I am so confused right now. I have the same hairstyle. I'm an Asian male. You have the same hair same kind of style as me, an Asian male. Except you're not male nor Asian. But you pull it off better than I can. 0_o
As someone who has made a hobby out of picking up girls your description of his sad then immediate joy when you asked if he liked being a host.... its a "save me" tactic. Women have something naturally in them that makes them want to save or change guys for the better. You get a girl that hooked into that and she is very likely to follow you where ever. It could be real but it's more likely just one of their many tactics to getting return customers, as is the "kiss me now". Get a kiss on the first day especially in the first 20 minutes you are set. The majority of these guys make A LOT of money... if they wanted out they could get out, but it would be hard to give up a job where you make thousands a month drinking and flirting with women.
True they draw you in lol I think only some actually don't like their jobs, because I heard stories on many of them ending up in hospitals because of alcohol poisoning, and they end up feeling distant from making a relationship. Because their stuck in this fantasy world, they forget what's real. So sad :/
Are you kidding me?! I thought Host Clubs don't exist and are a fictional concept created for the anime only. A whole new world has been revealed for me today! :O Now I know what's the first thing I'm gonna do when I go to Japan!
This is what I love about you. You are just so awesome and so comfortable with yourself that you can check out hot boys as well as hot girls and not feel awkward about it.
In the sense that they thought you were a boy, you remind me of Haruhi Fujioka from the Host Club anime when they all thought she was a boy in the first episode. Wow, I really want to go to a host club, mainly for the experience like you did. I am Australian and I don't speak any Japanese at all. I know a few words here and there like kawaii and otaku, but that's about it. Oh - and I can count to three.
Hello, Joey. Let me start by saying how fabulous I think you are as a person. Your strength of character and candor in your videos is inspiring. I wanted to comment on this video in particular because I have always wanted to visit a host club in Japan and for the same reasons you did. Not out of a desire to be fawned over, but to talk to the hosts as real people - get to see them for themselves, not their job. As a former exotic dancer (read stripper) for 19 years, I have a really good grasp of what these men do for a living. It's not an easy job to be viewed as an object or tool for someone else's pleasure. So, treating them as you did - as a human being rather than an object to be used and discarded - hopefully showed them that they are worth more than just what someone is willing to pay for them. Thank you for posting this honest and insightful view into the "host club world". Best wishes to you for your future videos.
I listened to this and through half of it I'm just like "Oh my God she's Haruhi" XD seriously though that sounds like a LOT of fun oh my gosh. I wanna do that too. ;w; I'm trying to learn Japanese anyways so why not right?
omfg i never knew these host clubs were real, after i saw Ouran High School Host Club ive always wondered. AND ITS TRUE except its not clean because its not in a high school.
That was fun. I've never seen one of your videos before. I liked how you appreciated the beauty and expertise of the hosts but also felt compassion for them.
Your experience was sooooooo fun to hear about. You are very animated and a great story teller. Most can get so boring, but yours kept me in anticipation. U need to get into entertainment...for sure.. Thanks for sharing!
i don't understand why you'd want to go somewhere where people are paid to talk to you? i mean they don't want to talk to you, they have to talk to you
Sadly it has come to exactly that. The people who pay to do this want some form of social acknowledgement, they want some kind of contact with someone whether it be somewhat forced or real. I mean it's not like the hosts don't enjoy there jobs. Some make TONS of money and get to do it talking and drinking with other people. The people who do pay do it out of some form of entertainment, not something that they think will be pitied upon. Japan is Japan, USA is USA. Different norms and social life.
I think most tourists do it just so they can say they did it. I mean it's talked about so much, so some people just want to go for the experience. Honestly once I finally get to visit Japan, I'm definitely going to a host club just to see what it's like haha
