Do you find yourself wishing that you could have had a little more practice before getting up to karaoke before all your friends? Or are you just a bathroom singer who prefers to sing alone, along with just music and lyrics? Either way, private karaoke rooms could be just as fun and exciting for you. The single-person karaoke room, also known as ’1Kara’ in Japan, was launched late November, and has been gaining in popularity. The store is located in front of Kanda station in Tokyo and offers small, solo rooms, equipped with a table, chair, microphones, headphones and a small screen.



Renting a room for yourself would cost you 600 yen per hour (around $8) between 10:00 A.M. and 6 P.M, and double that between 6 P.M. and 6 A.M. Free drinks are served to all customers. These 1Kara things are just what the people of Japan needed to fine tune their singing for the karaoke-filled New Year’s Eve parties.

One of the best experiences I have in Japan is singing with a bunch of people at a karaoke bar with the rooms. Why go by yourself?

[güttsfükk]

if these rooms are for people that are too shy to be in a room full of other people, i dont know how they'll cope being in "on display in glass cages" for everyone who walks by

looks like a cheap zoo to me anyway

Wouldn't matter to me, I would suck so bad at Karaoke and dance. My karaoke room would need a big-screen TV, remote control, the game and a 5.1 surround system... and a bubble bathtub full of half-naked chicks and me. Then maybe I'd do karaoke.
