Korea's Couple Days!

Hello Everyone!

Hanboknam is back! 

Since it's February already, 

I would want to talk about Valentines day and other special days that Korea's culture have in Korea! 

First of all, Have you wondered how different is valentines in your country and in Korea? 

Actually there are not much difference between different countries! 

In other countries such as America, Valentines day is a day where you show your love to everyone regardless if you are a couple or not. 

In Korea we do that too, but it is usually the women giving chocolates or gifts to their love ones. 

This day is really focused for the couples!

There is another special day in Korea that we follow after Valentines day which is called "White day."  

White day happens right after a month of Valentines day which is on March 14! 

White day is a day where men give women chocolates and gifts; it is the opposite from Valentines day. White day is also a day focus on couples. 

Do your country have this kind of day named "White Day?"

Couples use these 2 dates to hang out in different places. 

One of the most visited places will be in amusement parks such as Lotte World and Everland, their favorite restaurants and other places where they want to hang out!

There is also another day where couples keep up with which is Pepero day!
Pepero day is on Novemeber 11!
Do you know why it is called Pepero day?

Pepero is a Korean branded chocolate sticks.
We call this day as such because the sticks represent the November 11 in numbers!

As the name states, Pepero day is a day where couples share Pepero with one another!!

With these fun events, couples make every time special and memorable!
I hope you guys have fun experiencing Korea's special days!
