JAPAN CELEBRATES HISTORIC EMMYS TRIUMPH FOR ‘SHOGUN’
Japan celebrated the record-breaking Emmy Awards triumph of “Shogun”, although many confessed not having watched the series about the country’s warring dynasties in the feudal era.
“Shogun” smashed all-time records at the television awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, taking home an astounding 18 statuettes and becoming the first non-English-language winner of the highly coveted award for best drama series.
But she admitted that she only watched the trailer.
The series is available only on Disney’s streaming platform, which is relatively new in Japan.
