Bear-kun's 47 Prefectures Dance Project: Fukui Edition

The Apaman Network, a leading player in rental housing brokerage, is launching the 18th edition of its dance project featuring the company’s mascot, Bear-kun. Scheduled to unveil on September 3, 2025, this new episode focuses on Fukui Prefecture and will spotlight the renowned "Echizen Crab." This initiative aims to highlight the unique aspects of each of Japan’s 47 prefectures through Bear-kun's energetic dance performances.

Purpose and Background

This project seeks to promote local charm and stimulate community engagement through dance. By showcasing iconic landscapes and regional delicacies, Bear-kun will not only entertain but also broaden awareness of Fukui's offerings. In line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), this initiative addresses Goal 11, aimed at creating sustainable urban environments, while also contributing to economic growth, as per Goal 8.

Fukui Prefecture: Land of Beauty and Flavor

Fukui, known for its coastal cuisine like the Echizen Crab and stunning landmarks such as Tojinbo cliffs, provides the perfect backdrop for this edition of the dance project. The choreography uniquely captures the whimsical nature of the crab and the majestic scenery of Tojinbo through fun and engaging movements.

Key Features of the Dance

• - Echizen Crab Walk: Bear-kun will mimic the crab's walk by showcasing playful and comical crab-like movements in sync with the rhythm.
• - Tojinbo Cliffs Representation: The choreography incorporates dynamic poses representing the rugged cliffs and wave-like movements, reflecting the area's natural beauty.
• - Grand Finale: The performance will conclude with Bear-kun striking a joyful pose while exclaiming, "Fukui is the best!"

A Glimpse into Fukui’s Lifestyle

Fukui Prefecture is a blend of nature, history, and modern convenience, making it an attractive place to live. Enhanced access via the Hokuriku Shinkansen has linked Fukui to major urban centers like Tokyo and Osaka, making it practical for those considering dual residences or business operations.

The region offers spacious living options at reasonable prices, allowing for a comfortable lifestyle that is increasingly appealing. With a high rate of homeownership, residents can enjoy a more relaxed way of life. Additionally, Fukui's diverse food culture includes fresh seafood such as the famous Echizen Crab, alongside opportunities for leisure, with attractions like the world-renowned Dinosaur Museum and majestic nature spots.
