And the winner of yesterday’s Valentine’s Day Opt-Out poll is….

(drumroll)

North Korea!

Congrats to my ingenious readers who guessed correctly that Kimchi & kisses don’t make snuggly bedfellows in North Korea.

But it’s much more than Kimchi-kisses that keeps North Koreans from celebrating V-Day love…

In place of Valentine’s Day, they instead celebrate ‘The General’s Birthday’ on February 16th.

A popular ‘Valentine’s’ gift between couples on this romantic special day is a Worker’s Party badge case.

To the Valentine’s Day Opt-Out runner-up, an impressed nod goes out to the 1 person who chose Uzbekistan!

How ever did you know that this nation views our lover’s holiday as “the work of forces with evil goals bent on putting an end to national values.”

In line with this belief, the government is attempting to cancel Valentine’s Day!

But for the rest of us…

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!

MAY YOUR ROMANCE BE SNUGGLY & YOUR KISSES, KIMCHI-FREE!
