Question: What is the difference between 5.20 and 5.21?

Answer: The so-called 5.20 is the day for boys to confess, while 5.21 is the day for girls to confess.

Internet Valentine’s Day is a love festival in the information age, scheduled on May 20th and May 21st every year. The festival originated from the close connection between "520" and "Internet Lover" in singer Fan Xiaoxuan's "Digital Love", which is compared to "I love you", and the musician Wu Yulong's online song. Later, "521" was gradually given the meaning of "I do, I love you" by couples. "Internet Valentine's Day" is also known as "Auspicious Wedding Day", "Confession Day", "Coquettish Day" and "Courtship Day".

The First Internet Festival

In the early 21st century, an Internet festival quietly emerged in the Internet world, organized voluntarily by hundreds of millions of netizens - Internet Valentine's Day. This is the first fixed holiday in the virtual online world, scheduled on May 20th and May 21st every year, because the homophonic sounds of "520" and "521" are "I love you".

According to the different meanings of "0" and "1", which sound similar or pictographic, 520 is mainly a festival for women, while 521 is mainly a festival for men. Men can choose to confess "520" (I love you) to their wives, girlfriends or favorite goddesses on May 20th. May 21st is the day to confirm the answer. Women who are touched remember to express their love to their husbands, boyfriends or favorite girls. The male god replied "521" to express (I do, I love you).

Therefore, the "Internet Valentine's Day" on May 20th and May 21st every year[12] has also become an auspicious day for lovers to get together to register for marriage and hold a grand wedding banquet.

During the holidays, roses and teddy bears are sold in large quantities, restaurants and movie theaters are full, red envelopes with "5.20" or "52.0" are flying in WeChat groups, and holiday blessings in the circle of friends are accompanied by a sentence Love mottos, e-commerce companies also ask you "What are you waiting for if you are not married yet?" When you are walking on the road, you will see discounts at jewelry stores, gifts for wedding photography bookings, flower shops working overtime, and even milk tea shops have special prices! Sales of "520" gifts online are also booming. Cups, chocolates, puzzles, wooden combs, couple's shirts... there are all kinds of products. As long as they can have something to do with couples, merchants will use "520" to promote them.

Some single people without boyfriends or girlfriends have also created many classics, of course, which must be full of jealousy. Ever since, a 520 event has turned into a national carnival, with people who love it and people who don’t love getting involved.

Most of the people who pursue online Valentine’s Day are under the age of 30. They are easy to accept new things and spend most of their free time online. Their familiarity with the Internet is equivalent to being familiar with the road in front of their homes. The fans of 2.14 Valentine's Day are a combination of three generations: old, middle and young. People over 30 years old who are more influenced by tradition are more inclined to a Western-style Valentine's Day.
