00:00The number of foreign tourists visiting Japan is the highest in the past, with 3,450,000.
00:09Kyoto is one of the most popular destinations.
00:15The city of Kyoto is famous for its bamboo trees.
00:26The bamboo trees are extensive and complex,
00:32and some are more than 200,000 meters wide.
00:38This is the pinnacle of craftsmanship.
00:44Japan's unique delicacy that harmonizes with the scenery while occupying the space.
00:54There are more than 50 types of bamboo trees.
01:01This is the first visit to Japan 7 years ago.
01:09I'm so excited to be here.
01:14Mark is selling bamboo trees in the United States.
01:21He lives in Seattle.
01:26I make bamboo trees here and send them to various places.
01:36I met David from the U.S. Bamboo Association 20 years ago.
01:42He is a master of bamboo.
01:46He has a 10-year career as a craftsman.
01:54I put a window on the Kenninji tree to see inside.
02:02What's more?
02:07This is the Nisugaki tree.
02:13In Japan, the frame is also made of bamboo.
02:18In the U.S., there are many people who want to keep it for a long time, so I attached an iron frame.
02:25I've never studied in Japan, so I'd like to learn the correct knowledge from the craftsman and teach it to all the employees.
02:37Mark loves bamboo so much.
02:42He goes to Kyoto, where the trees are vividly colored.
02:50What did he see first in Gion?
02:56It's a gun.
03:01Maybe.
03:04He ignores the gun.
03:09He walks around Kyoto while checking all the bamboos he sees.
03:17Actually, Mark has someone he really wants to meet.
03:24I'd like to meet Mr. Miki, a craftsman who made bamboo in the Japanese garden in Portland.
03:34In Portland, Oregon, there is a Japanese garden with authentic bamboo.
03:45The person who taught him was Mr. Miki, a bamboo craftsman.
03:53Mark fell in love with his bamboo.
03:57When he came to Japan, he wanted to meet Mr. Miki.
04:05When he told him his enthusiasm, he was pleased to meet him.
04:11Oh, my God. This is like Takigaki world. This is unbelievable.
04:16Takigaki world.
04:22Keninji. Keninji. Keninji-gaki.
04:28This is beautiful. Look at this.
04:33He is overwhelmed by the perfection.
04:39Hello.
04:43I'm Mark.
04:46Nice to meet you. I'm Miki.
04:50I was impressed by the Takigaki in Portland.
04:55Please let me learn how to make Takigaki from Mr. Miki.
05:01Thank you for coming all the way from the U.S.
05:07Mr. Takashi Miki, the 5th generation of Miki Chikuzaiten, was founded in 1947.
05:15He is a master craftsman who makes famous names such as the world heritage Nijo Castle and Kyoto Gosho.
05:25Amazing.
05:27All the Takigaki are exquisite and delicate.
05:35Takigaki have won many awards at the Golden Trophy.
05:40Takigaki in Kyoto, the Four Seasons Hotel, is a masterpiece.
05:48Wow.
05:51What did he show us?
05:59This is amazing.
06:01Beautiful, right?
06:03Unbelievable.
06:05This is the first time I've seen such a beautiful bamboo forest.
06:11After this, they need to train for 10 years.
06:15Bamboo cutting and making Takigaki.
06:20Wow.
06:22Amazing.
06:27Mark, the American who loves Takigaki, goes to Mr. Takashi Miki.
06:36This is amazing.
06:37Beautiful, right?
06:39Unbelievable.
06:40This is the first time I've seen such a beautiful bamboo forest.
06:47He showed us the bamboo forest of Madake.
06:54Madake, which is one of Japan's 600 types of bamboo, is the most commonly used for Takigaki.
07:06Wow.
07:09They need to train for 10 years to make one Takigaki.
07:16First, the selection.
07:19For example, look at the color.
07:21Look at the color of the front.
07:22It's whitish, right?
07:25The left one is the third year old and whitish.
07:30On the other hand, the right one is the first year old and immature.
07:36The color has changed a little.
07:38Even if it's the third, fourth, or fifth year,
07:43if it's going to support the bamboo next to it, you have to leave it.
07:47Even if the height is 20 meters, the depth of the roots is only about 30 centimeters from the ground.
07:57If they don't support each other, they will fall.
08:02I see.
08:05Therefore, it is a rule not to cut the bamboo that supports it.
08:13Miki chose this bamboo that stands straight.
08:19Wow, it's beautiful.
08:22First, cut this side a little.
08:26With a saw.
08:28Insert the blade from the side where the bamboo is standing.
08:34The other half is from the other side.
08:45The cut is...
08:49Beautiful.
08:51Even though they cut from two directions, the height is the same.
08:55That's amazing.
08:57If you hold a 20-meter-tall bamboo...
09:02It looks heavy.
09:04Wow.
