<Background of the Event>

Inheritance is an important theme that concerns all families. However, measures are often postponed because people

"don't know where to start"

or find it

"difficult to discuss with family."

In recent years, issues such as vacant houses and inheritance disputes have become social problems, increasing the importance of early preparation.

This event aims to convey these issues in an easy-to-understand manner through the lens of "laughter," providing an opportunity for local residents to casually think about inheritance.
