Japanology Plus mini - Season 4 Episode 2
For hundreds of years, Japanese people have used name stamps, known as hanko, to sign their name. People use hanko in everyday situations, such as receiving a parcel, and in formal contexts, such as business transactions and marriage registrations. However, the move toward remote work, triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic, affected how these stamps were used. In a 5-minute digest, we discover the history of hanko and explore what a hanko-free future might look like.
