This time: obtaining permission. Tran Van Vuong from Vietnam designs fishing rods at a sports equipment manufacturer. Since transferring to the Japanese headquarters of his company in 2018, Vuong-san has become a popular member of staff. However, when asking for permission, he tends to use daijoobu, when yoroshii would be more appropriate. Vuong-san will tackle a workplace roleplay and learn how to ask for permission. Today's kanji is "sakini." And in After 5!, we visit a super sento.
