Japan celebrates it's White Day every March 14, exactly a month after Valentines Day. White Day is where the men's turn to give something to women.

That's when it's payback time, and the men are expected to return the favor. It's also another day that stores just giggle with glee as men go bananas spending copious amounts of Korean won on chocolate.About 80% of the people who work at my campus are female so that means in typical White Day tradition it is customary for me to purchase candy or chocolate for students and staff (including Devante of course). Here are my observations of the situation in the streets of Mokdong, around our work.On my way to buy chocolate (and triangle kimbap), check out the exterior of Family Mart all decked out....okay, so Family Mart didn't have the gimbap flavors I wanted.
