Lovers of all things kawaii may need no introduction to Koupen-chan. The adorable penguin was created by Japanese illustrator Rurutea four years ago, and since then has amassed a cult-like following. In celebration of the 4th anniversary of Koupen-chan, a limited-time museum will be popping up on the 7th floor of the Sapporo PARCO mall, and there will be around 150 original drawings on display.
There will also be photo spots set up around the museum and a range of exclusive merchandise available for purchase.
Adult admission to the museum is priced at 500 yen.
