”If you go to Japan now, it will be a disaster” ”It has finally begun” = Korean media reports

As Golden Week, a 10-day holiday weekend, has begun in Japan, people planning to travel to Japan this week should be cautious. Not only will accommodation prices be significantly higher than usual, but
This is because tourist spots in Japan are expected to be quite crowded. On the 29th, NHK and other media reported that "Narita Airport is crowded with people who are going to spend their holidays overseas."
"Not only that, but Haneda Airport and Shinkansen stations have been flooded with tourists since the morning," Kyodo News reported. Japan's Golden Week, which began on the 27th, will last up to 10 days until May 6th.
During Golden Week, Narita Airport is expected to see a 30% increase in the number of people entering and departing through the airport, reaching 835,200 people.
Meanwhile, the number of Japanese tourists visiting Korea during this period is expected to increase significantly. Last month, the large Japanese travel agency JTB announced that it had booked a tour for over 2,000 Japanese tourists.
According to a survey conducted by Zo, among respondents planning to travel abroad during Golden Week, the most popular destination was South Korea (20.8%).
However, Japan's Golden Week is considered one of the periods when Korean tourists should avoid traveling to Japan.
As this is one of Japan's most popular holidays, accommodation fees will be higher than usual, and not only will airports and Shinkansen trains and other modes of transport to other areas be extremely crowded.
In addition, it is necessary to check in advance, as some "delicious restaurants" may be temporarily closed.
