In Japan, on New Year’s Eve, people clean their homes and eat rice cakes to welcome the New Year.

This well-known folktale tells the story of an elderly man and woman.

The old man lives in a snowy region and, although he is poor, he goes to the year-end market on New Year’s Eve to sell the handmade straw hats he made.

He hopes to buy rice cakes for the New Year.

However, instead of selling the hats, he returns home empty-handed.

What on earth happened to the old man?
