Boyboys, have you returned your gergers' gifts from Valentine's Day?
From Wikipedia:
White Day is a festival that was created by a concentrated marketing effort in Japan, celebrated in Japan and Korea on March 14, one month after Valentine's Day.
On Valentine's Day, women give gifts to men; on White Day, men who received chocolate on Valentine's Day return the favor and give gifts to women.
This holiday is starting to gain popularity in Hong Kong, where Japanese influence is strong. The observance of Valentine's Day in Japan, particularly among students, is somewhat different than in the West. Valentine's day is mainly for the girls to present chocolates (either store-bought or handmade) to the boy of their choice. There also exists the "Giri-Choco", which translates as "Obligatory Chocolate" that a girl will give to those close to her but has no romantic interest in. When White Day rolls around, it is the boy's role to return the gift in what is called "sanbai-gaeshi" or "triple return", as the gift the boy gives is supposed to be three times the value of the initial gift from the girl.
Not so relevant here, but oh well.
