        To really understand what White Day is all about,you have to understand what Valentine's Day in Japan is like. Japanese Valentine's Day is all about men getting presents. Japanese women are usually too shy to show their love,though it might not be true today. Valentine's Day is a great chance to let women show their feelings. Men should return gifts to women on White Day.

        On both days,chocolate is the gift of choice. More often,the colour of the chocolate is white because of the name of the day. You can also buy flowers,candy,or cookies.

        Does it sound good to you? Don't get too excited when you get chocolate from Japanese girls! They give chocolate not only to their loved ones,but also to men such as bosses (老板) and male(男性的) friends.