09:07It's straight.
09:13Wow.
09:14Wow, that's amazing.
09:17It's an incredible power.
09:19Unbelievable.
09:21Then...
09:24Do you want to try it?
09:26Yes.
09:27That's amazing.
09:29Here.
09:31Yes.
09:33The third year's precious bamboo is specially cut.
09:43Be careful.
09:45It looks heavy.
09:49Wow.
09:53How is it?
09:55It's heavy, so I'm holding it with force.
09:58I want to make it a little harder.
10:00I'm holding it like this, so it should be hard.
10:03It still needs practice.
10:09After cutting the bamboo, it is necessary to cut off the branches immediately.
10:16This is the first task after a long preparation.
10:23How long does it take to train?
10:28First of all, I can't hold a knife.
10:31I just carry the bamboo cut by my seniors.
10:34I've been carrying it for about three years.
10:37I've been a trainee for about three years.
10:39Thank you for letting me cut it so quickly.
10:45It's an experience.
10:49The bamboo is carried to the workshop and washed carefully.
10:59Then the washed bamboo is...
11:07Wow.
11:10All at once.
11:12Wow.
11:14This is a special tool called Kikuwari.
11:21The number and size of the blade vary.
11:25It is used depending on the size of the bamboo.
11:29Wow.
11:31There are tips on how to use it.
11:35Be careful.
11:37There's an eye here.
11:39The part that comes out a little is the bamboo's eye.
11:44It's really a little.
11:47If you put a blade on this part, it will crack straight.
11:52Wow.
11:55Mark also tries.
11:57I'll hit it.
11:59Are you OK?
12:00Yes.
12:03I'll drop it.
12:05Wow.
12:07This is good.
12:11The weight of the tool breaks the bamboo,
12:14so it's great that you can cut it straight without bending the bamboo.
12:21The next day.
12:24To Miki's workshop.
12:28In fact, Mark had a long-cherished dream of bamboo cutting that he wanted to make for many years.
12:37Wow.
12:39That is amazing.
12:42It's my dream to make this.
12:46Kouetsuji-gaki is a model of Kouetsuji-gaki in Kyoto,
12:50and the highest level of technology is used.
12:56Kouetsuji-gaki
13:01Cut a piece of bamboo in the middle of the bamboo and make it into a short piece.
13:13The curved part is called the shoulder.
13:18It's terrible.
13:21Divide the bamboo into 8mm widths and reassemble them.
13:26It's a precise structure.
13:28Wow.
13:31This is the origin of the name,
13:35which is made by the artist of the Edo period, Kouetsu Hongami,
13:40who liked to draw a beautiful curve.
13:42Wow.
13:45Kouetsuji-gaki is said to be one of the most difficult bamboo-cutting techniques.
13:52Here it is.
13:54Oh, very good.
13:56Are we going to work on this?
13:58I'm going to give Mark a special lesson.
14:03He challenges himself to make Kouetsuji-gaki,
14:07which is full of the most advanced techniques he has ever seen in his dream.
14:12Will he succeed?
14:16It's beautiful.
14:22Mark from the United States.
14:25Kouetsuji-gaki is said to be one of the most difficult bamboo-cutting techniques.
14:31Here it is.
14:33Oh, very good.
14:35Are we going to work on this?
14:37I'm going to give Mark a special lesson.
14:42It's the biggest challenge in his life.
14:48Since Miki-san has already made half of it,
14:52he puts the rest together.
14:56I'm going to wrap the head part and the head.
15:02The structure of Kouetsuji-gaki is supposed to be a secret.
15:11But this time, he's going to show us the inside of the bamboo-cutting technique.
15:17Actually, I don't think I should show you the inside.
15:20Let's finish it quickly and hide it.
15:25It's been a long-time dream since I met bamboo-cutting.
15:32For 13 years, he has been making Kouetsuji-gaki, which he has longed for.
15:38Mark it carefully.
15:44Please cut it into small pieces.
15:49He challenges the most difficult part of the curve.
15:54I'm going to bend it little by little.
15:58Little by little, he cuts the bamboo into 8mm width.
16:07Is there a tip for not twisting the bamboo?
16:11I'm going to cut it into small pieces.
16:18The first time I learned bamboo-cutting from my father was in Kouetsuji-gaki.
16:24I remember that I made Kouetsuji-gaki with my father's help.
16:36When he was 22 years old, he made Kouetsuji-gaki for the first time with his father.
16:43He made Kouetsuji-gaki for the first time with his father's help.
16:48It took him three hours to make Kouetsuji-gaki.
16:56It took him three hours to make Kouetsuji-gaki.
17:05I've never made such a beautiful bamboo-cutting before.
17:11It's so beautiful.
17:15His long-cherished dream has come true.
17:20Thank you very much.
17:22Thank you very much.
