What is the process of funeral ceremony in Korea?

Funerals in Korea, like other customs, are deeply influenced by Confucianism. The main process of funeral is to summon the soul, collect the body, tell the funeral, wash the body, bury the body, dress and bury the body. The awake period is 3, 5, 7 or 9 days. At the same time, we should chant scriptures and burn incense. A monument should be erected in front of the tomb of the deceased, and meals should be served in front of the spirit every day in the first month. A month later, every morning on the first and fifteenth day of junior high school, lasting for one year. On the first anniversary of the death of the deceased, there will be a sacrificial ceremony called "Xiaoxiang", and on the second anniversary, there will be a sacrificial ceremony called "Daxiang". At present, some customs have been modified and simplified. Today, people who observe filial piety often wear plain clothes and linen hoops.
