Korean customs

Korean marriage is monogamous. According to the traditional custom, close relatives, consanguinity and surname are not married. It is a common custom that "men are in charge of the outside and women are in charge of the inside". Father-son relationship is the foundation of all interpersonal relationships. Value father and love filial piety, and the eldest son supports his parents. Old people in society are respected, and people despise unfilial people and behaviors. Residents in most areas were buried, while those scattered in towns were cremated.

The communication between girls and boys needs a "matchmaker". First of all, the man's family should let the matchmaker go to the woman's house to "accept it when it is good", which is similar to the "blind date" of the Han nationality. If satisfied, the boy will formally propose to the girl. If the woman agrees, the man's family will give her the "four pillars". Four pillars are written on a piece of paper with their names and stars (when they were born), and then the woman "vaults" with the four pillars of the girl. The so-called "vault" refers to whether the male and female zodiac signs are consistent but not consistent. If the zodiac signs of two people coincide, the woman will inform the man's family through the matchmaker that the harmony between the two people is opposite, and the man can "choose a date" to determine the wedding date and send a bride price to the woman's family, usually "green satin" and "red satin".

The wedding was held at the bride's house. The groom and his party came to the bride's house with the carved goose wrapped in a red envelope. The bride picks up the wooden goose with a wooden basin, and then lets the groom enter the guest room-"Sherang Room". The groom puts on a gauze hat and ties a crown belt. The bride, wearing a "cluster head" and a "Han shirt", walked into the firewood ceremony hall and held a wedding. Then the groom began to "enjoy the big table", that is, to taste. After the firewood ceremony, the two sides officially became husband and wife.
