What did Japanese do in Italy?

Question

I think I saw a news headline a couple of days ago, which said something like some Japanese students wrote grafitti somewhere in Italy. However, it's gone now. So, could somebody tell me what happned there? Why did the grafitti make the news?

Answer 1

Stupid Japanese university students write their name and university's name at the Italy's World Heritage site. It was found by other Japanese tourists and reported to a university. It was Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore and soon another similar stupid act by other students were found. Most of Japanese think this illmannered act as national disgrace.

I remember same thing happened at Easter Island too. As a Japanese myself, I really hate these idiots. They should've stayed in Japan if they can't pay respect to foreign history and culture.

Answer 2

so they can do is to alert the public of Japan so they can settle the limits of how Japanese people should do or what not to do when they go to other foreign countries.

Answer 3

Italy is a part of world and Japanese can visit any place in small world.
