문화적 배경
The concept of disclosure is central to modern Japanese corporate governance and privacy laws. The 'Personal Information Protection Act' has made people very cautious about what they share. Interestingly, the term 'self-disclosure' (Jiko-kaiji) is a popular buzzword in Japanese self-help and communication seminars to encourage better relationships.
The 'Self-Disclosure' Trick
In Japan, using `自己開示` (self-disclosure) is a known social strategy. If you share a small, harmless secret first, the other person is much more likely to trust you and open up!

What It Means
開示をする is all about transparency. It means taking information that was kept secret and making it visible. Think of it as an official 'reveal.' It is not just casual sharing. It implies a sense of responsibility or a formal process. You are providing access to data, facts, or even your own inner feelings.
How To Use It
You use this phrase by putting the information being shared first. Use the particle を before 開示する or 開示をする. Adding the を makes it sound slightly more deliberate. It functions as a verb. You will often see it in business contracts or news reports. It sounds very professional and serious. If you use it in casual conversation, you are likely being a bit dramatic for effect.
When To Use It
This is your go-to phrase for professional settings. Use it when a company releases financial results. Use it when a lawyer shares evidence in court. It is also common in psychology as 自己開示 (self-disclosure). This is when you share personal stories to build trust. You might use it when texting a friend if you are pretending to be a spy. 'I cannot disclose my location yet!'
When NOT To Use It
Do not use this for mundane daily updates. Telling your mom you ate a sandwich is not a 'disclosure.' It would sound like you are under a legal investigation. Avoid it when gossiping about light topics. Using such a heavy word for small talk makes you sound like a robot. Stick to 話す or 教える for the small stuff.
Cultural Background
In Japan, privacy is highly valued. There is a strong distinction between Honne (true feelings) and Tatemae (public face). Because of this, the act of 開示 is seen as a significant gesture of trust. Japan also has strict laws regarding personal information. Disclosing data is a serious legal matter that requires careful handling. It is not something people do lightly.
Common Variations
You will frequently hear 情報開示 (information disclosure). This is common in government and corporate news. Another one is 開示請求 (request for disclosure). This happens when someone legally asks to see hidden documents. In the social media age, you might hear people talk about 'disclosing' their identity. It always carries a weight of importance.
사용 참고사항