I think it was either over the age of 18 or 21. I once read it on a host club page but I don't remember. Basically, the legal age for most things I guess
Joey, you inspire me so much. I can't really explain how much your advice helps me. I wish I could show other people your videos, but not teenagers like me. Adults, like a teacher. Or even someone that works at a gas station. Something!! I just want people to know that there are people like you out in the world. That care about people, but if they say something harsh.. you still care, but you just don't care for their mean words. Thanks for helping me through the rough times. I wish you the best of luck. I'll forever be your fan, or even a friend. Love, me.
Dark Unova Most likely not. The host clubs are aimed towards gullible women with money to spend. The hosts provides them a fake sense of being love. Some women spend until they end up in debt. Many of the host clubs are ran by the Yakuza, which acts as a loan shark and make the women work (as prostitute) to pay off their debt. It's a rather dark industry.
you are so charismatic.. i feel like I've known you for a while through this video. i don't think I've ever felt like this through a youtube video...dont let this bother you or stick in your head. keep being you. really entertaining video..
Ok first, wow you are like my hero for doing that, I now look up yo you so much. Second, I just wanna hug all those hosts now that is so sad. Lastly arigato for the info and hope you had a nice time at a host club (still cant believe you got to go to one. Your so lucky) ^-^
A really interesting insight into Host Clubs. I didn't realise there were such sad backstories! I would be interested in going and seeing what they are like.
You have a very relaxing and down to earth personality, liked the vid eh. Sounds like you had quite an interesting experience to hold onto for some time.
Wait. Wait wait wait. "Joey." That name could be Joanna, Jolisa, Jo, and many others, but here we have a girl named Joey. Haruhi: gender ambiguous name. Haruhi Fujioka: girl thought of as boy due to male sounding voice and gender ambiguous appearance. Joey: girl who confuses people with looks and voice but is physically female. Joey, like it or not, you are the REAL LIFE VERSION of Haruhi Fujioka! To that end, I must say: CONGRATULATIONS!! You are AWESOME!!! >w
Sounds like it was so coo. I went to Japan 2 times & stayed in Shinjuku. I talked to a few of the host in Kabukicho standing outside. My friend & I almost went inside of a host club. We missed our chance. I'm going to So. Korea soon...wonder if they have anything like that there. Really enjoyed hearing about your experience. You rock!
Omaygash!! You went into a host club alone?! I love all the quirkiness of Japan and I'm intrigued of experiencing a host club once too. But really... to get into all that (awkard place) all alone.... You're so brave!
Wow, that must have been an amazing experience. It's cool how they tried to speak English to you, I appreciate it when people make an effort to talk to me. And I'm sure you made an effort in Japanese too. I mean, the fact that you got there is enough to see the effort you put in.
thanks so much for this joey it must have been an amazing experiance i envy you but so happy for you to love to here peoples adventures in japan it would be great to go there some day
omigosh, I used you watch your videos when I was like 10, I was really happy and surprised when one of your videos popped up on my sidebar :D I didn't know you still made videos so I got a lot of catching up to do!
Joey, I am spending a month and a week in AP region and am having a blast. I love your sense of adventure! I went to a hostess club with co-workers in Roppongi. I didn't know they had host clubs too! I am glad you enjoyed yourself! Also,don't short change yourself, you are a beautiful girl!
thank you for posting this, i was looking for a story covering the emotional impact on these hosts and your observations have been very helpful. The japanese culture is turning into something out of a Aldoux Huxley's 'brave new world' or ray bradbury's 'Fahrenheit 451'.
This is my first time watching your video, but you're really funny and have a cool personality. Thanks for talking about the host clubs I've always wanted to try going to one, now if only I can visit Japan someday...although I'm too nice and shy sometimes so I'd probably be one of those poor suckers getting conned into coming back more and more after getting charmed by them

