Author Mariko Hayashi, who turned 70 in April last year, will be appearing on Tetsuko Kuroyanagi's long-running talk show "Tetsuko's Room" (TV Asahi), which will be broadcast at 1:00 p.m. on February 28th.

She didn't want to turn 70, but she was so touched by the surprise party that she was celebrated at that time that she had no choice but to accept turning 70. There was one good thing about being in her 70s. She says that it was that she was no longer interested in men. She talks about the changes in her daily life that came with turning 70 with a smile.

She and her husband, whom she married at the age of 36 through an arranged marriage, will celebrate their 35th wedding anniversary this year. She writes only negative things about her husband in her essays, so she is often asked, "Why are we still together?" In addition to talking about her relationship with her husband, she also reveals the "new bamboo shoot life" she started as part of her end-of-life preparations.
