Anyone have any experience buying flowers from a flower shop. Do you need you purchase them early or anything if you're wanting to get them for White Day?

I think flower shops stock up and prepare for White Day as they know it's a 'holiday' when flowers are popular.

What's considered the typical western Valentine's Day was split into two days: Valentine's Day (Feb 14) where women give things to the men and White Day (Mar 14) where men give things to the women.

...and Black Day (Apr 14) where men and women who neither gave nor got sit alone and have a dish of black noodles... making it easy to identify the singles and perhaps take action for a better next year.

Here is my little secret...

KoreaFlowerMall.com

Saves you the trouble of having to try and find flowers available. Reasonable prices. You can even add stuff like teddy bear/chocolate/singing telegram with it. They can do same day delivery and come any hour you tell them.

The many Korean girls i've dated were in Canada only, and they either didn't know or give a rats @ss about their home country (that they left when they were pre-teens).

There is good and bad in that.

The Koren girls I've 'dated' in Korea mostly didn't speak english enough or had better things to do than talking Wink

Wasn't supposed to be offensive or smart-assed. Wink It's just that every year you'll see the same posts here on V-Day, W-Day plus the occasional remark on Bl-Day.

Hence my true astonishment.
