A Christian named Valentine ignored the ban and bravely showed his love to his lover. As a result, he was finally executed, and his death date was1February 4.
In order to commemorate the brave spirit of Valentine who died for his lover and love, Christians designated February 14 as Valentine's Day, so Valentine's Day is also called Saint Valentine's Day or Saint Valentine's Day.
