And when normal people use the red ink, They have to have a punishment. And the punishment was to die. So people think "oh , if I use my name in red ink, I will die". So east asian think that if we write our name in red ink, Then we will die. So this is the story of the red ink What do you think? Do you write your name in red ink? Then I prefer not to do that.

Good evening Warren!^^
Actually, we do not write our names in red ink. People usually prefer to write their names in black or blue ink. It's my first time to heard about the story of red ink and it really interests me. :) Thank you for informing me about that and I will never write my name again in red ink. Haha! Maybe in purple ink because it's my favorite color. :) Goodnight!^^ |
