Valentine's Day is also a kind of romantic memorial day among couples. Many couples whisper lovely messages each other and females give chocolate or red roses to males who are loved by the females. But, in usual, as far as I known, most males don't prepare some gift for celebrating this day. Because, we have another memorial day, which is called by White Day, that is similar between Valentine's Day. In Valentine's Day, females express their mind to males. As well as, in White Day, which date is March 14, males express their mind to females. If I received some gift from my lover or other near friends, I give some present for them. Not have to be gorgeous, not to be expensive, just I express thank about their attention or respecting like that. The present usually can be candies and flowers to lovers, and we go to nice restaurants for dinner. Even we celebrate a little bit separate; we commemorate each memorial day as a chance to confirm our love or deep friendship again.

Have you ever heard about Hanbok? These clothes are Korean traditional dress. Because of its beauty and shapeliness, many foreigners buy Hanbok as a remembrance. Most of Korean often wears Hanbok on a Holiday such as Chusuk which is Korean Thanksgiving Day and Seolnal which is Korean New year day. There are different way to wear a hanbok between woman and man. I want to explain how to wear it, but I don’t know exactly. It is difficult even I’m Korean. In fact, Hanbok has a fault is difficult to move. When I wore a Hanbok, I couldn’t move my limb flexibly. But because of that problem, in recent, it is contrived a simplified version of the traditional Hanbok. Even though new version Hanbok is made by comfortableness, but it contribute to be general. These days, not only children but also adults usually wear their Hanbok on Holidays. I have a new one in my hometown, but it may not fit for me. I bought it when I was a middle school student. So, I’m thinking of buying a new Hanbok when I come back to Korea.
Also I want to give Hanbok for my international friends as a gift.
