Today is Pepero day, a day invented because "Pepero" spelled in Korea looks like 11/11. Kind of. Anyway, this is so much more of a Hallmark day than Secretaries Day, Paraprofessional day, etc. The company that makes Pepero, Lotte, makes a mint, because the entire holiday involves around people exchanging Pepero. Not even individual sticks-whole packages!

Here's some more info from Wikipedia.
