The korean wedding Culture


In my country, Korea, has unique wedding culture. In early 1900s, the western culture started to come into Korea. At that time, the number of Korean people who had western style wedding had increased. After the Korean War, in 1960s, people was trying to go back to our traditional. Finally, Korean wedding culture like as now we doing shows up. It has mixed with traditional way and westerns. They have celebrate eve right before the wedding day. In the evening, groom and his friends bring a big box containing wedding presents of bridegroom to bride. The bride's friends welcome them, and they are having a party at the bride's home. In the wedding day, they have western wedding march with a white wedding dress and a tuxedo. After the march, they have a simple traditional event with Korean wedding dress. The wedding culture has changed a lot for a century because of history of my country, but the meaning of that has not changed. They swear by the God for their marriage, and the guests are witnesses for them.
