Ohayou Gozaimasu is the traditional Japanese greeting for good morning. This phrase opens a new adventure as travelers make their way from South Korea to Japan, one of the most sought-after destinations in the world. The journey begins at Incheon International Airport, departing on Korean Air flight KE 789 at 13:45 local time, and arriving at Fukuoka International Airport at 15:15.
Leaving from Gate 248, travelers board with specific baggage rules in mind: 23 kilograms for checked luggage and 10 kilograms for cabin baggage. The window seat, 42H, offers an immersive sky view, perfect for capturing the warm morning sunlight during takeoff.
In the air, passengers are served a delicious main course of Paris Baguette egg sandwich accompanied by crispy potato chips. Beverage options include Asahi beer, orange juice, coke, and freshly brewed coffee, making the flight not only comfortable but also enjoyable. Midway, travelers can request the yellow Custom Declaration Form and the white Disembarkation Card for Foreigners from the cabin crew to ensure smooth immigration clearance upon landing.
Upon arrival in Fukuoka, a banner reading “Welcome to Fukuoka” and highlighting motsunabe rakutenti welcomes guests. The city immediately reveals its calm, structured character. Directional signs guide travelers to the reserved taxi area, where classic-looking taxis wait. While the exterior of the taxis preserves a nostalgic charm, the interior surprises with technology—digital screens for both drivers and passengers. Uber Taxi is also available for those preferring app-based services.
The drive into the city continues through the Kitakyushu Urban Expressway. Toll gates operate automatically, a stark contrast to Indonesia’s tap-based system. The experience is smooth, quiet, and efficient, reflecting Japan’s well-known orderliness.
Arriving in Kitakyushu, a city within Fukuoka Prefecture, the journey turns into a cultural immersion. Buying food in Japan often includes a unique process, like ordering through vending machines or interactive screens. From savory onigiri to refreshing ice cream, snacks quickly become part of the adventure.
Convenience stores offer a treasure trove of unusual snacks and beverages. Whether it’s seaweed chips, bottled milk tea, or mochi desserts, there’s something for everyone. Along the streets and stations, vending machines are always nearby, offering warm and cold beverages, seasonal products, and even full meals.
Cash access is not a problem. Japan provides abundant ATM options compatible with international cards, allowing travelers to withdraw Japanese yen at any time.
This travel vlog captures more than just movement between countries. It reveals the ease, surprises, and quiet elegance of entering Japan. From the moment the plane lifts off to the moment the taxi reaches the urban streets of Kitakyushu, every second tells a story of culture, simplicity, and modern-day travel solutions.
