Is there any connection with Fed 14 or Valentine's Day?


[edit] Why "Strangely"?

Shouldn't the word "Strangely" be dropped. What's so strange about a hliday from Korea (or some other country) being adopted around the world (if in fact it has been. A short scan of the Web brings up lots of refs to the ROK custom but none of its having rooted elsewhere.)? Kdammers 05:09, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

This sounds like a crazy joke. Could be true, but it needs a source (preferably in a European language so that it can be verified) and a wording that makes more sense. --91.148.159.4 00:24, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

The Korean black day has inspired others around the world to adopt this holiday. An internationally renowned yo-yo player who goes by the nickname of Black has started an annual celebration of Black Day among yo-yo players, who celebrate their single status with black yo-yos and making web-pages around the world black.[citation needed] *The yo-yo black day resource site

It sounds crazy, but I live in Korea and it is true. They're good noodles, too...
