## Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1b comprises mainly two subtypes in Japan, each named for its geographic prevalence (Japan‐specific, J type; worldwide, W type). Because the newly identified subtypes have not been fully characterized, the present study directed this issue from virologic
