The original title and line is translated as “I caught Mr. Sun in a bucket”. When the MC starts to clean up (after closing shop) with a bucket full of water, the sun is reflected in the water and hence Mr. Sun is ‘caught’. With reference to the show and other lines that talk about the sun and rain, Mr. Sun seems to represent happy times and the rain not-so-happy times. into my hands
