A Sweet Day of Love in Korea 🍫
Nov. 11th Pepero Day is coming!
November 11th is a super special day in Korea! You’ve heard of Valentine’s Day in February, when people give chocolate to show their love, and White Day in March, when sweets are all the rage. But in November? It’s all about Pepero—yes, that famous chocolate-dipped snack stick.
Since Pepero looks like the number '1' with its long, stick shape, November 11th (11/11) became the perfect day to celebrate love and friendship with this treat. Now, it’s a unique part of Korean culture.
On Pepero Day, people give long, sweet Pepero sticks to show their feelings, whether it's to friends, significant others, or family. It’s a day full of happiness, excitement, and sweetness—almost like another Valentine’s Day in Korea. How about celebrating Pepero Day yourself this year? 😊
