Pepero = Pocky...
Pepero (빼빼
로
) is a cookie stick dipped in chocolate made by
Lotte Confectionery Company
in Korea. It was inspired by the Japanese
Pocky
made by
Glico.
Pepero Day
... November 11th is today! The date 11/11 resembles four Pepero sticks. An informal version of Valentine's Day, it's observed by Korean couples who exchange
Pepero sticks
and other romantic gifts.
In Japan, a
Pocky Day
was started but it failed to match
Korean-like popularity.
