짜장면 한그릇 추가

This Saturday is "Black Day" in Korea. A day to be "celebrated" with eating of Jjajangmyeon or maybe watching a "Black Day Concert". This concert is a special event organised by Hongik University's Gas Station and is meant for all the "solo" out there (솔로들을 위한 틀별 이벤트) or at least that is what the poster is trying to say. I like the idea of a "Black Day". I don't see it as promoting or celebrating singlehood but rather a day to be happy about your current state of being "love-less". It gives people without someone to love some reason to celebrate. Life needs balance like "Black Day".

  1. Sometimes, it is good to be without love because there will be no fight and no pain.