James W. Sleight OMG
I am so confused right now. I have the same hairstyle. I'm an Asian male. You have the same hair same kind of style as me, an Asian male. Except you're not male nor Asian. But you pull it off better than I can. 0_o
Ohmmygoddd your comment made my day and life hahaha! It's all in the sexy face ;)

edit / i know she’s not trans but yk

This is what I love about you. You are just so awesome and so comfortable with yourself that you can check out hot boys as well as hot girls and not feel awkward about it.
"Oh snap! They gave me their number too!" XD

ik it was beautiful
+MissMidnightRose Too bad they do that to everyone to make them feel special ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Oh, hi Tamaki.
(:
Omg I'm so jelly. Your story is so freaking amazing!
In the sense that they thought you were a boy, you remind me of Haruhi Fujioka from the Host Club anime when they all thought she was a boy in the first episode.

+zeroshadow28 ahww thank you!!! hope to visit your beautiful country again soon! I enjoyed the culture sooo much too! =3
+Joeyblondewolf2 when do you plan on going back to Japan and making a another video like this
Hello, Joey. Let me start by saying how fabulous I think you are as a person. Your strength of character and candor in your videos is inspiring.

seriously though that sounds like a LOT of fun oh my gosh. I wanna do that too. ;w; I'm trying to learn Japanese anyways so why not right?
If you search "host club in japan" on google,and go to images, at some point you'll find a picture of Joey ^.^ hehe
Close Enough Lol I thought you were joking but OO' I found about 3 without having to scroll much. He's so adorable
Miyana Alice It's a she. Joey's actually a girl. I know. I was confused for a long time too :))
Yeah I know. I was just confused when I watched this particular video. Sorry Joey >
OMG girl you are too funny ... xD
he is a girl? Oo' i mean she*
Yes, she's a "female".
omg im not gay!
***** both, joey is both.
Now I understand why the boy-clubs in Thailand are so popular with Japanese women.
that just made me love japan even more then i already do. thankx joey.
Damn, you mean this whole time I've been an alcoholic I could have been PAID to do it... shit... Japans awesome.
omfg i never knew these host clubs were real, after i saw Ouran High School Host Club ive always wondered. AND ITS TRUE except its not clean because its not in a high school.
This was really fun and entertaining to watch.
Its a very good video! Thanks!:D
your so lucky ! Thank you for sharing your experience! I'd love to do that !
Your voice is so calming. Sorry I just had to say this.
Ouraaan!
That was fun. I've never seen one of your videos before. I liked how you appreciated the beauty and expertise of the hosts but also felt compassion for them.
your just like "oh they gave me their numbers too! wait.. Anyway Anyway! xD your awesome omg
Ahaha the "fuck you I'm cute you ugly" part was hilarious lol
Your experience was sooooooo fun to hear about. You are very animated and a great story teller. Most can get so boring, but yours kept me in anticipation. U need to get into entertainment...for sure.. Thanks for sharing!

The people who do pay do it out of some form of entertainment, not something that they think will be pitied upon. Japan is Japan, USA is USA. Different norms and social life.
I'd go for Ouran High School Club (experience).
Anna Tran Same here. By the way, really cute anime but hea I would go to Ouran high school host club. X3
I think most tourists do it just so they can say they did it. I mean it's talked about so much, so some people just want to go for the experience. Honestly once I finally get to visit Japan, I'm definitely going to a host club just to see what it's like haha
*****
Not sure, but I think Joey just made an entire video about visiting a host club... could be wrong though.
This video made me smile to much. XD
But how old do you have to be, is the real question!
probably 18, just a guess. That would seem to be the standard for this stuff.
I think it was either over the age of 18 or 21. I once read it on a host club page but I don't remember. Basically, the legal age for most things I guess
that was such a fun and informative video! ありがとう!
Wouldn't it be awesome and funny if Joey became like that host club's Haruhi? xD
As soon as I saw the title I thought Ouran High School Host Club !
You are handsome :P
Joey, you inspire me so much. I can't really explain how much your advice helps me. I wish I could show other people your videos, but not teenagers like me. Adults, like a teacher. Or even someone that works at a gas station. Something!! I just want people to know that there are people like you out in the world.

