toughest time of their lives. Some kids here are stealing money from their parents or selling their items for drugs, surely if the parents are poor, kids will get beaten and lectured, but to kick them out of the house because they suck at school? i guess that's one of the reason of the declining birth rate in japan. Some may actually value their kids like a trash.
the most intelligent students who get A+ etc works for people who get B, C, D etc? Do you not see different in here? idiot.
@@Loxly-ti4sq yes, from what I've seen, Japanese parents are mostly really cold. :/
I wouldn't really say he's smart, but I think the best way to describe him is that he's cunning and more of like he has a way to manipulate a conversation or situation to something that favors him. He is witty in a sense that he's so experienced in this field that flattery words are like second nature and flows out of his mouth like a waterfall. The experience with different girls helped him scrutinize, decide and apply what's BEST to different kinds of girls.
That just what I think though.
I would say he is clever, more than smart. Street smart, maybe.
His homeless story is refined and goes a long way with chicks who have intact fams. They can "fix" him
Tbh, street smarts can bring you farther than intelligence. Its all about connections and how you can expand yourself.
Yeah real or not pitty is a big tool that many people use to gain gifts and economical support even more if they talk to you and act like people that take care of you in a setting of drinking. I mean this more common but who doesn't know many girls with a sad story in bars that have sponsors and
So you admit: twitch/onlyfans NEEDS to stop? no? double standards. you don't like it when it's AGAINST your gender. but when it's all FOR your gender, you're the first to scream ''yes queen, take HIS money'' lel.
I've watched many of your videos of Japan and this guy is the most outgoing/extrovert speaker so far, like a westerner. Seems like he pretty much deserves the money he earns.
I like his honesty! I have seen other videos about other hosts but they are almost all haughty. I kinda understand why he is doing so well. He is relatable.
He definitely has the ‘idol’ vibe. Hence if Yamada Ryosuke becomes a host, he can beat him. Lol. I can clearly understand why he’s popular. The guy’s open and light hearted. Truly charming. But I find it hard to understand the fact that someone has to do side jobs and night life works to support him and his lot. It’s like losing your money as a hobby.
-_-" no
YEAH HE'S SIMILIAR WITH YAMADA
He really looks like yama-chan
Theres some women who went bankrupt just because they want to meet with theit belohved host
As much as I love Yama-chan, he's too introverted and awkward with girls to be a host... I mean have you seen how he's with other people? 😂 He's more of a performer uwu
The host looks like a mixture of Yamada and Ryusei of Jwest
This whole situation depresses me. We should all look out for eachother more. Loneliness will be the biggest killer of the 21st century.
It already is not joking
Agreed, the fact that this is this man and other people's reality is ABSOLUTELY terrifying
Rosanna Berckley Loneliness, especially among seniors, is a very serious issue here in the Netherlands. It’s gotten so serious that the government created jobs specifically in the social work field for these people.
The reason for this issue is that Dutch people lead very non-social lives. Dutch people’s family and social lives aren’t so tight-knitted as those of other cultures.
I suppose a lot of countries struggle with loneliness.

D W lmaooo yess 😂😂✊🏼
I had no idea host clubs were a real thing lol 😅

i was thinking the same thing.
People are complaining he is gay, not good-looking. No, his job isn't about just looks alone. It's also the charms, the comfort he can brings to his client. Do your research.
He has to have that type of hairstyle because that's what Japanese women relate to guys who are models and on TV.
@NeoGeoSNK Facts.
Can you tell me where it is stated that he's gay? On which part?because i've watched the whole video but can't find the part about him being gay. Thankyou
He's gay...take a look again @ 10:28 -10:30 .....No straight guy act like that.
It's surprising to me that the video of the female hostess got so much positive comments but this guy is being hated . Double standards
18:34 "Please don't copy what I do."
*3 seconds staring at the camera trying to say I REALLY MEAN IT*
At least he's genuinely happy on his job and more on what he's gotten
I stopped laughing when she told, she brought $110k bottle.
Dude, i just paused the video after this
I'm literaly at that spot right now too smh

