According to the Japanese media Mainichi Shimbun, a 120-year-old funeral company based in Chiba Prefecture recently opened 'Cabinet Experience Cafe'.
There are three coffins here, and people who choose to experience can enter the coffin and have unlimited time and take pictures freely.
The experience cost is 2,200 yen (about 20,000 won) per person and is operated by reservation.
The company said "We have received about 20 advance reservations, mostly young people."
The company representative said "I want people to have a vivid experience, take pictures, and enjoy it, but I recommend people who are depressed or hit a wall in their lives to have a go at least once."
