As the episode unfolded, the questions veered into increasingly unexpected and comical territory. However, it was Eric who found himself in the spotlight when Jonathan Thona delved into a particular incident from his time in Japan.
With a touch of humor, Thona playfully accused Eric of "stealing electricity" during his Japanese escapade. But the reality behind the accusation was far from what viewers might have initially imagined.
The members of THE BOYZ wasted no time setting the record straight. They embarked on recounting the tale of a cultural misunderstanding that had pushed Eric to the brink of a potential encounter with law enforcement.
The group elaborated that this unspoken rule is deeply ingrained in Japanese culture, and it's not uncommon for foreigners to be unaware of this custom. Sunwoo further emphasized that it's an integral aspect of Japanese norms.
Eric concluded with a humorous twist, reflecting on how he had unwittingly and momentarily become a "thief" due to this misunderstanding.Fortunately, Eric's explanation and heartfelt apology diffused the situation, averting the involvement of law enforcement.
The episode offered a lighthearted yet insightful glimpse into the complexities of cultural nuances, even in seemingly trivial matters, bridging the gap between different cultural perspectives.
