I’m so dumb I thought a hostess was a flight attendant
Number 1 Hostage in Japan...
It's fine you aren't dumb You're just innocent
I thought they were talking about Tv show hosts 😑
I thought she hosted parties or “managed” the girls in the establishment, silly me
You are not alone. I also thought the same 😂😂
"46k USD per month"
GOODBYE COLLEGE HELLO HOSTESS BAR
Lily C 🤔🤣😆
Not all hostesses make this much... The average one is indeed around 5k or 10k tops. She is the most popular one, and remember that half of her income is spent just for her clients !
😂😂😂
Hostesses study too about all the topics clients like to discuss, such as politics, sports, etc. They need to be Jill of all traits to be No. 1
I don't even make 6k a months.....
I actually feel like her countryside upbringing is probably what gives her an edge. She has that humble beginnings honest & straightforward attitude, accentuated by her upscale elegance. That combination is most likely refreshing compared to other citygirls that do like the guy described
Yeah because she's very pretty but she's not, like, the most drop-dead gorgeous in the world. But she's infinitely elegant, charming, and genuine, which makes her more attractive than other hostesses who might be younger and prettier.
Her honesty is still questionable)) she only hangs out with these men bc she makes money off them, remember. Possibly she is just a master manipulator
@@goombapizza6335beauty is in the eye of the beholder. She does have that charm to her, plus confidence helps a person look so much better
This interviewer asked such interesting questions that most of us wouldn't dare to ask but are secretly wondering, and she did it without giving off a judgmental feeling.
This is the kind of interviews I like... You don't insult the one you're interviewing just because it's not in the norm. A curious and respectful reporter that also knows his/her limit is a great reporter.
Hello Everyone its Hiroko from Asian Boss
I agree! She’s one of my favourite reporters.
I also like that she's balancing her questions, like talking about lowest point and best thing about her job, about her parents, and telling that she wants to be her customer (lol) it makes you feel the respect!
Exactly..I like the interviewer👍
anthony padila check his i spent a day with videos
she's that kind of girl you see in movies who's smart and a perfect hostess and then someone offers her an undercover job to take down a rich underworld mafia or smth
😂😂😂
🤭🤭🤭
😂
lmaoo factss
Lol
“I’m actually a big girl in roppongi” ok if she is a big girl then I’m probably morbidly obese in that neighborhood
Baby beluga
🤭😆😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
we'd all be considered obese there :D
When she walked out in that red dress, there was no way she should be considered big in Roppongi D: She looks absolutely amazing and her figure is perfect :O
Japanese thin is very thin when compared to the western idea. It is so because a lot of these women are short and petite naturally.
I was a hostess in New York City during my collage years at a restaurant. it's super odd that the meaning of hostess in Asia vs Europe/America is so opposite. my family and family friends and even my Korean landlord found out about it and had an "intervention" meeting with me, lol. I tried to explain my job was to sit reservations and take phone calls to help the maitre'd but they just wouldn't; take my word for it.
There are hostess clubs in LA & NY like this.
The word hostess comes from the french hôtesse which is the feminine form of hôte. The host is the person who hosts someone else, usually at their home or their establishment (hotel, manor, castle, restaurant, etc.)
Hence the asian interpretation of the word has lost its initial meaning and is now synonymous of prostitution.
Nah, I think this brand of "hostess" is a Japanese lingo and does not typefy the whole of Asia. Japanese are notorious for adapting anglocisms to term their various new, subculture inventions. I'd know because I spend a lot of time in India, and this concept of hostess doesn't exist here.
Hostess as used here does not really have some kind of Asia-wide interpretation. It's just a word, and Japanese made their own take on it.
Well, if you really think about it....wouldn't the "host/hostess" meaning in Japan /Korea seem more appropriate than from what you would do in the US/UK? They are literally hosting customers and making sure they're cared for and having a good time . how can being a host at a party or hosting a party seem to be completely different from working as a host at a restaurant. sometimes, English makes no damn sense.
@@nannerrammer just simply saying, regardless of the word interpretation, the meaning itself is very different in two continents. that's all.
Western interviewers should learn a thing or two from this lady. She really was a professional, no judgement no cheeky questions to bait interviewee.
In Spain there is a woman called Samanta and she has similar way of interviewing people
Yeah, westerners mostly pick a side and never stay neutral and give out personal opinions rather than general ones.
Sure and acting like a fan is oh so "professional". Smh
@@stoleethatsme she was professional in the sense that she made her interviewee comfortable and had relaxed conversations so she could open up more. Western interviewers are so interrogation-like and the interviewer rarely seems genuinely interested in the person
Dont be an idiot, always depends on context
She returns 40% of her income to the customer as gifts... This woman is a great businesswoman!
