Valentine's Day is not just a day; it’s an opportunity to write a journey of love. It’s a time for hearts to beat in unison, a moment when gazes exchange the most sincere words of affection. Join HaiAn Riverfront in exploring more about this special celebration of love and the surprises that await you!
I. Why is there Valentine's Day? What is the meaning of Valentine's Day?
One of the most popular hypotheses suggests that this day originated from the ancient Roman festival of Lupercalia, celebrated in mid-February with purification rituals and fertility prayers.
However, Valentine's Day is also associated with the story of Saint Valentine, a Roman priest who lived in the 3rd century and secretly performed marriages for couples despite Emperor Claudius II's ban. Saint Valentine was later arrested and executed on February 14th. Over time, Valentine's Day gradually became linked to romantic love, especially during the Middle Ages when love poems began to emerge.
Today, it is a popular celebration worldwide, providing an opportunity for couples to exchange gifts, cards, and sweet wishes, expressing their love and commitment to one another.
II. How many days are there on Valentine's Day?
Actually, there’s not just one, but three Valentine’s Days: Red, White, and Black Valentine. So, what sets these three days apart? Let’s find out together with HaiAn Riverfront.
1. Red Valentine
Red Valentine, also known as Valentine's Day on February 14th, is a special occasion for couples around the world to express their feelings and commitment to each other.
Red Valentine is not just a day for exchanging gifts; more importantly, it’s an opportunity for couples to spend time together and create memorable moments. Whether it’s a romantic evening at a fancy restaurant, a picnic, or simply a warm night spent together, what matters most is that both partners feel the love and care that the other has for them.
2. White Valentine
White Valentine, also known as White Day, is a special Valentine's celebration held on March 14th, one month after Red Valentine (February 14th). The origins of White Valentine trace back to Japan and later spread to many other Asian countries, including Vietnam.
The main significance of White Valentine is to reciprocate and appreciate feelings. While Red Valentine is an occasion for girls to express their affection, White Valentines an occasion for girls to express their affection, White Valentine is a time for boys (or those who have received affection) to respond to that sincerity with gifts and actions that demonstrate care and love.
3. Black Valentine
Unlike Red or White Valentine, Black Valentine is a day for singles to have fun.
Originating from South Korea, lonely hearts gather to enjoy black bean noodles (Jajangmyeon) and share their thoughts and feelings. They see this as a way to "vent" about their single status and support each other in overcoming the sadness on this occasion.
The significance of Black Valentine is not only for singles but also an occasion for everyone to express confidence, love themselves, and enjoy single life positively. It’s also a chance for singles to meet, socialize, and perhaps find their "other half."
