Apple opens Japanese YouTube site, uploads a bunch of new Japanese videos

[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_lDKon0bUM]

Apple, over the weekend, opened an new front on Google’s YouTube video service to host its Japanese videos. The site is verified by YouTube and has been up for 3 days but appears to have gone unnoticed.  None of the videos as of this writing have more than 100 views and there are only 49 subscribers. I have a feeling that’s a bout to change.

Update: Apple also launched a S. Korean Youtube Channel.

  1. Not to mention the verified Apple Korea, which I was the 2nd subscriber to :P

    I’m not asian, but pretty sure that Beijing is on China, not Japan.

    Interesting that the “loved” ad simply states that “Almost everyone who has an iPhone loves their iPhone” rather than specifically saying “99%” like the English ad. It’s a lot safer than making up statistics.

    While there is a link below the video that takes you to the Japanese site and shows the video below that with the man and boy on a plane, the video above that link and more associated with the title of the article ‘Apple opens Japanese YouTube site, uploads a bunch of new Japanese videos’ is not in fact Japan. It’s a video of two white girls running around China.

    It seems like it would be more appropriate to show this to travelers in the US, rather than Chinese people in their own country. Although I am familiar with Asian countries using foreigners to sell things. I used to be an English teacher in Japan for 4 years.
