Why is White Day also called St. Valentine's Day?

White Valentine's Day is generally considered to be the continuation of Western Valentine's Day and originated in Rome in the third century. According to legend, the Roman emperor established Valentine's Day to commemorate his saving a pair of lovers who were about to be executed for violating the ban on love and marriage on February 14th. A month later, on March 14, the couple vowed to remain together until death, and it later became known as White Day and began to spread to other countries. It is generally believed that Japan was the first to accept and promote this holiday. Due to Japan's strong cultural soft power, Asian countries have followed suit, so this Valentine's Day, which has no accurate historical records, has become another "Valentine's Day" valued by young lovers.

According to legend, on February 14th, boys give girls gifts (usually roses). After a month of consideration and investigation, on March 14th, if the girl gives the boy a gift (usually chocolate), it means that the girl recognizes the boy and can fall in love.

Therefore, March 14th is also called White Day. Compared with the excitement of February 14th, the story of March 14th shows that it is more of a sweet and meeting day.
