- Usually a Korean wedding ceremony is held at a private wedding hall.
-
- It is conducted by the bride or bridegroom's teacher or a distinguished person.
-
- When Koreans are invited to a wedding ceremony, they prepare a white envelope
with money in it.
-
- Marriage gifts are not common except very close friends.
-
- Most of the guests give a white money envelope to a receptionist at the wedding.
-
- The host makes a name list of all the people who give an envelope.
-
- If the host is invited to weddings of sons or daughters of guests, the same amount
of money is usually given to them.
-
- Weddings are big family events so Koreans give this 'congratulation money' to
help pay for the expenses.
-
- Sometimes it costs a lot of money for salaried workers especially when there are
many weddings during the wedding season.
-
- Another occasion for giving a white envelope with money in it is when people die.
-
- There is a special job related to marriage. It is called matchmaker.
-
- Matchmakers are middle-aged women who connect daughters of the rich with
promising young men like laywers and doctors.
-
- If the couple gets married, the matchmaker receives big commissions from both
families.
-
- Matchmakers have name lists of hundreds of young people.
-
- Of course, it is a tax-free business.
