In Japan, during New Years, everyone sends Post Cards or happy new years wishes to everyone else. Somewhat akin to Christmas cards, the New Years card is a postcard. During New Years stores stock up on printable postcards and it is popular to design your own with a personal picture or graphic. I believe post cards are also used in other contexts (new baby, graduation, etc). “The whole idea behind a “post card” is to get them while you’re on vacation” – That statement is biased towards western countries.
