It has been 77 years since the launch of Hoppy. Mr. Osada, the hoppy delivery man, is also 77 years old. His favorite pastime is drinking Hoppy at his favorite restaurant after work. One day, Mr. Osada told the store owners that he was retiring and pleaded with them. Looking back on my life, I had nothing. So please teach me how to enjoy life!
