The "Fundoshi Fair" will be held after "Fundoshi Day" on February 14th. "Fundoshi Day" is an anniversary established to widely convey the culture and health of loincloth, and has been officially certified by the Japan Anniversary Association. It was February 14th from the puns that read 2 as "fu" and 14 as "doshi".

There are many puns on anniversaries.

At the fair, "Yellow loincloth for fulfilling love" will be on sale. This is a yellow loincloth with a message of love written by a woman and given to a man. There will also be a space in the venue where you can write your message.

Example of a message from a woman: For some reason, there are many things that are in a hurry.

Overseas, there are many places where men give underwear to women on Valentine's Day. It may not be so strange to give a loincloth, which is a traditional Japanese underwear, considering the Japanese version.

In a sense, true internationalization?