💜
She even returns with sex sometimes!
@@LuckyGnom uhh ok?
@@garucho5819 She literally says that lmao
How do we know she is telling the truth?
You see how genuine she is, and its interesting that the very first thing the customer has to tell about her, is not her beauty, but how kind and considerate she was, I think that hostess help a lot of people and when they're being treated in mutual respect there is no reason for them to not live great fulfilling lives, and she definitely deserves to stay no 1 hostess
Oh wow - She's so lovely and eloquent! I can completely see why she is #1 in the establishment. Really great job by the interviewer too; I was a bit shocked at how candidly she asked if the hostess had certain interactions with customers, but it was done in a very respectful manner.
It's all an act. She even stated that she buys her customers tiny gifts as an investment so they give her far more back.
The smile and the talk is all just to extract money from silly wealthy men. Lovely and eloquent is a disguise for cold and calculating.
@@jonathanliddane4144 that’s what westerns need to understand, don’t take anything by heart when japan say something.
@jonathanliddane4144 shes a businesswoman, thats the whole point of this interview lol I fail to see how any of that is bad
exactly the men have the money and get a service while she gets paid. its all a W all around. i dont get why this incel up their is so mad. LOL @@chillarypuff
@awp-erator4525 bc they forget that they don't actually need to hate every woman, they can just vibe instead. But they refuse to vibe 😔🙏😢
I can see why she's the number one hostess. She takes care of her customers and spends time in knowing them (like remembering their birthdays), and has a great and charming personality. The way she and the interviewer laughed together, they looked like long time friends.
Zarina Wang she obviously remembers it enough to take time to place it into her calendar and buy gifts for them when they come up.
She looks like a hot famous star thats the number 1. reason.
In Japan it is very common to put birthday (not just birthday, appointment and other events if it is important to them) in their calendar or even notes. A lot of my Japanese friends do this too
all i can see is stupid girl.
One of her customers said that she genuinely cares for them, and that she's always being herself. I guess that says a lot about her being the number one, regardless if she doesn't remember exactly when their birthday is and has to put it in a calendar.
"How much do you make a month"
"About 46k"
Every day it gets harder to find a reason to continue college
LMAOOOOOOOO
Well shes the no.1 hostess in Japan. If you are the no.1 in whatever you do, you sure as hell will be paid a lot.
IcyboyG yeah. If the job was really that “easy”, many more people would be doing it
I think these kind of jobs is not permenent as doctor i mean if her youngness faded she will stop being a hostess because these kind of jobs depends on looks alot
@@__-qo8kh if i made 46k a day i wouldnt give a a damn about my career in the future. I'd have enough saved to live a very comfortable life style from investments.
Well, that interviewer was so professional and human, this was one of the best quality interviews. Her kindness is marvellous. And Kurumi is really smart and beautiful, it amazed me, we surely can learn a lot from her.
Yo her honesty is amazing. I can see why she's successful. How bluntly and openly she replies to everything is really charming.
She said something so right "because this job pays off if you work hard".. not every job does that no matter how hard you work..
That's a really good point
@@PennyMsElite yuuup.
False. If you are fat and ugly, no matter how hard you work, no customer would spend money on you like they do on her.
@@howo357 Unfortunately, the comment didn't imply that everyone could do it. Every job has people that are more/less qualified
@@howo357 plastic surgery and the gym. Plus LOTS of makeup!
The true talent is that she can make anyone fall in love with her, even platonic. See *almost everyone that saw this video. We are charmed by her ability to be honest, interesting, beautiful, and makes the interviewer, or client, or viewer feel comfortable with her. That's skill.
SIMP
@@aninumnums5854 LOL
You actually have a point there
Eh
@@aninumnums5854 get outta here
This is like having a bunch of rich boyfriends, reverse harem, oh, she'll be like, "you're good, you made me happy, so you'll have a reward."
😆😆
I love her mannerism, she seems so kind and humble, and intelligent. Theres just something very likeable about her, I can see why shes #1.
I love how the interviewer and the hostess have such great chemistry. This was a great video!
Yes,i ship em.
I'm pretty sure the hostess has chemistry with everyone, which is why she's so successful as a hostess.
@@youoweadamn Amen. She is just very great with people and making people feel comfortable.
She is doing interview with her and if they don't have good chemistry how the heck could they interact in the first place? Not everyone is like narcissist Donald Duck Trump Aka Orange 👨👨👱👨
@@mboihk3796 Please don't.
Definitely she’s an asset to her employer, returning 40% to her customers by giving simple gifts was the best strategy to keep your customers coming.