I'll forever be your fan, or even a friend. Love, me.
You could me the next Haruhi Fujioka!
I'm going to Japan, ha. x3 Reminds me of Ouran with the whole them thinking you were a host in training. Heh.
Its really nice to hear the way you talked about them.
You're so thoughtful :)
Most people go to these places because of Ouran
ummmm wtf????
Dark Unova Most likely not. The host clubs are aimed towards gullible women with money to spend. The hosts provides them a fake sense of being love. Some women spend until they end up in debt. Many of the host clubs are ran by the Yakuza, which acts as a loan shark and make the women work (as prostitute) to pay off their debt. It's a rather dark industry.
LOL xD that was so funny when you were getting your ticket xD
Joey you're so cool! Kudos for bravely going into a host club!
your soooo funny!!!:)
i love ouran high school club its a classic anime
lmao@ give me that shit *snatches ticket*
That sounds cool!! I so wanna go there one day !! Arigato Joey-San
Ikr
I dunno
Damn, you could be a host too.
you were like Haruhi fujioka
you are so charismatic.. i feel like I've known you for a while through this video. i don't think I've ever felt like this through a youtube video...dont let this bother you or stick in your head. keep being you. really entertaining video..
You look like Sasuke Uchiha from Naruto, Awesome! :3
As a 24 year old Australian male i think your gorgeous, I don't think you look like a guy, i think a lot of Japanese men look like girls.
Hahahah thanks
bloggs24 "as a Australian male " why does it matter if you're Australian or not ?
no idea how i stumbled upon your channel but watching your videos is just really pleasant for some reason. you have a nice way of talking lol
This is a lot like Ouran High school Host Club lol it's like you're Haruhi.
I never knew that this existed I thought it was made up in the anime
same
Me too😂
Ok first, wow you are like my hero for doing that, I now look up yo you so much. Second, I just wanna hug all those hosts now that is so sad. Lastly arigato for the info and hope you had a nice time at a host club (still cant believe you got to go to one. Your so lucky) ^-^
How old do you have to be to go into a host club?
So interesting haha I wanna go one day :3
A really interesting insight into Host Clubs. I didn't realise there were such sad backstories! I would be interested in going and seeing what they are like.
So basically like ouran host club you know that anime/manga
KISS KISS FALL IN LOVE (Otaku Alert)
Aiko Hazuki MAYBE YOUR MY LOVE
You have a very relaxing and down to earth personality, liked the vid eh. Sounds like you had quite an interesting experience to hold onto for some time.
Wait. Wait wait wait. "Joey."
That name could be Joanna, Jolisa, Jo, and many others, but here we have a girl named Joey.
Haruhi: gender ambiguous name.
Haruhi Fujioka: girl thought of as boy due to male sounding voice and gender ambiguous appearance.
Joey: girl who confuses people with looks and voice but is physically female.
Joey, like it or not, you are the REAL LIFE VERSION of Haruhi Fujioka!
To that end, I must say: CONGRATULATIONS!! You are AWESOME!!!
>w
Lol I want to go to a host club and be like Haruhi
But I don't think that would be a good idea ^.^"
you are so adorable!!! thanks for tell us how it were me and my friend will visit for sure =D
wish you all success *-*
i thought you were a host..
Wait: youre a boy?
Sounds like it was so coo. I went to Japan 2 times & stayed in Shinjuku. I talked to a few of the host in Kabukicho standing outside. My friend & I almost went inside of a host club. We missed our chance. I'm going to So. Korea soon...wonder if they have anything like that there. Really enjoyed hearing about your experience. You rock!
ok what the hell are u
What a rude question.
Fascinating. Thanks for the information.
You are ridiculously brave!!
Omaygash!! You went into a host club alone?!
I love all the quirkiness of Japan and I'm intrigued of experiencing a host club once too. But really... to get into all that (awkard place) all alone.... You're so brave!
lol you're really entertaining, I was constantly smiling watching this video xD
awesome, thanks for sharing!!!
Wow, that must have been an amazing experience. It's cool how they tried to speak English to you, I appreciate it when people make an effort to talk to me. And I'm sure you made an effort in Japanese too. I mean, the fact that you got there is enough to see the effort you put in.
thanks so much for this joey it must have been an amazing experiance i envy you but so happy for you to love to here peoples adventures in japan it would be great to go there some day
I looked up The Great Happiness space to watch it again and it recommended this video. It’s like I’m on old TH-cam again.
you are probably the most entertaining person in my life right now :) lol
Omg i love you, you're so genuine
You have so earned my subscription XP
Your videos never show up on my home feed.
I thought you didn't make videos anymore!
I'm so happy you don't even know
thanks for sharing :D i really enjoyed your story on host club
My gender isn't the focus of this video people! Gezz just stop arguing . Joey is Joey! My gender doesn't matter :'(
You always make me smile Joey:)
omigosh, I used you watch your videos when I was like 10, I was really happy and surprised when one of your videos popped up on my sidebar :D I didn't know you still made videos so I got a lot of catching up to do!
Cool vid!! Thanks! Very interesting!
I have never heard of a Host Club before. This sounds soooo interesting! :D Thank you for informing me and sharing your experience! :)
Joey, I am spending a month and a week in AP region and am having a blast. I love your sense of adventure! I went to a hostess club with co-workers in Roppongi. I didn't know they had host clubs too! I am glad you enjoyed yourself! Also,don't short change yourself, you are a beautiful girl!
This was so cute!! I'm glad you had a good time I wanna go to one now aha.
loovvve your vlogs. please do more of them! ^-^
just started watching your video, cause i always wanted to go to japan and i seriously love you! your funny
thank you for posting this, i was looking for a story covering the emotional impact on these hosts and your observations have been very helpful. The japanese culture is turning into something out of a Aldoux Huxley's 'brave new world' or ray bradbury's 'Fahrenheit 451'.
This is my first time watching your video, but you're really funny and have a cool personality. Thanks for talking about the host clubs I've always wanted to try going to one, now if only I can visit Japan someday...although I'm too nice and shy sometimes so I'd probably be one of those poor suckers getting conned into coming back more and more after getting charmed by them
oh my gahd your hair and everything about you is gorgeous! you are total host material :D
Very interesting. Sort of a modern take on the basic idea of the geisha.Saw another video showing the inside of 3 different places. Nice.
awesome! im wanting to go to a club too when i go to japan - sounds like you had a grand time
