Maybe "symbolizes" wasn't the best term to use, but still, there is truth in my sentence. I've read some books about Japan and articles that say that you shouldn't give anything that's wrapped in white or white flowers. I also found something about that in wikipedia:

In Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, and Japanese tradition, white is the color of mourning and death.

So basiclly what it is is that the girls give the guy they like chocolate hoping he'll accept it. And if he does thats good. Some guys like to compete and see how much chocolate they'll get. On white day the guys return the chocolate to the girl they were given chocolate by.

It'd be interesting if we had White Day here in the US, but Valentines' day is the girls' day already....

Yea thats true. But its an easier way of confessing your love.

Shockingly enough, only the women are the ones putting anything on the line. Men choose to either return the favor or not, but don't have to go through the humiliation of not having thier gesture returned.

No offense, but that sounds kind of pathetic to me that you need a certain day as an excuse for confessing your love.

I think it'd be nice if something like this were done in the U.S. (just my opinion)
