Once a year, people write their wishes on strips of paper for Tanabata. This episode takes place at a temple near Tokyo Tower during the Tanabata Festival. Visitors write their hidden wishes on strips of paper in their own way. There is a woman hoping to reunite with the man she has been in love with for ten years, a couple worried about their company bonuses due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and a foreigner who comes every year to connect with his late father. Over the three days leading up to Tanabata, we listen to the people who write their modest wishes on strips of paper.
