The Booming Japanese Rent-a-Friend Business

quote [ You can pay an actor to impersonate your relative, spouse, coworker, or any kind of acquaintance. ]

Morin: Does she understand that you’re not her real father?

Yuichi: No, the mother hasn’t told her.

Morin: How do you think she would feel if she discovered the truth?

Yuichi: I think she would be shocked. If the client never reveals the truth, I must continue the role indefinitely. If the daughter gets married, I have to act as a father in that wedding, and then I have to be the grandfather. So, I always ask every client, “Are you prepared to sustain this lie?” It’s the most significant problem our company has.

This service should be someone's PhD in psychology or something. It's heartwarming, bonkers, sad, wtf, etc.

Oh that girl is going to have such daddy issues.

In a way, we’re all pretending to be adults, mimicking what being an adult is from entertainment, relatives, and older people.

Pretending to be someone’s dad or friend wouldn’t be a stretch if I’m being honest.

pretending to be people's dad will get you elected governor in New Jersey.
