Everyone knows that in Asia, girls give their boyfriends and husbands chocolate on February 14th. Because giving a “return gift” is important, chocolate companies created White Day on March 14th, a day for men to give white chocolate to the girls. But for single guys who didn’t get anything, there’s Black Day on April 14th. And it’s a great excuse for a big J-List sale!
No girlfriend? No problem! April 14 is Black Day in South Korea, when single men mark the occasion by eating black noodles. They missed out on Valentine’s Day chocolate on February 14, and had no one to give white chocolate to on White Day, March 14, so April 14 is their day! J-List is celebrating with a huge 15% sale on all Japan-based products through April 20. Start browsing now!
What is Black Day?
April 14th is a date that looms large across East Asia. First comes Valentine’s Day on February 14th — women give chocolate to men they like. Then White Day on March 14th — men return the favor with gifts, usually white chocolate but maybe sexy lingerie. And then, for the guys who came up empty on both days, there’s Black Day on April 14th.
Black Day is a South Korean tradition where single men gather to eat jajangmyeon — noodles in black bean sauce — and commiserate about their lonely romantic situation. It’s a fun excuse to wear black clothing and hang out with other single guys, drinking and laughing at themselves.
At J-List, we think Black Day deserves a proper celebration. So we’ve put together a list of things worth picking up whether you’re flying solo by choice or by circumstance. So we’ve started a huge 15% sale on all shipping-from-Japan products for our customers all over the world, which you can start browsing here!
