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?

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.

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...

if mom put on bed i wear. means is not thinking thing. just wear.