It's kind of disturbing though how some women go to the point of ruining themselves and working in this industry just to "support" their favorite hosts. Though I'm curious about their female counterparts ! I hope next time we can hear from a hostess (I personally knew a university student who worked as one when I lived in Japan. All, even her boyfriend, knew it)
There are some video about them as well but not from asianboss. Maybe from vice. I don't remember. You can em out
Oh stop it. When men go to strippers, the women are the victim. When guys are being objectified by women, the women are still the victim? This shows that women and men are equal in their objectification of the other sex.
@@anis6800 my statement was clearly about people ruining their lives to go see them regardless of genders. I'm talking about females as victims here since the video itself is about hosts. I don't see how your comment relates to mine.
@@osumanaaa9982 He's a typical western MGTOW/MRA. Always complaining about women. Types like him don't care about non-West women who can only imagine having the same rights Western women have.
It's most likely the same with strippers and dudes doing anything for cash for her. However this is just a more "innocent not so innocent" case. Lol
To be honest, this is really sad. I'm all in for people going there to have a good time out of their own accord, but the way loneliness and longing for affection is exploited to lure clients is heartbreaking.
I've had my Lamborghini for so many years and someday I'll be able to afford that juice box, if I work hard for it.

MOST PPL ARE BELOW AVERAGE IN EVERYTHING
@@mayshusakuhanamurasufferli5438 Most people are by definition average, I'm dumbfounded by what I'm reading.
What people don't understand about this is both the host and his "princesses" are slaves to the Yakuza. He got into debt with them (through drugs or visiting hostesses himself) and is now paying it off by being a "host". The girls that see him get into the same debt and then become "hostesses" to pay off their debt to the Yakuza. I wouldn't be surprised if that lambo is a "gift" from the Yakuza to better advertise their top "earner".
So sad
Probably why he got disowned as well

Junger Flaanger it’s a big pyramid scheme

@heir drah He bangs them if he's really attracted. Sounds pretty sweet to me. Seems like the only bad thing about the job is the liver damage that ensues if you're not a top host.
@@otk88403 you're forgetting the pressure and guilt you'll deal with on a daily basis.
Take note at the part where he confessed that some of his clients prostitute themselves to pay him.
The interviewer asked how he felt and that moment you can see his face gets quite uncomfortable.
His answer was to look away. Means he is aware that he is the reason these girls/ladies get hooked into prostitution but he prefers not to think too deep.
Can you deal with that? Knowingly pulling others into prostitution?
The guy is an empty shell now. I feel bad for him. You can tell by his eyes when talking about some aspects of his job that he has seen some messed up stuff.
That said, the one question the lady failed to ask is what happens when the women rack up debts and can’t pay?
They get roped into prostitution, that's what. There are other, better documentaries about this. You rack up a debt, then they come calling and you have to work it off in other clubs as a "host" or a good old prostitute. This is a classic trap for those young girls.
SubiDubi DuDa correct
True. When she asks him about a girlfriend, he said what is so great about having a girlfriend. That was a very grapes are sour kind of response. Like he knows he may never have a real girlfriend in this situation. Girls like him for the fake persona he has created and he likes them for the cash. He would never experience how a real relationship works and sadly he knows that.
@Isabella Woods sometimes, yes. When people ask where and what I work, and while speaking you realise what kind o s@ you need to do just for a few bucks at the end of the month. Yes, sometimes.
Yes..very sad to me.He's killing his liver at such a young age.😢
Sometimes Japan looks like a video game 😅😅.. Its really depressing
Its looks fulfilled from outside but its empty inside..
This is very true. Kid in the video is clearly not being honest about the reality of this situation. He even games Asian Boss to get them to perpetuate his fibs and be free PR.
Yeah in usa they just do meth n cocaine.
Some Japanese do feel fulfilled inside. Its just a matter of how everyone perceive happiness. Some have a very low standard for happiness while some have a very high standard for happiness. What I mean is, some people feels fulfilled over simple little things while other needs much more.
Everyone is not the same. Each one is unique.
@@banned0404 The reason for being happy is different for everyone but the feeling of happiness or pain or hunger is same for everyone .. Having money is not the problem.. But look at the reason for which he is getting money.. People's need to buy a boyfriend like guy (host) or renting a family.. It shows how empty the society is that they have to spend money on such things which was supposed to get without spending money... You can't buy and make people love you.. But still.. Everyone is pretending or acting whether its the customer or the host.. Because that's the only way to connect with people..
There are many examples out there Having money and still Living a balanced life..
That's because it's extremely capitalistic and everything is transactional. Everything comes with a price tag.
Really enjoyed this. Hope his future is as bright as he is.❤❤❤❤
