The prominent Japanese Sunday drama series has issued a public advisory regarding ranch visits, a popular activity often depicted in the series. The television station and show producers, keeping audiences' safety in mind, have called attention to proper conduct and safety guidelines for visiting ranches. The advisory comes in response to a rising trend sparked by the series, where fans recreate scenes by visiting real-life ranches.
In Japan, television dramas have a substantial influence on pop culture and lifestyle trends. With the wide popularity of this Sunday series depicting rural life, fans trying to emulate the show in real life became a trend. This public call for awareness about visiting ranches indicates the ethical concern of TV stations regarding the safety and conduct of their viewers, embodying the Japanese values of public safety, respect and harmony.
In the U.S and EU, particularly with popular series like Game of Thrones or Stranger Things, fan visits to filming locations have likewise surged. It's usual for production houses or authorities to issue guidance to manage these situations, respecting the fans' enthusiasm but balancing it against practical concerns like safety, local community disruption, and environmental impact.
