Origin One: Mythology Version
It's said that this festival originated more than 800 years ago, on November 11, 1111, when there were a record-breaking eight bachelors.
The establishment of this day was by God's will. On the day Jesus was born, which is January 1, year 1 A.D., the first bachelor was also "born" (was Jesus really a bachelor?). Since then, every year on this day, it became a day for some bachelors to commemorate. However, it didn't truly become a festival until more than 1000 years later, on November 11, 1111.
