marry

When young Korean men and women are engaged in the same job or study, they must first express their feelings to their old people, and then the man's parents will take their sons to the woman's house to propose marriage. If the woman's parents refuse to see her, it means that the marriage is not harmonious. If the old people of both sides meet, young men and women can participate, indicating that there is hope for success in marriage. If both parents agree, the young man kowtows to the woman's parents first, and then the young woman kowtows to the man's parents. Young men and women should also make it clear that they are willing to support the elderly on both sides. At this point, the marriage is settled.

After the engagement, choose an auspicious day. The man brought food to the woman's house, and the woman invited relatives and friends to drink together. As night fell, Fang walked out to play music. Dance together, regardless of gender or age. Only when the woman's parents leave home indicates that her daughter is about to leave home and get married.

Koreans don't have the bad habit of asking the man for property, but the man will buy some clothes and give what the girl likes as a pledge of engagement. At the wedding, both men and women prepared rich banquets. The man first prepares an ox cart with a new quilt on it. The groom, together with two or three bridesmaids, puts on a dress with red flowers on the chest and goes to the woman's house to pick up the bride. At the woman's house, the groom was first pushed into an empty room-there was a big banquet in the room, and the woman poured the groom three glasses of wine. Then the groom will choose some food and wine, wrap it with a piece of white paper, bring a bottle of white wine, and ask someone to send it back to his home, indicating that the marriage is happy and the hostess is very entertaining. Then the woman gave the groom a bowl of rice with three eggs buried in it. The groom will leave half a bowl of rice and an egg for the bride, symbolizing that there will be a pot of rice to eat in the future, sharing weal and woe, and Yong Cheng is a good couple. The best man will also choose some dishes to take home during the dinner to show his happiness.

After the ceremony, the bride and groom bowed to the old man and held Xie Yucheng. Then the bride gets on the bus with the dowry and goes home with the groom.

On the way home, the driver deliberately drove the car into the horizontal ridge and let it blow, and the drivers in the same industry laughed their heads off. When the bus entered the village, the villagers wore national costumes and greeted the bride with songs and dances. At this time, the man presented the driver with a small table of dining tables. After the banquet, the driver turned around the village several times and then took the opportunity to drive to the groom's house. After the bride and groom get off the bus, they step into the house to hold a wedding ceremony, which is similar to the ceremony at the woman's house. After the ceremony, all the men, women and children present were singing and dancing together. At this time, the bride and groom's "three questions and three answers" include words such as respecting the old and loving the young, and making vows to each other. After the banquet, the guests return and the bride and groom enter the bridal chamber. The marriage is over.
