Here's a YouTube link to an excerpt from a Japanese TV show:

Is this some kind of reality show or what? Has anyone actually seen it?

The background music throws me and the tone of the narrator also throws me. I realize that cultural differences might interfere with my ability to pick up on what in Japanese culture has an entirely different meaning, but the music sounds like adventure/challenge music and the narrator sounds like reality show to me. I'm seeing it as a new kid who needs to get with the program and he's reluctant to bath with everyone else. The male supervisor pushes him along and we are left with the boy entering the bath area and the question is whether he will adapt to his new surroundings or not.

Taking the public service announcement viewpoint, is the male supervisor being portrayed as being too pushy about forcing the kid to bath? Or does the boy have bruises or scars that he's afraid to let others see which would suggest abuse at home?

Also the YouTube description uses the word "program" which suggests to me that it's not a public service announcement. (But perhaps the word "program" is misused... again due to cultural differences on the part of the person who wrote the description... who knows?)

Thanks, Cal, for the info you shared... however, that website was in Japanese (I presume) and it made no sense to me other than that I recognized the kid's picture and his name was presented in western format.

I just seen the video on the site
im only guessing
he boy might be gay and afraid takeing a hot shower
