- Join us for a traditional wedding ceremony at the museum as part of In Grand Style: Celebrations in Korean Art during the Joseon Dynasty. The Asian Art Museum in collaboration with the Korea Cultural Heritage Foundation presents a special reenactment of an elite class (yangban) wedding, illuminating the elaborate procedures involved in this ceremony. The reenactment will illustrate how celebrations in Korea's royal court influenced those of the elite class during the Joseon dynasty (1392--1910), as well as reveal a centuries-old tradition that continues in Korea today.

My Korean student told me that the traditional wedding costume of the bride (called hwarot) is pretty heavy and so with the head dress they wear, too. That's why the bride has her own helpers to assist her in the ceremony. Nowadays, Korean women prefer to have a Western style wedding ceremony. It's nice to learn other countries' traditional wedding customs and traditions.
Yeah it's really nice to learn others tradition and culture but at the same time we should never forget our tradition and culture because that's our culture if we shouldn't follow the tradition who will teach the next generation after that all they don't know what is there culture and tradition . Even other countries also doesn't know about the original culture . And next our culture and tradition not exist . Hope everyone should follow there culture and tradition .every culture and tradition will last long ☺️
Some Californian brides have to wax their whole body, get fillers, botox, bleach their hair, stuff into a corset & wear uncomfortable heels for the duration of their whole wedding. Not to mention that the bridal gown is pretty HEAVY, & you need HELPERS to help her get dressed, compared to her normal tee or yoga sweats.
What is the name of groom's clothes
@@TaeTae-ev9op I think it's HANBOK
@@ashutoshmandal6611 yes it is called Hanbok
Reading some of these comments, I find them a tad bit ignorant. This video is made to highlight a tradition of another country, a culture of another people. Its ok to ask questions about it, to be curious and even to not understand certain aspects. However, I don't feel it's ok to degrade it or to openly voice your dissatisfaction because it doesn't conform to a culture you are used to.
Each country had and still has it's own culture. Yes, arranged marriages are sad in a lot of cases but a lot of cases also work out well and in today's era, they are less common. Even in Korea, most couples have met before they marry, if not date for years before marriage.
I didn't mean any offence, I just wish to ask:
If you do not have a positive comment, you do not have to comment. If you do not understand, ask genuinely and someone will answer you because knowledge is power. Please be respectful to other cultures.
Edit: Just a note, if I am not mistaken, this type of wedding ceremony was only for high ranking families such as royalty or ministers. The normal working poeple did not have such weddings as they were too expensive.
Perfectly said 👏 👌
No. In the past, weddings were very important to Koreans, so ordinary people could have weddings like aristocrats do. Commoners were able to contact state agencies and rent items for the wedding.
@@hanashin8534 that is very interesting for me to learn
Actually the government allowed commoners to dress up like aristocrats and even gave them money. Aristocratic marriages were grander and royal marriages have even more complicated clothing and rituals
@@orionfernandes4587 interesting
Bro the wedding dress blew me away! It’s so gorgeous, and vibrant
So complicated. Wow. Rehearsal must have taken a long time to learn.
the guy in the front whos wondering around tell people what to do so no rehearsal XD
Here i am looking at this video because I wull have this wedding ceremony in Korea with 100 family members next week.. xD
Some things are similar to Hindu marriage rites, idk but as a whole, it feela uniquely Korean and enchanting.
It's so complex but so interesting thank you for teaching us this culture !
So many steps !!
Rather have this as my wedding than a western one.
Stunning.
Japanese and Chinese traditional weddings are equally as beautiful. I don't understand why they would ever want to copy boring Western style weddings.
Nice video on Traditional Korean wedding, thanks for sharing.
I was searching this type of video ,I love to explore others culture it's looks so fantastic 😍
멋지네요! It looks nice!!
So beautiful
its so intricate and fitting of korea.
marriage is a sacred vow ♡ love it
정말멋있네요
Beautiful
Love korean music
Authentic Confucian rites with distinctive Korean elements.
It's so complex. But I want my wedding to be like that.
Hah army? This is a very very traditional wedding, historical rather. If you watch some traditional 결혼식 vlogs then you’ll see there are much fewer, less detailed steps. 💜💜
I hope you’re not the type who screams “cultural appropriation”, because if you do, that’d be hypocritical. For me, I don’t care if nonKoreans go for a traditional Korean wedding, but some idiots will always try to say you have to be a certain ethnicity to take part or get inspired by a culture. Not saying you can’t disrespect a culture but “cultural appropriation” is a joke.
@@Laura-Yu lol I've seen u before 🤣. And cultural appropriation isn't a joke, it's just complicated.
Wow 😍🥰💕
It's like Chinese wedding with unique Korean twist. I'm fortunate enough to shoot for one Korean wedding and the dress worn by the couple is extremely delicate and beautiful. Pity that as mainland Chinese we have lost our own culture and the current proceedings are mixture of east and west and the old and modern, although trends are gravitating to the ancient customs more. Hopefully one day we will found the lost culture and uphold it as the Koreans have.
J the on looker not Chinese, it's Korean.
J the on looker Koreans may keep their wedding ceremonies, but in all other ways they are very Westernised
@@jacohan4028 They didn't say it was
Lucid_OnLooker excuse me, but what are you talking about the unique Korean twist? The whole thing is different
How is it similar to Chinese brah
Beautiful 💜🇳🇵
❤❤❤❤
What type of mat are they sitting on?
The man who is moving around who is he ?
Why is there 2 hens? (My sincere apology if I was disrespectful 🙏🏼)
I just fast forwarding it to 2x
Daniel Henney and SooYoung Choi / Ru
thanks for the description,very interesting.Best wishes for the couple: wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness...but bu neyin kafası?! 😁
i need to know what the guy in the middle somewhat like a priest is saying but i have no idea
He is annoucing the steps what they are doing.
Sorry, but what is the Korean name for these straw mat Koreans use for covering the floor? I'd love to get one!
i think it is called a gat, not sure though lol
It's Dot-ja-ri 돗자리 ( straw mat )
Leonor Chiuz Gat is the hat worn by the men.
안녕하세요!
What kind of symbolism does it have when the bride is washing her hands??? I am new please! Helpppp!
I am not good in korean so english please. Thanks
To cleanse her 'body and soul' - the same for the male :)
Don't they normally do the thing with dates or something to show how many kids they will have?
Yes I saw on this other video of a Korean wedding it was the parents who throw the dates in a white scarf :)
Yes, but in the modern days it’s much less common to do so
@@penulemalu31 That's for later. The couple haven't even official "met" each other yet!!!
Why are the bride's arms held up by the attendants in that way? To cover her face ?
To cover here face, but mostly to help as the dress is made up from many layers of clothes making it hard to stand up without falling over.
costumes are heavy too
It's no walk in the park keeping your arms up in that ritual posture with the heavy, voluminous sleeves. Aaaaah the beauty of East Asian custom!
The costume is heavy and the head is heavy. In the past, he wore a wig called "Gachae" because of his black and glossy abundant hair, but it was so heavy that there is a record that a young bride broke her neck while having a wedding ceremony. That is why helpers are needed.
the wedding felt like it was so strict..like Indian weddings r strict too..but we do all kinds of stupidity during the wedding like shouting inappropriate things and hiding the shoes of the groom..and all of that is fun..but this wedding's strictness was 10000!
strictness level was 10000000
Shruti J It's part of their culture when it comes to weddings. We Americans tend to do childish and stupid shit during our weddings. Like throwing the bouquet into a crowd and watch them try to kill each other over it.
Indian armyyy
I guess in Korea, wedding is a happy ceremony, but it feels like starting a whole new life with your husband/wife.
Also its a HUGE honor to the family so I could understand why the ceremomies were so strict
But wedding for peasants were small and fun
This is just before everyone gets drunk on soju during & after the banquet, including the grandparents, sing noraebang/ karaoke & dance in wild shamanic abandon.

