But the "ikigai" the world celebrates is a little different from the everyday 生きがい that Japanese people actually feel — so where did that gap come from? By the end, you'll see that ikigai isn't a puzzle to solve, but something quietly waiting in your own daily life. 【My Instagram for Japanese Learning】 https://www.instagram.com/yosuke_teac... 【Onikanji】https://onikanji.com/?ref=yosuketeach...
