The Focused on Japan Podcast was created by me, Lindo Korchi. I’ve lived in Japan since 2019 and shortly became a social media influencer with 600K followers and 110M video views across social media. I created short, educational videos about Japan. As an extension of my brand, I decided to create this podcast to provide greater depth and value to foreigners who want to know more about Japan, the experience of foreigners here, stories of business owners, how people are finding their own success in Japan, social matters, news and alike.
