Anyone here tour Japan or Korea

I'm looking for some input from anyone here who has toured Japan or Korea. I have the opportunity to release and tour in these countries with the aid of a major corporate sponsor. I'm obviously concerned cause Id have to leave my business here for a few months at a time....The money seems right, but I know a buck doesn't go far in Japan and I don't want to be blinded by the desire to get out from behind a mixer and on stage again (doing exactly what I've always wanted to do)....any advice?
PS. For those of you who will say it's up to me, I realize that....just looking for advice or information from all available sources....

I lived in japan for 8 years. The teens to almost 28yrs olds LOVE hiphop to death. You'll be fine..

You do hiphop?

There are ALOT of jazz funk clubs in Chiba, Yokohama, Roppongi and Tokyo, your still good. Trust that..
