Asian? I mean, I know they exist in Asia, as I lived in SK and JP when I was younger, but we’ve had them in Australia for as long as I can remember, and I’m in my 40s. Westinghouse, Breville and Philips all offer countertop models, and nowadays you can also get them installed directly into the kitchen sink/counter as part of a water filtration system. (Most people prefer a kettle at home, though - they’re cheaper and less fuss to repair/replace.)
Shout out to Asian water boilers and warmers.
Hot water on demand, no fuss.
Like infrastructure designed for providing hot water (>75C) directly to the kitchen?
Damn, that’s amazing.
We only got saunas.
