Weddings in Korea

In Korea, weddings are almost the same as in the U.S.A.now, but traditional weddings are very different. First, the groom and bride wear the traditional Korean tuxedo, Han-bok,which is very colorful; red,blue,green,white,etc...Second, they stand face to face. The groom can look at the bride, but she can't look at him because she hangs her head down. Third, after the wedding, their parents throw jujubes to the groom and bride. This means that they'll have lots of children. Finally, they kiss with a jujube between their mouths. These are just some parts of traditional Korean weddings. In my opinion, traditional weddings are very different from modern weddings, but
they have their own interesting activities.

  • Hi J.D.,

    You describe a traditional Korean wedding very well. Do you think you will have a traditional wedding or a western style wedding?
