One of Japan's most beautiful forests also has a sad association with suicide. But Kyochi Watanabe wants to change that.

The vlogger Logan Paul brought the forest into the global public eye when he visited the forest and posted a video showing the body of an apparent suicide victim, forcing YouTube to cut business ties with him.

Playing music loudly at the edge of the forest, Watanabe is a musician who reminds those he meets that it is a shrine to an ancient Japanese water god, and not somewhere to take one's own life.

He hopes his singing and guitar-playing reminds people that they aren't alone, and that they have a friend waiting for them if they follow the music.
