Love Days!

At the beginning of the year I discovered how Koreans celebrate Valentines Day and White Day. Just a few days ago I learned that the 14th of every month is a "love holiday" in Korea! Let me share them with you!

January 14 - Diary Day

Couples exchange diaries or planners and in them they record all the important dates for their relationship like anniversaries and birthdays! Don't you think that this is a really smart idea? Now there is no excuse for forgetting anything important!

February 14 - Valentines Day

Do you think Lee Min Ho would accept chocolates from me?

On Valentines Day in Korea the girls will give chocolates to their crushes to express their feelings or to show their love. Only the girls give out chocolates on Valentines Day.

March 14 - White Day

White Day is Valentines Day reversed, only the guys give chocolates to the girls that they like. White Day and Valentines Day are different from American Valentines Day though, because just chocolate and candy are exchanged in Korea. Where we might give gifts in America, they do not in Korea.

April 14 - Black Day

Black Noodles

 

White Day is the day for singles to get together and celebrate being single! Single people will get together to cheer each other up and eat jjajangmyeon, or black noodles. 

May 14 - Rose Day

Couples give each other Roses. Very classy!

June 14 - Kiss Day

From what I've read about Kiss Day, you "kiss everyone you meet"! It sounds like a lot of kisses!

July 14 - Silver Day

Couples give each other silver jewelry. Since I will be in Korea on this day do you think someone will give me some silver?

August 14 - Green Day

On this day couples enjoy nature together. Also on Green Day singles drink soju (Korean alcohol). Single or taken sounds like a fun day to me!

September 14 - Photo Day

 Jo Kwon and Ga In love taking pictures together

On Photo Day couples get together to take a romantic picture and then place it somewhere that they can always look at it. So cute!

October 14 - Wine Day

Wine Day is for couples to drink wine! 

November 14 - Movie Day

Couples go to the movies on this day. 

December 14 - Hug Day

Hug Day is for couples to hug each other to chase away the cold winter. A very good idea!

Overall I really love the idea of having a love related holiday every month. These days all sound really cute and you can create some good memories with your partner. Who else is all for bringing these holidays to America?!
