Hokkaido had a lot of snow this winter. Shoveling snow is an indispensable part of daily life. At Chinese Restaurant Ryuho, a famous restaurant for thick-fried noodles with sauce loved by the people of Otaru, people were seen shoveling snow in front of the store. The scene attracted attention on social media, but is it okay to do it that way?

In the video, the store owner can be seen shoveling snow in a T-shirt despite it being the middle of winter. It looks like he's preparing to open the store, but it looks really cold... Some people on the store's account have commented, "He should at least wear a jumper...", but many users have sent messages of support, saying, "He's good at shoveling snow!" and "Thank you for your hard work!"

Some people commented that "T-shirts are fine" and "Short sleeves are fine for this area." Yes, in Hokkaido, it is not that uncommon to see people shoveling snow in T-shirts. In particular, it is rare to see restaurant owners cleaning in front of their stores in T-shirts. It's amazing how Hokkaido residents can withstand the cold.
