A special exhibition is being held in Kitakyushu City, which is related to Fumiko Hayashi. About 100 works are on display, including letters sent to Hayashi by writers and editors who lived in the same era.

Among them, Masuji Ibushi, known for works such as "Black Rain," wrote a letter to Hayash on his way to Paris, saying, "Don't make bad friends in France, and it seems that you will soon make good friends in foreign countries"
