A new local programme called "Jejak Jepun Bersama Zizan" is airing on Astro Prima. It is a travelogue based programme. It is hosted by Zizan, a comedian. The programme is produced by kyanite.TV and Astro. There are six episodes for the programme's run. In each episode he will visit interesting places in Japan while accomplishing his mission, for example becoming a samurai in while he was in Osaka. His main mission is to meet Ayumi Hamasaki, a popular Japanese singer.
I watched the first episode today at 7:00 pm. Astro Prima and its other channels on Astro are flexible and has many other airtimes for each programme besides the main airtime unlike free-to-air stations where they had to schedule each programme to once a week or maybe more.
In the first episode, Zizan went to Osaka via Kansai International Airport boarding on Air Asia X. While arriving at Osaka, he went to Rinku Premium Outlets. He stays at Fraser Residence Nankai Hotel.
The next day, he went to Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan. Later he went to the Osaka Castle, where he accomplished his task to be a Samurai (as I said earlier). Zizan learned that samurais are elite class warriors. He also went to the Floating Garden of Umeda Sky Building, the tallest building in Osaka. Floating Garden is the obesrvatory platform of Umeda Sky Building.
Since the filming for the programme occurred in early July, he had the opportunity to make a wish with Tanabata trees with wishes made by people written on paper hung in the tree. His wish is to have a Japanese girlfriend. Later, he went to Takimi Koji, a museum containing replicas of how Osaka looked like in the 1950s and 1960s. It is located at the lowest floor of Umeda Sky Building. At night, he went to Edoyaki Unagi Hishitomi to taste unagi (Japanese eel). He also went to Ebisu Bridge Dotonbori, a shopping district in Osaka.
Before the end of the show, he reminded that if you want to visit Japan, you must make a visitor visa at the Japanese embassy. The visa will be ready within 3 working days.
