00:00The reason why I live in Japan.
00:07Today's guest has arrived.
00:12Get creative, get aggressive, get it done.
00:17Be flexible and active.
00:23In Japan, if you cross the ocean, you cross it with tofu.
00:29I've lived in Japan for 10 years.
00:34Far East Japan.
00:36Why do I live in Japan?
00:41Because I'm a foreigner, I can see this beautiful country.
00:45The charm of Japan.
00:50We're going to find out.
01:10Shinanomachi, north of Nagano prefecture.
01:15If you look at the houses in this deep city...
01:25Is that a sword or something?
01:28They're all foreigners.
01:31This is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
01:34I go to the gym in Niigata.
01:39But it's pretty far away.
01:44I live around here, so I practice here by myself.
01:49Kashino Pride.
01:52I've seen it a lot.
01:54Sakuraba.
01:56I like Sakuraba.
01:59Since the gym is far away, he practices with his Jiu-Jitsu team.
02:06Who is today's guest?
02:13After practice, they all clean up.
02:17Actually, this is the place.
02:28Cafe.
02:30It's fashionable.
02:32It's delicious. I drink a lot.
02:35After practice...
02:39Everyone is very busy.
02:42It's time to relax before work.
02:47Among his friends, this Japanese-speaking person is the star of the day.
02:53Good job, coffee.
02:56Derek Gray, 33 years old. He lives in a remote area.
03:02His hometown is about 9,000 kilometers away from Japan.
03:09Urbain, California, United States.
03:14It's a warm place.
03:17He was born in 1991 to his father, a lawyer, and his mother, who worked at an IT company.
03:26He grew up as the youngest son of three boys.
03:32He loved cooking.
03:36Now, for some reason, he lives in Nojirikohan, Nagano Prefecture.
03:42How is it to live in a snowy city like this?
03:45It's hard, but it's fun.
03:50You can ski and snowboard.
03:54You can swim in the lake in spring and summer.
03:59There are a lot of fun things to do all year round.
04:03This is the best place.
04:06It's a wonderful place.
04:09Derek found the charm of Nojirikohan.
04:13It's very beautiful.
04:16There is a shrine in Bentenjima.
04:20You can go there by kayak in summer.
04:25It's beautiful in summer, of course.
04:28It's snowing.
04:30I think it's more beautiful.
04:33Nojirikohan is located in a plateau 657 meters above sea level.
04:38It is also known as the lake where Nauman's fossils were excavated.
04:43You can do marine sports such as kayaking and wakeboarding in summer.
04:49Tourists can visit Nojirikohan for a year, such as fishing in Wakasagi in winter.
04:56There is a cafe in Nojirikohan where he practiced Jujutsu.
05:03When I moved here from Tokyo,
05:08I was affected by COVID-19.
05:11I wanted to eat real American food,
05:19but I couldn't go home, so I made it myself.
05:25He couldn't go home because of COVID-19.
05:28He missed the taste of his hometown.
05:31So he opened a cafe by himself.
05:35The taste of his hometown that he wanted so much is...
05:55This is a real hamburger.
06:01This is an American-style smash burger made by pressing the meat on the iron plate.
06:10It looks delicious.
06:12Nojirikohan was made like this.
06:15Thank you for your hard work.
06:17Let's eat.
06:19Thank you for the meal.
06:22Thank you for the meal.
06:26I'm happy.
06:28It's good.
06:29It's really delicious.
06:31The point is that the meat is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
06:39The bread is also handmade every day.
06:44The taste of this burger is my own taste, but it tastes like American food.
06:53Why is Mr. Derek selling a Californian hamburger at a snowy Nojirikohan?
07:01He has lived in Nojirikohan for 5 years and is familiar with his hometown.
07:07I'm going to my friend's house.
07:10This is Japanese sake.
07:14Is this your friend's house?
07:16Yes, it is.
07:17This is a 200-year-old house.
07:20There was a cool friend who supported me to move.
07:26And...
07:29I feel amazing.
07:31Amazing.

