The priority seat issue in Japan has sparked controversy once again. Former Tokyo resident and celebrity Ou-Yang Jing shared insights on the proper etiquette for priority seats in Japan, emphasizing the importance of 'reading the air.' Ou-Yang mentioned four scenarios where giving up a priority seat is appropriate, highlighting the need to understand non-verbal cues. Priority seating in Japan requires passengers to be attentive to different situations, such as not necessarily offering seats to elderly individuals who do not approach the priority area intentionally. Additionally, using mobile phones near priority seats is strictly prohibited due to concerns about interfering with medical devices. Ou-Yang attributed recent controversies over priority seats in Taiwan to heightened urban stress and intergenerational tensions.
