White Day

White Day is a holiday celebrated on March 14, primarily in East Asian countries like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and China.

It is a complement to Valentine's Day (February 14), where men reciprocate gifts to women who gave them chocolates or gifts on Valentine's Day. Traditionally, men give white-themed gifts such as white chocolate, marshmallows, cookies, jewelry, or other tokens of appreciation. The holiday emphasizes gratitude and romantic reciprocity, and its name comes from the color white, symbolizing purity and sweetness.

White Day is a significant cultural event in these regions, often celebrated with romantic gestures and expressions of love.