08:06In Japan, there are many hamburgers of various manufacturers.
08:13Mac Lotteria, Mos Burger, Burger King, etc.
08:18Did you eat a lot of hamburgers in Japan?
08:21Of course, I ate a lot.
08:23It was delicious.
08:25In Japan, there are many hamburgers with thick meat.
08:30I ate a lot of hamburgers in Japan.

08:51And it smells good.
08:54Is that more delicious?
08:56It's delicious.

09:23I want you to open a restaurant in Japan.
09:25No one goes to buy it because the noodles are out of stock.
09:27Is there anything else?
09:29American hamburgers have a lot of meat on top.
09:34It looks delicious.
09:36Meat on top.
09:38American hamburgers.
09:39It's too much meat.
09:40Our main dish is not hamburgers.
09:44I want it to be ready as soon as possible.
09:46I still have a long way to go.

09:56Here it is.
10:00The direction is quite different.
10:02It looks delicious.
10:04It looks delicious.
10:08The strangest thing is
10:10that the warm California

10:18Derek from California
10:20is wondering why
10:22they open a burger shop

10:42Yes.
10:44It's a residential area,
10:46but there are many
10:48high-tech companies
10:50like Silicon Valley.
10:52There are also many Japanese companies.

11:14Yes, I have.
11:16This is Maru-chan's
11:18American version of instant noodles.
11:20It's not sold in Japan.

12:18Yes, it is.
12:20My father
12:22was in the military.
12:24After that,
12:26he became a lawyer.
12:28A lawyer from the military?
12:30That's amazing.
12:32Next to him is
12:34his brother, Wyatt.
12:36Yes, he is my brother.
12:38Donald is
12:40on the right.
12:42It must have been hard
12:44to raise three boys.
12:46Yes.
12:48They eat and fight.
12:50Yes.
12:52When I was young,
12:54I helped my mom with cooking.
12:56Did you like cooking
12:58when you were little?
13:00Yes, I liked it.
13:02When everyone was happy,
13:04I was happy, too.
13:06You must have been happy.
13:08Did you eat Japanese food?
13:10Yes,
13:12like shabu-shabu, sushi,
13:14and yakitori.
13:16Really?
13:18Yes.
13:20My father was a lawyer
13:22in Toshiba.
13:24Japanese customers
13:26often came to my house
13:28to eat Japanese food.
13:30I see.
13:32I remember that.
13:34Derek,
13:36when you were little,
13:38what was your impression
13:40of Japanese people?
13:42They often came to my house
13:44and gave me souvenirs.
13:46I was very happy.
13:48They gave me
13:50Pokemon and sweets.
13:52Really?
13:54I thought
13:56Japanese people were kind.
13:58I see.
14:00In 2009,
14:02Derek graduated from high school
14:04and went to a cooking school.
14:06You liked cooking,
14:08didn't you?
14:10Yes, I did.
14:12I studied French
14:14and wanted to be a chef.
14:16How is it now?
14:18I'm making a hamburger
14:20in Nojiriko.
14:22What happened?
14:24He started a part-time job
14:26at a Chinese restaurant
14:28to gain experience.
14:30However,
14:32there was an incident
14:34that broke his desire to be a chef.
14:36FBI and SWAT.
14:38SWAT?
14:40What happened?
14:44The first restaurant
14:46was a Chinese restaurant.
14:48What?
14:50Chinese restaurant?
14:52All of a sudden?
14:54There were many problems.
14:56So, I quit.
14:58What kind of problems?
15:00The owner did something
15:02bad.
15:04When I went to work,
15:06the FBI came.
15:08What?
15:10That sounds interesting.
15:12I want to dig deeper.
15:14Was the Chinese restaurant bad?
15:16Yes.
15:18It was about money.
15:20I don't know.
15:22I was preparing.
15:26There were many FBI
15:28and SWAT.
15:30SWAT?
15:32SWAT?
15:34What happened?
15:36SWAT?
15:38Something is going on.
15:40The owner killed
15:42someone.
15:44What?
15:46It's a serious case.
15:48It's a serious case.
15:50To be exact,
15:52the owner killed someone.
15:54Yes.
15:56So, I quit.
15:58I thought
16:00this kind of thing happens
16:02in the restaurant industry.
16:04So, I quit.
16:06Derek was traumatized
16:08by his dream.
16:10He gave up being a chef
16:12and went to university
16:14to learn marketing.
16:16Derek went to university
16:18and came here
16:20in the summer of 2013
16:22when he was a sophomore.
16:24It's Kamata.
16:30Why did you come to Japan?
16:32The oldest brother
16:34moved to Japan.
16:40What did your brother do in Japan?
16:42Where did you go?
16:44I went to Paris.