17:37And...
17:39I'm honored to meet you all.
17:42I'm honored to meet you all.
17:50I'm grateful to you all.

18:20And...
18:22And...
18:24And...
18:26And...
18:28It's a bamboo-cutting tool.
18:31It's a bamboo-cutting tool.
18:38I will always cherish it.
18:43I wish you good luck.
18:46Bye.
18:48Thank you very much.
18:58It's been 7 years since then, and he's back with Miki-san.
19:04What's going on?
19:06Hello, I'm a fan who wants to go to Japan.
19:09Hello, nice to meet you.
19:11Nice to meet you too, I'm a fan.
19:13How are you?
19:15Do you still keep in touch with Maki-san?
19:18Yes, I still keep in touch with him through LINE.
19:25I call him Miki-sensei.
19:27It's been a long time.
19:30In fact, Maki-san came to Japan twice after he was invited.
19:35He came a lot.
19:37He helped with the bamboo processing at Kyoto Gosho and Gion Festival.
19:44I feel like the atmosphere of the building has changed a lot.
19:49That's true.
19:51That's right. There was a fire five years ago.
19:55All the buildings burned down.
19:58There was a house here.
20:00In January 2020, there was a fire.
20:04All the houses and warehouses except for the workshop burned down.
20:10The injured did not come out.
20:14The houses and warehouses that have been inherited for over 140 years.
20:20The valuable bamboo that has been stored for over 100 years.
20:25Everything that was supposed to be exported was lost.
20:29It's so precious.
20:31What have I been doing all this time?
20:34What was my life?
20:36I felt like I was at the bottom.
20:39After the fire, the world was affected by COVID-19.
20:45There are many hotels, hotels, and restaurants in our area.
20:52We were greatly affected.
20:57Even in such a situation, the cooperation of the people of Kyoto continued to make bamboo.
21:07All the bamboo was lost.
21:09I asked a bamboo shop in Kyoto to give me the materials.
21:14I was able to work safely.
21:17I really want you to help me.
21:20That's great.
21:22And this.
21:24I make tea.
21:27We have a meeting to support and support Mr. Takashi Miki.
21:37I got a lot of money.
21:39I think it was the driving force that made me want to do my best.
21:48Fortunately, the machine and tools were saved, so the work resumed little by little.
21:56A request from a first-class hotel representing Kyoto.
22:03Mr. Miki, who has been working hard to protect the Miki Bamboo Shop.
22:10Last July, the new building was completed.
22:14I'm glad.
22:15The inside is well insulated.
22:20This is a fireproof board.
22:30In addition.
22:31It's cool.
22:33A tea room to serve tea.
22:37A temple dedicated to the god of bamboo.
22:41It is spreading Japanese culture such as bamboo and tea.
22:46That's great.
22:49A message for Mr. Mark.
22:53Hello, Mr. Mark.
22:55How are you?
22:56I have a new building and a tea room.
23:00When you come to Japan, you can contact me by LINE or phone.
23:06Please come and visit.
23:08I look forward to working with you.
23:10That's a good exchange.
23:13On the other hand, Mr. Mark in America.
23:16Thanks to everyone, I'm more and more absorbed in bamboo writing after returning home.
23:23A surprising job request from experience in Japan.
23:29That's great.
23:45This September, a report from Mr. Mark in America.
23:51Thank you for making my dream come true to teach me how to make bamboo writing in Japan.
23:59Thanks to everyone, I'm more and more absorbed in bamboo writing after returning home.
24:06The experience in Japan has made the making of bamboo writing a big step forward.
24:13This is Ryoanji writing.
24:17This is Keninji writing, arranged for America.
24:24Mr. Mark's bamboo writing has increased dramatically.
24:29In addition,
24:32Thanks to Mr. Miki's improved skills in learning bamboo writing,
24:36I've been able to do an incredible job.
24:39What is it?
24:41What is that job?
24:46I made a rifle in a Japanese garden in Seattle.
24:52That's great.
24:53I also made it on an order from Disney World in Florida.
24:58My bamboo writing has reached the farthest Florida state in the United States.
25:05That's great.
25:08I will continue to learn from Mr. Miki and encourage him to make bamboo writing.
25:14See you again.
25:23When I invited Mr. Mark to Japan,
25:28The skill of making bamboo writing has improved dramatically.
25:32He was working hard for the dream of spreading bamboo writing all over America.
25:40I am here in Japan.
25:43Next week, South Africans who love squid are going to the original restaurant that has won the first prize for 50 years in a row.
25:54It's perfect.
25:56They are approaching the secret of deliciousness that has been loved for many years.
26:04In addition, they are going to Ounabara to find the ultimate squid.
26:13I did it.
26:15Next week, 28th, at 8 p.m.
26:20The cheering squad is on TVER U-NEXT.
