Lessons in Japanese culture for the French Olympic & Paralympic Team (Ep.1)

To provide the French team with guidance and support before they set off for Tokyo, Groupe BPCE is releasing a web series of seven light-hearted videos featuring Louis-San, a Franco-Japanese YouTuber.

In a few weeks’ time, the French athletes and para-athletes will be flying off to Tokyo. As a partner of the French Olympic & Paralympic Team, Groupe BPCE, along with all its companies and employees, will be among their most fervent fans, supporting them and cheering them on throughout the competition. 

To help our athletes discover the subtleties and intricacies of cultural practices in the land of the rising sun, Groupe BPCE turned to Louis-San, a famous young Franco-Japanese YouTuber with nearly 900,000 subscribers, to produce a web series of seven light-hearted episodes.

This first episode provides a few rudiments of the Japanese language to ensure the French Team are polite, can ask for basic essentials and, above all, don’t make any linguistic faux pas!
