In this episode, I explore the question: under what conditions can long working hours be justified in Japan? I talk about the restaurant industry, where staff shortages and ambition often drive people to extreme overtime, and I recall the old “Can you work 24 hours?” culture that once shaped Japan. I also compare Japan with Europe, where long vacations and family time are valued. While I respect working hard for a dream, I warn that endless work can lower efficiency and identity balance. I ask listeners to reflect: is success about overwork, or about living fully?
