In 2019, the Provincial People's Committee and Izumisano City signed an agreement to establish a relationship and comprehensive cooperation for mutual understanding, friendship and common prosperity. According to the signed document, the two sides work together to develop exchanges and cooperation in the fields of administration, culture, tourism, training, economics and other fields based on the principles of equality and mutual respect, in accordance with the laws of Viet Nam and Japan. The two sides have deepened mutual understanding, for friendship and prosperity... However, in 2021, due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, direct exchanges between the two sides faced many difficulties.
Following series of activities celebrating the 50th anniversary of establishing diplomatic relations between Viet Nam and Japan in general, and between Binh Dinh province and Japanese partners in particular, the Senshu Sorya dance troupe from Izumisano city, Osaka Prefecture, Japan came to Binh Dinh to perform the Yosakoi dance on the Vietnamese Lunar New Year.
The art program "Xuân Quy Nhơn" is an activity to celebrate the 94th anniversary of the founding of the Vietnamese Communist Party and the New Year of Dragon - 2024. The program was a combination of different performances, especially the Yosakoi dance from the Senshu Sorya dance troupe with the participation of 17 members led by Ms. Junko Fujita, Representative Director of the Nigiwai Dream Creation Project. She said, this is the first time we have come to Viet Nam on Tet holiday. All the experiences are new and interesting. I am very happy to come here and introduce to you the cultural beauty of my country. Also on this occasion, we explored more famous tourist destinations such as the Sitting Buddha Statue at Thiền viện Thiên Hưng in Cat Tien commune, Phu Cat district and Twin Cham Towers in Quy Nhon city.
Yosakoi is a traditional Japanese dance, meaning "You are invited to come tonight". This is a joyful dance, carrying the spirit of smiles, happy performer's face, and strong, decisive and uniform movements. In addition to Kochi City, the home of festivals, Yosakoi festivals are held in more than 200 places throughout Japan and abroad. Moreover, Izumisano City hosts a national festival named "Eejanaika Festival" around mid-October every year. More than 100 teams and about 4,000 dancers across the country perform the Yosakoi Naruko dance at the festival.
