Undeterred by the recent saga surrounding their British counterparts, Japan's royal family made its social media debut Monday in a bid to shake off its image as reclusive and out of touch with the country's youth. The ancient institution's Instagram launch features Bonsai trees and birthday gatherings — a cautious first step into the world of social media that may disappoint those hoping for a candid glimpse into their veiled world.
“Since the Imperial Family is built on the consensus of the people, we hope this will deepen the understanding amongst young people who will lead the next generation,” said Mariko Fujiwara, head of the public relations office at the Imperial Household Agency, according to Japan’s Asahi Shimbun newspaper last week. The imperial family is now finally catching up to other royals around the world, with Britain's royal family having joined X some 15 years ago.
