A large stationery store in Ginza. The setting is the stationery section. With over 5,000 items, including colorful postcards and high-quality Japanese paper stationery. A man buys a message card to write his first letter to his wife on their wedding anniversary. A female office worker sends letters to customers she cannot meet due to the pandemic. Some people gain strength from letters exchanged with their grandmother in their hometown. In these times when meeting people is difficult, what kind of thoughts do people write to whom? We listen for three days.
