My Belief about Japanese People







Before I came to USM, I have never met any Japanese people before. The first Japanese people I met was my Japanese class teacher, Rika sensei. Before that, I am seldom approach to Japanese people or Japanese culture. Most of my beliefs are come from news, cartoons, television programs and dramas. I have only watched few Japanese cartoons and Japanese dramas like Doraemon, Conan, Dragon Ball, Long Vacation, Nodame Contabile and Hero. Therefore, this information gives me superficial impression about Japanese culture and Japanese people. It has a little bit hard for me to analyze my belief about Japanese culture and Japanese people. However, I would like to discuss about my belief of Japanese people from drama I have watched before.
My belief about Japanese people is most of them are dedicated to their job and enjoy in doing their job as well. This belief come to my mind when I watched a drama named . This drama is presented by Takuya Kimura, Takako Matsu, Hiroshi Abe and other actors. The drama is talking about the story of a public prosecutor, Kuryu Kohei (presented by Takuya Kimura) and his colleagues. Kuryu dresses casually and ignores standard procedures, but he is a hard-working and serious person while doing his job. He is a good investigator because he has brilliant instincts. He is being a good investigator not only because his brilliant instincts but his determination too. He is spending most of his time to investigate a case until he find out the truth. He is dedicated to his job. For once, he went to meet an old man who has amnesia and asked him questions every day for about 20 days. He hoped he can get some answers from that old man because he was the only one eyewitness of the incident he was investigating in.
Another character, Amamiya Maiko (presented by Takako Matsu) is an assistant of Kuryu Kohei. She is also a hard-working and serious person in dealing with her job. She is aiming to be promoted to the position of a prosecutor. Hence, she is studying independently in order to pass the Judicial Test. Besides of her hard-working, she is also willing to sacrifice her personal time to perform her job. For example, she let go a chance to attend to a concert of her idol because she thought that is her responsibility to complete the investigation. Hence, I find out that she is also a dedicated person to her job.
There are still 3 other public prosecutors, 2 assistants and 2 chiefs. Everyone is doing his or her job seriously. They work hard because that is their job and they realized that they have the responsibility to do it seriously. They have the power to investigate and decide whether someone has to be prosecuted or not. They believe great power come great responsibilities. They do it well and at the same time they are enjoy in doing their job. I believe that not only the public prosecutor are hard-working and dedicated to their job, but most of the Japanese people in any field with different working positions are do work hard, responsible and enjoy their job too.
