What does the color pink connote in Korea?

I've noticed lots of Santa decorations with pink suits instead of the red I'm used to. And pink ornaments. Pink Christmas cards. . .


So, in the States, red is more typical for Christmas decor. Red (there) is related to blood, and sacrifice, and passion.





So I was wondering about the preference for pink here. What is associated with pink?

What does the color pink connote in Korea?
Koreans like pink.





There's a bar here in my town that looks like a bottle of pepto-bismal vomited EVERYWHERE!





I don't think there's any deep significance... I think it's just a popular color. And like Boom pointed out, it's a much more "unisex" color in Korea than it is in the U.S.





My boss can rock a pink shirt and still look like the baddest mo-fo on the block.

Reply:I don't know except that every time we tease a KATUSA for wearing a pink shirt he insists it is a very manly color.


Of course he also claims the small handbag he puts his wallet into is not a purse...
