Culture break :) 'WHITE DAY' !! in Japan
14th March, it's a special day you know? So what? I hear you say. In Japan, as the one month anniversary of Valentine’s day, it’s a special day known as ‘White Day’.
Women suppose to get returning gifts from men who has been given chocolates or gifts at The Valentines day !!
To explain White Day first, Valentine’s day is quite different in Japan. In Japan, only women, are expected to dish out chocolates to most of the men in their lives – husbands, boyfriends, family, coworkers, etc. The presents aren’t necessarily a symbol of affection either. It’s part of the Japanese culture of gift-giving :)