It’s black-mailing to robe or attract the married or unmarried Customers and to use your beauty and body to charme or to make money
Shame on these types of sex-oriented en and women
Pls Study and Research the « Religion of Islam »
@@lailomasarvari5240 i mean, it's the men choice to go there, isn't it? Why are you only blaming the woman when the men have power to refuse. If you are marry, don't go to host clubs.
@@lailomasarvari5240 It's absurd to blame the woman. If men didn't want to go there they wouldn't. Obviously they do and are willing to pay for the company. Even though I'm female myself, I can very well understand why a man would want the company of a beautiful, non-demanding, and charming woman!
sarvari Lailoma wondering why you clicked this video if you had the choice not to 👀
@@lailomasarvari5240 did she mention selling her body. Hostess in a high class hotel is not about what you think, It's a different standard.
I work in customer service and my coworkers ask how I can be so nice to people after a while, and I always say that acting is more exhausting than being genuine. I try to have empathy for each customer and assume the best intentions and give them the benefit of the doubt. At the same time, there are days I'm more tired and have to pretend to be more chipper than I feel. Watching Hoshino interact with her client takes it to a whole other level. She's in the industry of being genuine and friendly, even with people she may not have a connection with. She has to find ways to feel like a friend but at the same time, she probably always has a certain part of her brain that is strategizing. She's an actress in a sense but one that needs to feel like it's not an act. That's hard to do day in and day out, her business would suffer if she appeared to not be feeling well or appeared to be in a bad mood or just a bit tired.
It's always refreshing to hear from a person who truly knows who they are and aren't afraid to show it. Hoshino Kurumi = True Boss. Captivating Story.
“I’d think about it.” I love how honest she is.
AYYYY WHAT U DOING HERE?!
Wooooo love your vids
PD what are you doing here??????
OMG HEY
Why are u here 😂 go react to my fave sm artists 💘 ty 😊
She so mature and cute at the same time. I understand now she isn't like "fake" or forced.. She is natural.
Yeah she makes good money.
-_- everything is fake . These clubs are ruled by the yakuzas and this girl is just selling "hostessness" to young preys. So sad people lack critical sense so much. She can't leave. She's number one because she's a good PR asset.
....i guess so, they get laid with their client too, so how come a big bussiness like this could running without a "power" in their back ?
@@backintimealwyn5736 so what? Stop being like that, people these days complain about everything damn -_-
@@backintimealwyn5736 yeah, crime has a hand in everything from the local laundromat to the white house, to gun shops and police stations its just a fact of life. Doesn't mean you still can't celebrate the good in life like this young lady.
Loved both of them for being so honest,warm,professional and not judgemental.
This is not an easy job like how lot of ppl think, ppl might think it just requires to entertain customers, but this woman has shown she got great emotion intelligence which allows her to succeed in this job; she knows her clients’ likes and dislikes, give clients bday gifts, shows affections and understanding when talking to her clients, she knows what to say or do to touch the soft part of men, this ability of interpersonal skills is sooo hard to cultivate, and to use it so fluently in real life is so hard, if you are even a little bit introverted you probably won’t do that well, the way you talk, the volume of your voice, all can make a difference, and she’s so good at that… this is certainly not an easy job
She is very charismatic. No wonder she is successful in what she's does.
I agree she is very charming... I wonder if she’s totally honest about how much she earns! It seems too much...I wonder how much the club earns?
@@GiGi-ky7ej You'd be surprised of how much rich people spend on such "entertainment". Don't underestimate.
Why
Yeah...I bet her parents are soo proud of her...😄...ah damn...at least she's not forced into it...I hope ...
@@kamysamaa lol you're one of those
the lady is so elegant and the way she carries herself hits different, i respect her so much
@@RezaulKarim-qk8xt lmaaaooo
@@RezaulKarim-qk8xt actually I got to know of simp through a video I saw jusst before this one.
and when I read this,mind said-*SIMP*
and when I looked out for reply here we go
Well, the hostess were trained to be mature and responsible there, not to mention their number 1 hostess
@@RezaulKarim-qk8xt you haven't touched a woman in 6 months.
@LankyAlpaca Wait what did the person say before?
I like how she is honest for most of the questions
It was a very calm and remarkable interview.. I am surprised by how both the interviewer and hostess were so calm and gave answers spontaneously. Great conversation skills. Great work
The reporter is very charming and respectful !!! She doesn't judge people who work in this kind of business and manages to earn the trust of her interviewees. Amazing person !!
Japan is all about respect
That’s why she got this job, she’s obviously choosen bcs her skills, them both are amazing women
Can our reporters on the west learn something from this ???
Jjk
@@istra70 okkk
what a professional woman. she has a magnetic energy !! i can't believe how charismatic she is. really hope she is doing as well or even better today !!
I think there is a lot of pain before she got to number one but she has such grace and dignity. The interviewer is wonderful too. No judgement.
