Has Hikaru Utada been to any other Asian countries besides Japan?

I'm wondering because she hasn't even mentioned her being to any other Asian countries. The only countries I know she has been to were the US, UK, France, Netherlands (IDK this for sure), and Japan. I wonder if there are more countries besides those I mentioned, because those that I mentioned were the only ones I know for sure.

Oh yeah, that's right, I forgot about that. I didn't think she would be in the part where she was in China.

I guess that was the only reason she went to China, was for that music video. I guess nothing else special, cause I'm guessing that's because of China's government? Probably not, but I'm guessing she has been to the Czech Republic too, because of the cover of "Be My Last".

I know this is slightly off topic, but does anyone find it kinda weird how she changed her stuffed animal from "Kuma-Chan" to "Kuma-Chang" because it was "Made in China"? Considering Billions of products are made over there, it shouldn't be a surprise for her to find out about that.

Kuma-Chan and Kuma-Chang are pronounced exactly the same in Japanese.
It's just a little joke, because it doesn't change anything.
Japan doesn't have as high as a reliance on China for consumer goods as the US or other countries do.

Oh, but the joke wasn't really funny (not trying to sound rude, but there was absolutely no coincidence whatsoever).

Being on MTV China doesn't necessarily mean she went to China..although yes....the Passion PV was shot in China.