16:56I couldn't drink alcohol
16:58anywhere.
17:00I decided to move to Japan.
17:02It's fun.
17:04In California,
17:06you can't drink alcohol anywhere.
17:08I can drink alcohol
17:10in a bar.
17:12But I don't go to festivals.
17:14This is your brother.
17:20He seems to enjoy it.

17:40and Okonomiyaki.
17:44Did you go to a hamburger shop?
17:46I went to McDonald's
17:48and Mos Burger.
17:50Mos Burger was delicious,
17:52but it was too dirty.
17:54It was fluffy.
17:58The product development department
18:00is working hard for Japanese.

18:50How was it?
18:52The people who lived there
18:54were good people.

22:05Hello.
22:06Shining down.
22:08Nice to meet you.
22:09Nice to meet you.
22:11This is Naumanzo.
22:14Nojiriko was here a long time ago.
22:18Naumanzo was discovered in 1948 in Nojiriko, a town in Shinano.
22:25There is a museum near the lake, and it is also famous as the town of Naumanzo.
22:33Have you ever had a hard time living in a snowy town like this?
22:37It's hard.
22:39Snowing is the hardest, but I like snow, so it's okay here.
22:45It's beautiful.
22:46This is Lake Nojiriko.
22:50There is everything here.
22:53There is a lake, a mountain, a hiking trail, and a ski resort.
23:00There are many beautiful places.
23:03That is a boat from Wakasagi.
23:06Yes.
23:08When can you go fishing in Wakasagi?
23:10I can go fishing in the lake.
23:13Have you ever done it?
23:14I have never done it.
23:18In addition, there is a unique hot spring spot in Nojiriko.
23:24This is a job for an entertainer, isn't it?
23:26That's right.
23:31It's snowing a lot.
23:33I'm going to enter the sauna.
23:40It's close to the lake.
23:43It's snowing and I'm in the sauna.
23:46It feels good.
23:57This is Ikudai, my brother.
24:01He is my friend.
24:04Mr. Ihara is a tour guide.
24:08He is a friend since he came to Nojiriko.
24:18A sauna where you can enjoy the hot spring.
24:26It feels good.
24:30It feels good.
24:31It feels good, doesn't it?
24:33You are good at bringing water.
24:48It's pepper.
24:51You are sweating.
24:52It's freshly boiled.
24:55What did you think when you heard that Mr. Derek was running a hamburger shop?
25:00In fact, the speed at which people from overseas come to Nojiriko and the places where they can receive them are different.
25:18Near Nojiriko, there are many ski resorts such as Myoko-san and Kurohime-yama.
25:23Tourists have increased rapidly in recent years due to the demand for inbound.
25:28I think it's a good place because everyone in the area is connected and has a good influence.
25:38In fact, it's the first time for Mr. Derek to go to a winter sauna.
25:42He is looking forward to the hot spring sauna from here.
25:45Oh, I see.
25:46Let's take off the poncho and go in.
25:49Take off, take off.
25:50Does water go in?
25:52I'm sweating at first, so it's cold.
25:57Can you pour water?
26:00It's cold.
26:08It's water, isn't it?
26:12In the water?
26:13In the water?
26:21He ran away.
26:22You don't look like a foreigner at all.
26:25This is the work of an entertainer.
26:27That's right.
26:31Was it cold?
26:36It was too cold.
26:38I thought I was going to die.
26:41Did you think you were going to die?
26:43After warming up for 10 minutes, he went outside again.
26:48I think I'll be fine this time.
26:51It's the best.
26:53It feels great.
26:55That was no good.
26:58It was too cold.
27:00But I've calmed down.
27:02I'm ready.
27:05Did you feel better than you said?
27:07I don't remember.
27:09Derek wants to introduce his friend.
27:14I'm going to my friend's house.
27:17This is Japanese sake.
27:19Japanese sake?
27:21Yes, it's Japanese sake.
27:23Cheers.
27:28It's snowing a lot.
27:34Is this your friend's house?
27:35How old is this house?
27:37This is a 200-year-old house.
27:41It's snowing a lot.
27:47Is this a 200-year-old house?
27:48That's right.
27:50Isn't the snow crazy?
27:53It's snowing a lot.
27:56It looks like it's going to collapse.
27:58But it's strong because it's a house.
28:01That's right.
28:02This house has survived.
28:05That's right.
28:07What's going on?
28:09It's dark.
28:11Excuse me.
28:16Mr. Suzuki, 72 years old, lives in a 200-year-old house.
28:21Mr. Toyota, 77 years old, lives in the same village.
28:25They are friends of Mr. Derek.
28:27The air is white.
28:29It's indoors.
28:52It looks delicious.
28:54If I eat it here, it will be delicious again.
28:57It looks like it's going to die.
29:03It's making a sound.
29:05That's right.
29:07It's getting hot.
29:09How did you feel when you first came here?
29:13I was like, who came here?
29:17When I first came here, I didn't understand anything.
29:23First of all, it's a way of getting along with people.
29:27Let's go home today.
29:28When Mr. Derek just moved to Nojiriko, he had a hard time getting along with people.
29:35Americans are strong, aren't they?
29:40On the contrary, Japanese people are weak.
29:43I don't know what to do with this good relationship.
29:49Even though he was lost, he actively participated in local events and deepened his communication.
29:56He cleans the mountain path next to the road.
