Traditionally, Valentine's Day only has one day, February 14, every year - Red Valentine's Day. But to celebrate love, one day is never enough. Thus, White Valentine and Black Valentine were born.

Meaning of Red Valentine's Day

Red Valentine's Day originates from a legend during the reign of Roman Emperor Claudius II (III century AD). At that time, the Roman Empire had to participate in many bloody wars and had difficulty recruiting soldiers. As a tyrannical and harsh king, he believed that the main reason was because Roman men did not want to be away from their families and lovers, so he banned marriage and engagement to focus on the war.

However, Priest Valentine went against King Claudius II's decree by secretly holding marriage ceremonies for young couples. When discovered, priest Valentine was arrested and sentenced to death on February 14, 207.

After that event, priest Valentine was considered the patron saint of human love. February 14, every year, becomes a day to honor the love of couples. At the same time, to show gratitude, the Romans called this special day after the name of Saint Valentine. Every year, people celebrate Valentine's Day by sending each other good wishes and giving meaningful gifts to show their love and care for their lover, wife, or husband.

Meaning of White Valentine's Day

White Valentine's Day, or White Day, originated in Japan in the 1960s. The story goes that on March 14, a boy selling marshmallows wanted to repay the love the girl had for him on Red Valentine's Day, so he gave the girl a box of snow-white candy. From then on, White Valentine's Day was born.

To date, White Valentine's Day is seen by everyone as a day of reciprocation. One month after Valentine's Day, men will respond to their loved ones with touching words or meaningful gifts. As for girls, White Valentine will be a day of excitement and anticipation of receiving gifts instead of affirmation from the guy they love.

Meaning of Black Valentine's Day

If Red Valentine and White Valentine are days for couples, then the "single club" is not inferior when it comes to having its own Black Valentine's Day.

Black Valentine, also known as Black Day, originates from Korea. On this day, young people who are single or who worship celibacy will gather together.

They wear black clothes and eat traditional black bean noodles to pray that they will soon find their other half, which is also a way to declare to everyone that the life of single people is still happy and joyful.
