Japan is similar, but I’ve found the Chinese can be more rude (not trying to be racist, just my observation), so this experience may be a little different.
I wonder with capacity that full, they don’t have some kind of system for exit and entrance only doors so that there isn’t that crazy jam of people trying to get in and our the same door.
Title is leaving out some context from the [associated blogpost](http://beijingcream.com/2013/07/beijing-subway-can-get-a-wee-crowded-in-the-mornings/). This is Beijing in *2013*
>What you are looking at is Beijing Subway’s Line 13 on the morning of Thursday, July 18, around 7:30. It’s likely the Xierqi station — a picture of which, tweeted out by Joe Xu, we linked to on Friday — which is a transfer station and one of the cleaner, better-looking ones in the system. It has, like other stations in Beijing’s vast underground transportation network, built-in artificial bottlenecks intended to relieve congestion in the form of gates and narrow staircases. On some occasions, however, those fail. For you see, in China, sometimes there are simply too many goddamn people.
>China is explained for you in this one video. Want to know why this country is the way it is? People. Many of them. Why is the pollution so bad? Too many people. Why are people pushy? Too many people. Why is there no soft power? The government censors too much shit and suppresses expression because they’re afraid of the people — the people of which there are too goddamn many.
>We’ve circled the Xierqi station below in red, a color that is what one sees, proverbially, amid such congestion, and a fine representation of hell, a circle in which is surely constructed with Xierqi station on Beijing Subway Line 13 as a model.
The trains stopped exactly where the people lined up. Crazy.

Here’s a video from last year of the same train station https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDkxaOZZQpo
