What is the date of Valentine's Day in Japan?

White day on March 65438, 2004.

White day is usually regarded as a continuation of Western Valentine's Day, which originated in Rome in the 3rd century.

It is said that the Roman emperor set up Valentine's Day to commemorate that he saved a couple who were about to be executed for violating the marriage ban in February 14.

A month later, in March of 14, the husband and wife vowed to be at loggerheads, which later became a day and spread to other countries.

It is generally believed that Japan first accepted and promoted this festival, and Asian countries followed suit because of its strong cultural soft power.

So this Valentine's Day without accurate historical records has become another Valentine's Day that young couples value.

Also known as Valentine's Day gift, it means that if you receive a gift on Valentine's Day, you will give it back on March 14 a month later, and of course only give it to the person you want to give it back to.