30:02He doesn't even look back.
30:05He does a very tough job.
30:10That's why he's very helpful.
30:13That's right.
30:15He's a very good person.
30:17He's great.
30:19That's true.
30:21He's still worried.
30:22He's still worried.
30:24He's working hard.
30:26Everyone is doing their best, so I want to do my best, too.
30:33When you go to the countryside, you feel like you're helping each other and living together in the community.
30:39You have to greet each other properly.
30:42You have to follow the rules of the community.
30:47You have to do that properly.
30:52Your seniors helped you, didn't they?
30:55Yes, they helped me a lot.
30:57They're your friends in Shibuya.
30:59Derek, you should let them go.
31:03But it's okay.
31:06They're stronger than old Japanese buildings.
31:12By the way, are you single?
31:16I'm married.
31:18Are you married?
31:20Yes, I'm married.
31:22This is Derek's family.
31:25They're cute.
31:29Where did you meet your wife?
31:32When I first came to Japan, I met her at a restaurant.
31:37Since you came to Tokyo?
31:39Yes, I talked to her for a while.
31:41You hit on her, didn't you?
31:43That's right.
31:45You started dating and went to Nojiriko together.
31:49Yes, we got married in 2018.
31:53Derek's job was unstable after marriage.
31:57In the meantime, his wife committed a heinous crime.
32:03I bought a house, but I didn't say anything to my wife.
32:09To your wife?
32:11She was very angry.
32:14She was very angry.
32:17Did you buy a house without consulting your wife?
32:21Well, it's common for men.
32:24Surprise!
32:27In addition, as soon as he moved, he was affected by COVID-19.
32:32He couldn't move from Nojiriko.
32:35I couldn't go back to America.
32:38Of course, I wanted to eat real American food.
32:43I wanted to eat American food.
32:45But there was no restaurant around there.
32:49So I thought it would be better to make my own burger.
32:54I made my own burger.
32:57I sold the burger at the ski resort.
33:01Everyone said it was delicious.
33:04When I was able to practice in the kitchen, I opened a restaurant.
33:10I made a good-looking burger.
33:13Mr. Delick, who had a good reputation in the kitchen, opened a restaurant in Nojiriko in 2022.
33:23I visited Mr. Delick's restaurant.
33:29Mr. Delick's restaurant is located near Nojiriko.
33:32In addition, the restaurant has a calm atmosphere like an American lodge.
33:43It's fashionable.
33:52I make bread here every day.
33:56I made my own bread.
34:02It took me a long time.
34:04I made bread every day for several months.
34:08It's a little different.
34:10It goes well with the burger.
34:14What kind of sauce is it?
34:16What kind of sauce is it?
34:18What kind of sauce is it?
34:20Of course, I use mayonnaise.
34:22Worcester sauce is also included.
34:24It has a umami taste.
34:36I want to eat beef.
34:42I use salt and pepper and dried mushrooms.
34:46Dried mushrooms?
34:48Mushrooms and meat have a strong taste.
34:53Mushrooms and meat have a strong taste.
35:09It's amazing.
35:22It's amazing.
35:28Japanese people are popular with everyone, including foreigners.
35:33I want to go there.
35:35After the restaurant closes, the family goes out for dinner.
35:41That's my brother.
35:47The family goes out for dinner.
35:52I asked her when she bought a house.
35:58I was desperate.
36:01I compared it with Tokyo.
36:03You were very excited at that time.
36:08You bought a house and showed it to me while driving.
36:14I was very angry.
36:18Then, here...
36:20Really?
36:22Derek's brother, Donald, also joined us.
36:26Brother.
36:29It's been a long time since you two ate together.
36:32That's right.
36:35I go to a restaurant every week, but I can't eat together.
36:39Because I'm always busy.
36:42You were lonely, weren't you?
36:44Yes, I was lonely.
36:45How was it?
36:49I don't want to be with you all the time.
36:53That's not true.
36:57It's love.
37:00They move to another country because of the scenery of Nojiriko.
37:04They are worried about people's relationship.
37:06The taste of the west coast of the United States is made by making efforts and overcoming COVID-19.
37:15How was your life in Russia?
37:18Russia was important to me from the moment I was born.
37:22I became an adult here.
37:29I had a child.
37:32I bought a house.
37:35I started my own business.
37:40I became an adult.
37:46Derek's favorite scenery
37:51This is my favorite scenery.
37:59This is my favorite place.
38:04I can see the lake, the forest, and the mountains.
38:10It has a great impact.
38:11I want to introduce Nojiriko to everyone.
38:42Nojiriko is a place where you can feel the beauty of nature.
38:47It is a place where you can feel the beauty of nature.
38:51It is a place where you can feel the beauty of nature.
38:55It is a place where you can feel the beauty of nature.
38:59It is a place where you can feel the beauty of nature.
39:03It is a place where you can feel the beauty of nature.
39:07It is a place where you can feel the beauty of nature.
39:11It's a place where you can feel the beauty of the mountains.
39:26Nojiriko
39:29It is a place to feel the minds.

