As internationalization progresses, there are more families that live split between Japan and other countries for a variety of reasons. It can be hard to express their feelings so far apart... This program connects these feelings among family members by “delivering a present from the family in Japan to the family overseas.” The love and bonds of family are difficult to appreciate in daily life. Viewers will be reminded of the importance of family relationships through these stories of families living apart... Plus, with the excitement of world travel in mind, this program introduces various countries’ cultures and customs through the daily lives of people living overseas by visiting them in their homes. The two pillars of this program are “capturing the lives of Japanese people living overseas” and “interviewing the family members in Japan. ” As the face of this program, Tomomitsu Yamaguchi delivers videos to the family members in Japan and listens to their stories as they watch.
