In order to pray for sunny weather, Japan has the habit of hanging sunny dolls. Sunshine doll is called "Zhu Fang" in Japanese, and the word "Zhu Fang" means boy, so many people think that sunshine doll should be male. Japanese sunshine dolls originated from China's "sweeping mother".
The custom of "sweeping the floor" was introduced to Japan from China in peacetime, referring to a paper doll with a broom. It is said that hanging and sweeping mom can make the weather clear. However, because there are many practitioners or monks praying for rain in Japan, the sweeping mother has gradually evolved into a male role in Japan.