Is it ok to do this ceremony if youre not korean?
It varies on who you ask, personally as a half korean, I think it is perfectly fine for others that are non-korean to do a traditional korean wedding, as long as you are being extremely respectful and being immersed in the korean culture.
If you marry a Korean in Korea, then yes. Otherwise a strong hell no!
I mean, if you think that this culture suits one of your most important day in life, why not? It’s beautiful, even if a foreigner does it. I would actually feel so proud when foreigners want to do this!
I mean, are you marrying a Korean? Or at least hiring Korean wedding planners or stylists & a Confucian priest to assist with the ritual? You can't just hire a hanbok & buy a wooden goose from eBay & call it a day, hon.
@@OH_jiwon LOL that I agree with.
idk if anyone will read this, but what if the bride isn't from korea? then who's house do they enter?
Uh, it's still the bride's house if a couple decides to do a traditional Korean style wedding.
Would still be the bride's. But this is OLD OLD tradition, and not as closely followed nowadays. It's typically in a venue now since not many Koreans own a house big enough to hold this many people x'D (similar to Japan where the country is small in comparison to its population so most people have large apartments>houses).
You know what , in india the marriage ceremony lasts for almost a week
Where each day has a different occasion to occur .
And till now our family hasn't seen such a marriage like of my parents.
As it had to happen because after four years of my brother I had to born $

