In Indonesia’s Toraja region, a woman cares for her deceased mother as if she were still alive—preserving her body with special medicines, taking her into the garden, and combing her hair. In Toraja culture, the dead may be considered “sick” or “sleeping” until burial.

Suit Travel review on the recent "overnight" Tokaido Shinkansen train

The summary:

This video features a trip on the special Tokaido Lumiere Express (0:32), a night train project on the Tokaido Shinkansen line that runs from Tokyo to Shin-Osaka.

Key Highlights:

- The Experience: The train departed Tokyo at 10:00 PM (0:24) as a chartered group train. Passengers were offered a unique plan allowing one person to occupy two or three seats, making it a comfortable way to travel (2:14).

- Route & Schedule: The train stopped at Nagoya (6:29) and had an extended layover at Gifu-Hashima station (7:22) to allow for resting, as typical Shinkansen operations do not run past midnight (7:06). It arrived at its final destination, Shin-Osaka, at 6:59 AM (11:47).

- Atmosphere: The creator noted a calm environment where passengers were encouraged to sleep (10:07). The train staff were dedicated, with personnel stationed at every door to prevent unauthorized boarding (1:46).

- Takeaway: While not as comfortable as a dedicated sleeper train, the creator found it to be a efficient and interesting alternative to taking the first morning train, offering an early arrival in Osaka (13:02).

Unpopular opinion: All long distance unreserved general seats should be changed to this. The current arrangement looks uncivilized with multiple people seating crammed in both upper and lower berths just like a prisoner train bound for the concentration camp.

The current arrangement also not safe for the passenger in the case of sudden train derailment at higher speed. Indian Railways should look into China for their version of long distance, cheaper seat arrangement on slower regular train of hard seat which has the same arrangement just like in the image.

The role of Gemini AI to understand North Korean TV programs

With the development of Gemini AI that is currently being integrated with youtube, it is now possible for those who don't speak Korean to understand further the content of Korean Central TV programs (thanks to numerous youtube channels that have shared the exact footage).

I personally have watched some of the programs with the help of Gemini AI by asking the summary and even the further analysis of the program which are opening the new perspective on how Kim Jong Un is basically trying to become an expert on any topics (from engineering and architectural design all the way to corporate logo design) during on-site field guidance.

With that, i am willing to post that analysis on the next posts later.

Although with that Gemini AI achievement, it still has disadvantage on how Gemini AI translated the video to the South Korean version of Korean language instead of North Korean that has different pronunciation in some words.

In the end, i think Gemini AI will help us understand more regarding the North Korean state media although it will still be our task to double check the analysis results.

Your point of view is welcomed in this discussion.

Based on the latest Korean Central TV documentary about Samgwang Livestock Farm (2026), Kim Jong Un personally guided the farm's logo design (images 1 and 2) and gave detailed guidance on the farm's butter production, including how to prevent oil separation when melting semi-hard cheese (image 3).

Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYSTs4kt0Lc&t=1658s

  • Logo design: 24:00 mark
  • Butter production: 26:13 mark. the word of "butter" in North Korean is 빠다 (ppada) while in South Korean is 버터 (beoteo), the "butter" words in the video are somehow translated by Google as 바다 (bada) or "ocean" in English.

Information above were translated using Gemini AI and Google Translate.

P.S. I'm not fluent in Korean language, especially the NK version, and need to rely on Google Translate and Gemini for analyzing this topics.
