Birthday celebration traditions in East Asian countries (China, South Korea and Japan) and Lithuania

You you think that Western culture has influenced your country's traditions? If yes, then how? Have you found some examples in your life?

  1. I'm not sure what would be a traditional birthday in West, so it's kinda hard to say. Their birthdays differ a lot too :D but probably yes, idk what tho.
  2. In my opinion, the Western culture has definitely influenced my country's traditions, because birthdays were not celebrated in my country before. Also things such as singing "Happy birthday" or putting candles on a cake came from the Western culture and now are considered normal during birthdays.
  3. Not really interested in that.
  4. No
  5. I think yes
  6. Yes, with candle blowing.
  7. Tikrai taip. Senovėje, mano manymu, gimtadieniai nebuvo ypatinga šventė - susirinkdavo tik keli artimieji ir tiesiog pasibūdavo. Dabar kitaip - reikia linksmybių, daug valgio, dovanų tradicijos ir kt.
  8. I think yes. Music.
  9. I think not, and I did not find examples
  10. Well maybe. Like making parties, drinking alcohol.
