A company offers its corporate dormitory to students whose college entrance exam coincides with a major concert by the popular Japanese boy band, Arashi, in the local area. The move comes as officials anticipate large crowds for the concert, potentially causing issues for students trying to reach the examination center on time. The exact dates and details of the dormitory's availability remains undisclosed.
High-stakes examinations like college entrance exams are taken extremely seriously in Japanese society, with deference to students during this time being the norm. Meanwhile, there's also a huge cultural value placed on concerts, especially when it involves huge J-Pop bands like Arashi. Balancing these social interests can often prove challenging.
In the US or EU, such arrangements of offering company dormitories as temporary accommodation for students are rare, even in case of major events. However, other supportive measures might be taken to ensure that students can reach their test locations without hinderance.
