Comments: | Google hits would suggest that this term is not used outside of traditional seasonal expressions and related poetry. Contemporary use of these kanji: usually a Chinese personal name (many online references); one context was found where it is the name of a Chinese style bento sold in Japan (https://delivery.gnavi.co.jp/premium/shop/sh33724/menu/it6839711800002913301/). |