Nice interview, I actually liked all the 3 personalities- the hostess, interviewer and the customer. All of them were so respectful to each other.
iT iz ALL aBt DA ReksP3Ct - logan paul (japan). LEL
Well, you know. It's Japan.
@@jvertido pff respect when you got to sell your life to live......
sariputraa you need to learn one as well. Just because you disagree with the way they live their live that doesn’t give you any right to look down others.
that's the Japanese culture for you
"What do you expect? We're human after all" Somehow I found that answer really down to earth and warm.
I try to explain that to the cop who arrest me in the strip club. "What do you expect? We're human after all!" And that is it! I got hauled up to the police station!
I love this honesty, its so pure and kind.
@@slothypunk lmao
@@slothypunk the most honest answer from all. thanks 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's what makes her the No. 1 hostess of Japan
This was very insightful ! Heard of hostess but never learned more about them now I see !! She was actually a very inspirational women the way she carries herself and answers things straightforward I hope I can learn from her also want to applaud the interviewer for asking the tough questions we all wanted to know bht would probably never ask
Rewatching this interview because the energy makes me feel happy.
Wow, totally hats off for Kurumi. Even with that face, that money, she is still very human. She's very honest, doesn't sugarcoat things or her viewpoints and genuinely cares about her customers. I feel it's really hard to come by people that are this down to earth and honest nowadays. No wonder she's #1. Respect
its the asian culture in general , you learn to respect and be a genuine person at very young age
Right, she's incredibly endearing.
@@hornpub7405 so opposite of LA culture
The virtuous woman is the kind of lady every honest or average man are longing & searching nowadays. That's why character will really rub off, especially in work. Totally a full encoré for Kurumi-san 👏🏻
Maybe she had a hard past? Pain is a good teacher to be thankful for what u have.
Her posture is incredible! I think that really changes her aura as well, it makes her seem very prim and proper :)
And maintaining them is soo hard and look at her heels 😩
I recently tried to slightly change just my posture (straight back, legs put together, eyes focused on the person I'm talking to) and it did wonder in how people perceived me? Relationship wise and professionnally wise. First attemps were a bit awkward but I was tired of being hunched (back paiiin) and not knowing what to do with my hands lmao
She makes herself very attractive.
@M S Her posture?
@M S sjw alert
What a brilliant women. Her honesty is super refreshing. Massive respect!
I already love that she talks clearly, softly, and slow but lovely.
Hiroko is my favorite Asian Boss interviewer. She's so natural and kind with everyone, makes them feel comfortable so the interview feels like a conversation. She's amazing!
1 hour documentary with Hiroko when?
Also her questions are onpoint!
I still remember the "I want to be peed on" girl from the other day lol
I totally agree!!!
She makes more than any of her customers. And her customers tries to show off and impress her ? She is good. Really good
That's why she's number 1
Bro the guy they interviewed spends 10k+ in a night, multiple times a month and is buying a 100k champagne tower
The people she meets on average make millions a year dude
Her clients spend 10k+ a night regularly they are most definitely making far more than 43k a month
its because its bit cold on the top especially in Japan.
Didnt she say she makes 74k a month though
this is still my favorite interview of all Asian Boss' interviews
The interviewer is reevaluating her life choices when she heard she makes $930 a day.
while she is very beautiful, I think its here sincere personality that made her No. 1. Many of the hostesses are beautiful in Roppongi but im sure many of them are jaded by the job or act fake for money. Her personality is very suited for this job.
While visiting a strip club, I observed that the woman having the most success wasn't the most beautiful or the hottest, but the kindest, the one who accepted and embraced men the most.
Agreed.
Exactly! They do not play the victim nor stay the victim.
Remove the makeup she'll look like a potato :)
@@chamsbach547 and?? The customer said himself that the way she acts it's what makes her no 1. And if you watched since the beginning; she started this interview without make up and only after some time she putted on. She already has a pretty and good skin (even if she mentioned about get plastic surgeries she's already very pretty).
I cracked up when her customer acted like the other hostess "lets pop some champagne" hahahahahahaha
12:00
Lara Alyssa same sis
that champagne must be $5k~$10k per bottle xD
@@BrunoMaskulado03 wtf I'd better drink every last drop of it
@@Cliffracer46 you'd eat the bottle too lol
@@guranad0 definitely
One of my favorite episodes of Asian Boss.
Is she on Instagram?
Very very enlightening ..such a different way to deal with this type of lifestyle ..she seems to really enjoy it and so respectful warm and fun.
I respect her as do the men it seems
That was so refreshingly honest.
She's so level headed. Even her customer was charming and funny, not the sleezy type you'd imagine. Tbh they look good together
Would a sleezy one even agree to being in an interview?
