The Red String of Fate first appeared in ancient Chinese legend. According to the story, the Chinese gods would tie invisible string around the ankles of two people that fate would one day bring together. The invisible string would be their way of finding one another. Japanese culture adapted this myth, with their tradition believing that the string was tied around the pinky fingers of two lovers who were destined to meet.

Similar to the concept of soulmates, the string — tied on by the gods of love — would keep two souls connected no matter where they went or how far apart they were. If time or circumstance separated the two lovers, they would still be able to find their way back to one another. (Source)
