A Very Korean Wedding

Two of our good friends, Insung and Soyeong, got married exactly one week after we did. Their wedding was a normal,
modern Korean wedding.













If you can't tell, Soyeon used to be a model.

We took pictures with Insung and his grandma. She didn't really know what was going on at the time.








Weddings here are generally held in wedding halls. They have a full support staff making sure the pictures come out great. I managed to snap a picture without that staff in the picture. It's a kind of cold, impersonal event. People are chit chatting, and the ceremony is really happening just for the photo op. It's an entirely different animal from US weddings. All weddings are really there for photographs, but we're a little less obvious about it.


In the end, Soyeon thwarted Insung's attempt to kiss her. We all had a pretty good laugh about that.
