In Japan, thousands vanish each year \u2014 some by choice. Known as johatsu (\u201cevaporated people\u201d), they leave behind debts, jobs, or marriages to start over in secret. The phenomenon grew after the 1990s economic crash, with books and businesses even teaching how to disappear. #Johatsu #JapanMystery #HiddenLives #CulturalInsights