40:18I have a family, so I want to do my best.
40:25I like this feeling.
40:28What do you think of Japan now compared to when you first came?
40:38When I first came, Japan was more open.
40:47But now I feel like there's a wall between foreigners.
40:57I see.
40:59So I want to change that.
41:03I want everyone to get along and do their best.
41:13Let me ask you one last question.
41:16Why do you live in Japan?
41:19The most important thing is my family.
41:25My sons, Yuko-chan and Donald.
41:31I have a good community in Nojiri.
41:38I want to build a better community.
41:43Thank you very much for your time today.
41:48Next, we'll take a look at the family's delicious meal table.
41:55This is the continuation of the dinner with the older brother and a little angry wife at a yakitori restaurant.
42:02I was surprised when I left Tokyo and came to Japan.
42:15I couldn't believe Yuko would come to Japan.
42:20Me neither.
42:22What do you think of living in a snowy country?
42:27If you live in a snowy country, it's a city.
42:30Donald came to Japan before I did.
42:37When I lived in Tokyo, I came to Japan in April.
42:42The snow in Japan was deeper than in Hakuba, Nozawa, and Chiyokogen.
42:51I cried when I came to Japan.
42:56It's perfect.
43:00I'm happy.
43:04Tokyo is fun when you're in your 20s.
43:11But when you're in your 30s, it's good to take your time.
43:19Tokyo was too small for me.
43:27A British woman in love with kimono.
43:33I got a gold thread from my eyebrows.
43:36Did you get such a level?
43:39Nine years since then.
43:42I don't think kimono has changed much, but there are more things.
43:47There's no end to it.
43:50The atmosphere of Kawagoe goes well with kimono.
