The couple arrived at Tokyo's Haneda airport and will attend the funeral at Oslo Cathedral on Wednesday before returning to Japan the following day. King Harald V passed away on August 28 at the age of 89, and Emperor Naruhito sent the Japanese royal couple after receiving an invitation from the Norwegian royal family. Notably, Japanese emperors typically do not attend funerals.",