@@chuforeichi of course they would. They don't think they're being sleazy, they think they're / funny/ flirtatious.
@@wewillnevermeet of course they are not 🤣🤣, they are sleezy not stupid
well maybe all her customers are well mannered people. bcz sleezy people don't earn that kind of money to afford her.
LMAO@@wewillnevermeet
She is smart... She buys her clients gifts. Which makes them feel special..As most these guys don't have time to meet real women. They spend it all them hours on making money...
To be fair, it's a common practice to buy your clients gifts as both a host and a hostess. She does seem extraordinarily nice though, so I'm rather happy for her success
She is respectable woman it is rare to find a hostess not a gold digger.japan is a workaholic people they don't have time to relax and their population is old age maybe because they are the most expensive cities in the world so you have to work work.
And spend all money on hostesses, seems legit. Lol
Obviously no woman would marry such a man
No, they might be married, and /or have 1 or multiple girlfriends. They still go to hostess bars for their status, and to enjoy their ability to go to luxurious clubs
@@MeYou-vx9kf They are as*****
she seems so wholesome and genuine thats so rare in the industry
The best interview i've ever seen. Thanks, for both of you!
I really like Kurumi. She radiates sympathy and charisma and is confident about herself. Plus she's gorgeous. She does what she wants and isn't afraid to say it. Respect ! Great interview
Stéphanie@ don't think she's a bit sad ? Or tired. I felt horribly about her, and the story about her parents broke my heart.
That’s just the Japanese style of reserve-ness. Japanese people don’t wear their emotions on their sleeves like Americans.
No
I really like how the interviewer ask her questions that's not really offensive to hear... like just a friend who's casually talking with such matters 😊
Agreed! I was just getting distracted by how often the interviewer played with her own hair.
i kinda disagree, but we have different perspectives i guess
A lot of people could take the interviewer kinda offensively I'm glad that the hostess is a kind hearted person and just laughs it off and is honest.
@@justapersonlastname8yearsa109 yeah... Even I thought the interviewer was offensive and judgemental in some places, though she didn't show it directly. But I could feel her judging her.
@@nouralde3592 it doesn't. If you watched the whole interview, she said that having sex or not with client is completely up to her since they only tipped her to drink together and talking.
Places that force hostess to have sex is brothel with 'hostess club' as a mere front, I think.
4:14 She is so honest and genuine with her responses.
I know that many people think of hostesses as some kind of easy women but to be honest I've always believed that they're doing a great job, many men especially hard working single ones need someone to listen to them and comfort them from time to time, it's not necessarily sexual they just want someone to listen without judging them, maybe give an advice from time to time, it's actually too sweet of these women to be there for them.
She said all of them want sex.
I dont see anything wrong with it because customers know or should know it´s all fake, but well, yeah, even if people say she is genuine she is not really genuine because she will be nice with any customer, even the ugly and unpleasant. But yeah, it´s customers to blame if they actually believe she is being genuine, because in reality she is kind of an actress.
@@vanessaruiz4705everyone is acting. Its just they need to act like they are good at listening. Thats all.
Y'all are getting the wrong idea. She makes 46k a month only because she is the NUMBER ONE. Not just cuz she's a hostess at some fancy bar. So don't be stupid and joking about quitting college to become a hostess. Being the absolute number one in pretty much any field earns as much as her or higher. Doesn't have to be a hostess. Then you will probably think becoming a number one hostess is easier than becoming number one in sth else. But it's really not. Every occupation has it's own difficulty and becoming the top in any field is equally difficult regardless of the field.
Dude they know. They re just kidding
@@mirelamitrescu8437 dude dont get the joke
Well this is actually a good and motivational PSA
I'm sure your message saved one of these people on here ..... If it didn't then you can take credit for saving me, I almost quit my job to become a 40k+ a month hostess
You can make good money as a hostess, but you have to work hard to do it like anything else that makes good money. Most those people are joking, but someone might be like "wow that's easy."
She's a savvy business woman. She knows what she wants, and has the confidence to execute. Cheers to you!🥂
she's not a business woman; men talk filth to her while they're drunk and away from their wives , and she smiles and giggles to get her hands on their money.
i guess not really something to praise when capitalist 'business' is killing their populace quite literally leaving people so exhausted they die in the streets. so... yay?
Timmuh thats still a form of business whether your morality likes it or not.
@@lloydbaltazar1095 so is prostitution.
@@timmyg44 lmao gtfo of here we already know you don't like her. Let others have what they want.
