Maybe for better visibility?

When it snows, you can see the markings better. It always snows a lot in Hokkaido in the winter.

Probably they use LED lights to melt the snow as well! Haha!

It’s the same in Oslo
LED won’t give off heat. Or way less than normal halogen,xenon, etc
Hahaha that’s exactly my point lol
I remember some news saying that the snow doesn’t melt due to Japan using LED for its lights everywhere
So it’s 100% sarcasm :P
Since I’m editing airports in Japan, I’ve seen this with many airports (New Chitose is my next project) and I believe @Narroc_Wim’s answer is legitimate enough :)
Will you have the yellow markings on the runway?
