Late 'Black Day'

There is a tradition celebrated widely in South Korea for the singles, every year on April 14 to eat Jajangmyeon, which is known as Black Day.

So, February 14 is the Valentine's day, when women shows their love by giving chocolates to men, and March 14, is the White Day, when the men returning the love back by giving candies for the women.
So, for those singles who don't get the chance to do this all, they have Black Day, the day when the singles flock together to eat Jajangmyeon. There is a myth, when a couple eating Jajangmyeon together, then they will break the jinx upon them. There's also an extreme case, that people wear black outfit on this day, ready to mourn for the day and they drink black coffee right after eating the black noodle.

Well, last Thursday, I celebrated this Jajangmyeon day not because I mourned for being single, but it was merely just for fun. I just got to know this thing from a friend of mine, EH, and thanks to Mr.Google for telling me the background stories of this Jajangmyeon day. It was one fun and yummy celebration Jajangmyeon day. ^^