She's so honest and direct to the point. I salute her.👏👏👏
The interviewer asked such good questions my god. They made conversation with each other so naturally it’s great to watch. The customer was also really generous to have the interview cut into his private time with the hostess. And he answered the questions well too. Everyone here is so likeable
her one-day pay is higher than my one-month pay
It more than my parents yearly salary
Right!?? Lol
I guess it's time for you to move to Japan and become a hostess. :P
@@glassheart4121 more than my parents yearly salary too
More than my yearly salary too.
Loneliness is a prosperous market
Well said.
*sighs*
ilovepork and chicken thats deep, so true💯
This got real
ilovepork and chicken this kind of stuff would exist even if there weren’t those ‘lonely’ people. Men never or usually find this kind ego boosting, laid back and fulfilling experience among everyday lives.
the interviewer was so clever and respectful it was a relly good interview
I feel like she's got a leg up because she is from a smaller town, and you would think she must have been brought up a little differently than some of the others. Maybe a more warm, genuine personality than some. It's great that she can leverage that to benefit herself and her clients!
I did not feel any degradation whatsoever in this whole interview. The interviewer was a chill curious cat.
No comments? Okay
@@boorave replies you mean ? lol
@@michellecampbell1926 yeah lol
idk, I found the bit about 100% looks, no words to you at all if youre ugly, pretty degrading.
I mean... I felt degradation in the fact that she was mostly lying, to the interviewer and or to herself. How much do you think she's bringing to the club, if her cut is 45k per month? And do you think she really "choses" who she has sex with, for that amount of cash ? That she wouldn't get fired immediately if she suddenly refused to "honour" clients ?
For me she gave a perfectly clean and corporate interview, within the workplace too. With all the glittering and smiles and politeness and brainwashing/conditionning (probably self-imposed too).
That is as degrading as any prostitution is, imo.
Hostess: *Actually I can’t wear those anymore because I’ve gotten fat*
Me: *breathes air and Gaines 30 pounds*
For real tho 😭 I was like girl where?????
Fat isn't true, but she has probably gained weight. I'm more surprised that she manages to stay in shape actually.
What part of her is fat? No part.
WakeupGrandOwl her neck and arms. But she’s old now but doesn’t look too bad
I'm pretty sure your inhaling more than air
I see why she is number one, she looks super easy to talk to, if you have a hard day and such. Jsut makes you feel at home. eather very good acting or just super cute girl ^^
Pretty obvious why shes the #1 hostess. Shes painfully honest with her clients and herself, cares about her clients and isnt an act.
The men with enough money to go to places like this all the time, spend their entire lives dealing with people putting on fronts or smiling whilst scheming behind their back. Relaxing with some alcohol and a girl who cuts the BS from your life is probably very cathartic.
Painfully honest? You never met a german xD
@@auraluna7679 yep I agree. Those germans sure do hate the gypsies.
@@baamonster2 I shouldn't have found that as funny as I did. I'm slightly ashamed but still very amused. :-)
That's a genuinely insightful take on her job. She found her niche.
@@auraluna7679 I don't know if your from Germany or not but you're really wrong with this. Most people here will always smile at you but will talk about you behind your back because they don't have anything better to do. It's disgusting and the stories you will hear are for the most part made up and are rumors created with the only intention to hurt somebody
(I'm obviously German, that's why I'm ignoring the fact that you were joking)
Wow, I really like her jokes, hints, charisma.... no wonder she is no. 1. I appreciate her presence, and I'm a girl!
shes professional
What does you being a girl have to do with anything 💀

“and i’m a girl!” 😭😭😭 well me too but i’m also a lesbian so where do we go from here lmao
completely agree as the guy some people are just fake and it shows others are themselves
I love everything about this video. Especially Kurumi's energy.
I love the honesty between the interviewer and the girl, the interviewer was so great even the tough or sensitive questions was asked in a curious manner not in a very formal/professional way. And the girl was really true to herself and proud of her work, even the customer was great and honest too!
They're basically modern Geisha. Geisha entertain using conversation traditional music, song, dance and party games. Hostesses do the same but with the modern equivalence.
i'd say they're more like modern Oiran considering that the hostess can choose to sleep with the customer, which Geisha didn't/don't do.
@@wonderlandartwork3579 Like any work of this nature I think the lines are more blurred. I would still say Hostesses are more like Geisha than Oiran. Sex isn't in their job description or what is expected of them. It's up to the Hostesses and Geisha whether they engaged in sex with the client or not. There were instances where Geisha did choose to/or were pressured into having sex with clients, especially if it was an important client or if they simply liked the client enough. Hostesses, like Geisha are not professionally trained to pleasure with sex. The most they get told in a professional capacity is to lay on their backs... If they did train in that area it counts more as extra curricular studies.
