Korea and Japan are very close to each other. So, we have many similar culture. Especially both country have same festival. We called this day is Children's Day. Korean Children's Day is on the 5th of may. This day is Korean official holiday.so, many parents take their children a theme park,a good restaurant,a beach or another special place. And they used to give a present.

Japan's Children's day is similar with Korea. But Japan has two kind of Children's day. One is Boy's day. This day's date is same with Korea's Children's day. They usually fly kites that they called KOINOBORY.
And another Children's day is Girl's day. They called HINAMATSRY. This day is on the 3rd of march. Japan's parents usually give a doll that they called HINANOBORY to their daughter. And they think Girl's day is more special than Boy's day.

We have same festival that Children's day. But, it's alittle different.
Especially, interesting and strange for me about in fact of Japan has two kind of Children's day. But I think girl's day and boy's day are More special than just Children's day for their memory.
