Couples

Couples in Korea take their couple status very seriously. Very. Seriously.

This cultural phenomenon manifests itself in various ways. For example, there are numerous couples celebrations -Valentine's Day and White Day are only the beginning. There's actually a couples event on the 14th of every month, each with a different theme (e.g. Photo Day, Green Day, Hug Day). Couples also mark and celebrate their days of being together, as in 100 days, 200 days, 300 days...

And then there are the ubiquitous couples clothes and accessories. Sweatshirts, caps, shoes, rings, cell phone charms... 

Tonight's photos depict couples undies (mainly because these are pics I had in my stash). I'll search for more couples items to photograph in the next few days and try to get them posted here soon. Shouldn't be too difficult -an entirely separate blog could be devoted to this topic.