Plus for Geisha there was the practice of "Mizuage" coming of age ceremony when a Maiko (trainee Geisha) graduates to becoming a senior maiko. This ceremony was auctioned off by the Geisha House, the highest bidder would become the patron/sponsor of the ceremony and had the right to take the virginity of the Maiko before she becomes senior Maiko. Modern day Geisha nolonger have to go through the sexual part of this ceremony sine prostitution was made illegal in Japan. By the same token modern Japanese Hosts and Hostesses don't sell off their virginity. You could remain a virgin if you want and still do the job of a Host/Hostess.
Oiran are more like high class escorts/prostitute (and strippers, celebrity Burleque dancers like Dita Von Teese or even pornstars). Again sex isn't nessesarily part of their job description, but it was more heavily implied and more expected of them. Yūjo were your common brothel prostitutes.
@@wonderlandartwork3579 That's up for discussion, though. I am quite sure that a lot of geisha did have sex with their customers - they probably just weren't that open about it because it was back in the old days. There was no media coverage about their profession in the hayday of geisha and maiko.
@@wonderlandartwork3579 Actually Geisha did/and do still have "sponsors" if they choose to. And they may or may not have sex as a part of their relationship/arrangement.
What is unique about Geisha is that no one would ever know what those details. Discretion is one of the primary qualities of a Geisha.
I wouldn't say that a hostess is a modern Geiko (or Geisha), first of all there are "modern Geishas" nowadays, especially in Tokyo and there are many differences between Geikos/Geishas and Japanese hostesses.
You first have to do years of training as a Maiko and live in an okiya (where only "employees" are allowed) before you can become a Geiko (Gaisha), and at the beginning a maiko is only allowed to accompany and watch the more experienced maikos and Geikos. Of course, the training also includes things a hostess does like pouring drinks and entertaining, but while a hostess does this on a normal social level, a Geiko must have a lot more skills, like Japanese traditional dances, songs and instruments (like the shamisen, shakuhachi and drums), followed by tea ceremony, literature, poetry and calligraphy. Besides that a maiko/geiko-style kimono is very difficult to put on correctly, and it's nearly impossible to get into one by yourself. There are so many layers, underlayers, overlayers and yards of expensive fabric that must be tucked and folded into place correctly (so it's not "easy" to take of and on, for fun times) and and the make up is also very precisely defined. Plus the training, the kimonos, the make up and living costs are very expensive and have to be paid by the Maiko/Geiko themselves (usually you pay it back when you earn money as a Geiko).
Yes if you reduce it to the simplest things, you can compare it, but I find that it downgrades the hard training and discipline of the Geishas quite a bit... Yes both entertain others and pour drinks and yes also a geisha (rather in old times) can have a patron/danna to help her with the training costs, but sexual contact with men would be so damaging for a modern geiko/geisha, that even if it would happen she would never talk about it (and certainly not while laughing in front of the camera).
She's not just beautiful, she gives off a genuine vibe that makes people feel comfortable and relaxed around her. I can see why she's so popular, like I just saw a 16 minute interview of that woman and already wanna be her friend!
yassssss
@UCTYpXP5KEhNtV3jdNaAUBdw So? How's that different from most youtubers? if you don't know their behind the camera persona anyways, you should have no reason to assume or judge them negatively either, it only goes to show what kind of person YOU are really :P
I am woman, I already want to be her friend. I like her genuine smile and laugh. Her nice personality. She don’t seems like a fake hostess who try too hard to show off and flirt in a most obvious ways. She is someone who seems like you can have fun talking for hours like a real friend.
FleetingDreams woah chill. the only things she was saying about the girl was positive whether u agree with her or not. she said nothing for u to bash her and for some ridiculous reason question her character from a FRIENDLY COMMENT! WoW...kinda shows UR character. Come on...when there r ppl on youtube actually commenting really hurtful and crappy stuff, thts when u should stand up to them and call them out if u like-don’t do it to those who are just being kind. it doesn’t garner tht kind of negativeness u bring..
shes not all that appearance wise
She seems fun and kind. It's no wonder people can get so generous with her. Maybe someday I also can converse and having fun with hostesses like her. Seems no money wasted because you could learn a lot and get truly relaxed.
Beauty is really in the eye of the beholder. I really find her stunning and classy when she still have this look. Maybe her preferred look that she has now after all her surgery is not on my ally. Respect that’s all I can give. All and all, her being able to spend a lot on reinventing how she looks is a way of somehow confirming his money she made on doing this job. Kudos to her perseverance and hardwork. For hardwork doesn’t always have to be physically exhausted, sometimes emotionally and mentally battling your way out on doing your job is something big and no one should be invalidated on that aspect. To anyone reading this, you’re doing a good job, you are loved and cared for, you might not see it with people around you but someone like me does. Always stay healthy everyone!
