Tomorrow Japan and South Korea will celebrate White Day, an annual event when men are expected to buy a gift for the adored women in their lives. It is a relatively new【C1】______that was commercially created as payback for Valentine’s Day. That’s【C2】______in both countries, 14 February is all about the man.
On Valentine’s Day, women are expected to buy all the important male【C3】______in their lives a token gift; not just their partners, 【C4】______their bosses or older relatives too.

They started to market white chocolate that men could give to women on 14 March, as 【C10】______for the male-oriented Valentine’s Day.
It started with a handful of sweet makers’ producing candy【C11】______a simple gift idea. The day【C12】______the public imagination, and is now a nationally【C13】______date in the diary — and one where men are【C14】______to whip out their credit cards. In fact, men are now expected to give gifts worth【C15】______the value of those they received. What a complication: not only do men have to remember who bought them what, they have to estimate the value and multiply it by three.
