Despite the spread of an earthquake rumor circulating on social media, South Korean tourists traveling to Japan saw a 2% increase in June. This contrasts sharply with Hong Kong, where Japan-bound reservations dropped by 83%. The rumors originated from a manga artist's supposed prediction of a massive tsunami, which has since been discredited. Japan's government advises not to be swayed by unsubstantiated claims, affirming that Japan is always prepared for natural disasters.