Her: I'm considered a big girl
Me: I guess I'm a whale then

yeah i can see almost no one is pointing out that statement, which I find outrageous and it shows this thinness obsession in Japan, that I wish was covered by Asian Boss in depth.
Don’t forget “.. in roppongi”
@cellee26 *chubby
She looks like CEO of a big company tho😍💓
My thoughts too. Very professional! LOL
Sam Rockwell YES - SHE IS the Company & CEO of her self.
Charismatic
hopefully she is saving and investing her money now, because when she gets older she wont be popular anymore
she is.
She's beautiful and smart at the same time. She's very honest and straightforward.
I respect her & her honesty. Japan is truly an amazing place
Never ever replace Hiroko-san. She's such a great interviewer!
She applied to be a hostess too.

A most extraordinary lady. I really appreciate her sensibility. And she has such a beauty from deep within. I hope she may continue to prosper.
Tell that girl to NEVER touch her face w a knife my God she's gorgeous
She did 😶
@@amaliathurayya4154 noo! Is there another video about her?
Too late
She already did to get that face 😂
pery amirzhay lmfao how do you know? don’t make things up lol
As a Japanese, I can tell immediately why she is so popular: she is genuine and down to earth. The way she talks is very sincere, and there is a sweetness to her. Many other girls talk in fake way to make people feel good about themselves, laughing insincerely and speaking in a high tone voice (commone in Japan). She is a real girl. And the fac that she's not stunning and not overly made up only works to make her more authentic.
Is it just me or does she appear to be very insecure? It could be difference of culture. Especially comment about changing alot of her face, it can see as an investment, but you wouldn't see it like that unless you value your looks so poorly.
@@MMOInformers That is the one thing that surprised me. Japanese people are not big on changing their bodies through cosmetic surgery, like in Korea. I feel that deep down she may be insecure, which is crazy, because she is a very beautiful girl. She said so herself that looks are 100% in this business, so she may feel pressure to look good.
@@steamedbuns6197 I posted the comment before the makeover, in the first few minutes. Yes, she is overly made up in the end. I actually think she's prettier in the beginning, more natural and simple.
That is barely a compliment while you also put women down
How good it is to make 46 k per month in Japan ?
She is so pretty and has such a genuine and warm look.
I Have Always Been Fascinated With Japanese Culture And People. Going To Japan Is On My Bucket List!
Hiroko also seems like she is talking to her friend. Bold, open non judgemental. Just getting the info without putting anyone down for their choices.
"Your hairdresser is a god!"
I wholeheartedly agree.
Totally agree
this is a very humble and honest interview, good job!!!
Hostess has a great personality and the interviewer does an amazing job!!!
You can see in her eyes she definitely is genuine. Her profession is still a taboo and yet she looks very kind and nice.
Is it? In districts where they are placed, host and hostess clubs are with large billboards and people (sometimes hosts or hostesses themselves) outside enticing people inside.
Gracie C. I don’t think it’s taboo in Japan but in the west it is
In Japan, a service-oriented patriarchial culture, hostessing is not taboo & many girls work at night jobs, as sadly they can earn far more than at any conventional jobs! Being popular & sought after is a major pride point in any group culture.
It's taboo only for gaijin (foreigner) bars usually dont let foreigners enter. Specially if you can't speak japanese.
Very beta comment
shes very frank! and it's also apparent she has this friendly vibe that makes you feel comfortable and relaxed talking to her! no wonder shes no 1
But she not very honest she already done plastic surgery before esp. the nose very obvious
@@xanzeo how does that make her not honest? did they bring up plastic surgery in the video and i just missed it or something?
@@inchw0rm well said, the subject was not plastic surgery, so this person's comment is inappropriate.
She has not done any plastic surgeries.. she said she hasn’t done any yet and I don’t think she would do it because a surgery required one week or one month to heal. As a hostess, if she wait that long until she start working again, she will lose all of her customers
tbh best interviewer ever like she listens her and carries out a pretty good conversation with her i like it :)
Japanese tourists and people are one of the most generous people in the world. They don't skip and give good tips. They are one of the most beloved tourists by taxi-cabs and ubers because they give high tips.
When she said “can we ask how much you make a month?” I was expecting like 5k and she said 46k 💀💀
@@benjerry1698 but 46k a month is a LOT OF MONEY. Like most (I would say 90%) of the people in the world would never earn that ,much!!
@@benjerry1698 well she's not a prostitute.. and don't be surprise with that amount of salary they get, because that job have a strict duration.. when u hit certain age.. it will not as good as now
After she hit her 30th birthday, her salary will decrease alot. Im pretty sure of that
You d b more surprised to learn how much $$$ she milked out of her customers wallet to earn her salary. It is a shady business. Let s just leav it at that.
