I'm being a bit pedantic but in English the first phrase is not

If I was rich I would go to Japan

that grammar is incorrect because it's conditional and it should be

If I were rich I would go to Japan

Being even more pedantic I think you mean the first verb, were, is in the subjunctive.
it is a hypothetical situation.
