comment

We are researching the influence of various foreign countries on the establishment of Japanese culture and literature. In ancient times, there was the influence of China and the Korean peninsula. In the early modern period, there was the influence of Nanban culture. In modern times, we are researching how Western music was introduced and assimilated into the Japanese people.
