As such, the day is a couples day, rather than a generally observed holiday as it is in countries like the United States. Many convenience stores set up large displays out in front of their shops, with a heavy focus on chocolate and chocolate candies like Ferrero Rocher, Twix and Chupa Chups.
These shops remain up from roughly the week before Valentine's Day to the week after White Day. Similarly, many advertisers capitalize on the two days to anchor their early season sales of jewelry, sweets, lingerie and other sentimental gifts.
White Day March 14th : First celebrated just over 35 years ago in Japan, White Day is the man's turn to show his affection with sugary sweetness, and takes place a month after Valentine's day on March 14th.
The name stems from the giving of primarily white gifts, like white chocolate and lingerie, by Men as an answer to Valentine's Day gifts. Celebrated on April 14th by singles this is where you eat jajangmyun Chinese Black noodles. Rose Day is typically celebrated on May 14th. Pepero Day is celebrated on November 11th. After all, nothing says I wanna get into your pants like ramen and a DVD room. During the winter time, there are usually special foreigners discounts for Everland tickets.
In addition, they usually have a romantic illumination display at night. This is one of my favorite areas in Seoul since you can go to the Lotte World Tower , the Lotte World Amusement Park , and enjoy all the Christmas illuminations that stay up until the end of February but are craftily redecorated to have hearts everywhere. Going to movies sound really boring to you?
Well, how about upgrading your movie experience to go to a rooftop rose garden? Drinks start at around 8, won and I suggest going to an evening movie and getting to the Sky Rose Garden an hour before sunset.
You can get your fine French dining on at the N Grill with degree views of Seoul. In any case, you should call ahead of time to make a reservation. I also recommend taking the Namsan Cable Car up in the evening for ultimate romantic vibes. Every winter I promise myself I will go to Petite France to check out the illuminations and every winter I never get around to it. So all you fun seekers, do Gina Bear a solid and go enjoy the romantic illuminations in this tiny village inspired by the south of France.
And yes, they do really look as romantic as you think. You wanna know what time it is? Click this link for more details. This interestingly themed restaurant offers Korean barbecue and seafood in a teepee.
They call it Sweetness Week. If you kiss someone, they have to give you a sugary treat. Sweetness Week started in with a candy company called Arcor. The campaign had a stronger effect than the company expected -- it led to a new holiday! Today, women use the holiday as a time to go out and have fun with female friends, co-workers or family members, or to show their love for personal female heroes.