I LIKE KREAN WEDDING BEETER THAN WASTERN ONES
0:23 caption says: followed by a man name key dog a bomb.
I feel a little sad they didn't have any contact, any at all even at the end, they didn't even get to hold hands or anything!
+Linda Liriel Because the whole ceremony is suppose to be sacred, therefor not kissing, hugging of touching between the groom and the bride should happen during the ceremony.
+tsukasa1608 "During" the ceremony I get, it's the end, the conclusion that I felt a little anticlimatic and sad. They're husband and wife and they dont even get to hold hands when they become so!
Linda Liriel Well, the culture is very different in the East compare to the West, you might felt sad but we think it's appropriate.
So what? I didn''t say it was wrong, just that it made me sad!
Linda Liriel I said, "the culture is very different in the East compare to the West", not saying that what you think is wrong.
5:05 I was like : eeh what.
They thought it was kind of unlucky. I'm not sure why. In ancient Korea, people didnt date as much. Their family just went like: you marry this person
And the son/daughter's like: ok
Come on, don’t be the ignorant one. These times were different. We all have different cultures, okay?
Even in Europe. It was same in the old times
I guess this is for a royal wedding right
No this is just for normal people. The royal wedding is more extravagant
It's for normal people.
Normal RICH people, or the elite Yangban class. LOL.
Beautiful tradition. I hope Koreans will preserve their precious tradition and culture instead of becoming wannabe whites. Today in a hurry to become white, many Koreans look down on their age old tradition and religion.
wanna be white? you mean being modernized?
Yes , i hope this so.....
Preach!!!
Wow, calling Koreans “wannabe white” when they take inspiration from anything western. You fail to see your ignorance.
gwajadanji nah being morderised doesn’t mean being white
kakaantok panoorin 😅✌ tagal ng ceremonies nila mabuti at modern days na ngayon 😂😂✌
how can u marry someone you have never met .....
In the old time, it was normal in everywhere in the world.
It’s normal in India even today
YG did the music?? are we talkin about the same YG??
lol...let me know.
This isn't a real wedding is it?
No, this is probably an exhibition showing at a korean history centre
Arent korean weddings public?
The guy in sky blue is blocking the view. So annoying that he keeps walking. He doesn't do anything .
He's literally leading the ceremony?? He's in charge of making sure everything is done right?? I'm sorry that you can't see, you so very important foreigner. Boohoo. Let's change our whole culture just for you. /s
@Shriya Bhan I don't understand what you mean
@Shriya Bhan 네 맞습니다?
@Shriya Bhan 뭐래 왜 확인해야지 당신은 분명히 한국인 아니잖아서
@Shriya Bhan 공부 잘 해. 당신이 분명히 막 시작했으니까.
It's sad to see how traditional wedding is now being replaced by majority of influenced Christian wedding......
Brides wedding dress looks like it’s heavier than the bride herself. Dress looks like was shipped in a heavy duty shipping container and carefully forklifted to the brides house.
😂😂😂
Here I am imagining my Korean wedding with my bias Jungkook... Lol you are free to think of me as a psycho😆
Bruh-

Thats kinda weird, but okay

기독교 비추
Allmost all Koreans have this as part of their wedding-- all the ones I have been to and I am Korean who was born in Korea and have lived abroad. King Sejong exalted G-d in heaven, as the descendents of Shem (No-Ah's son that did right and thus, everyone would follow after the G-d of Shem or Shen-Di in Chinese. Koreans are a little younger than the Chinese and about 150-300 years apart from Abraham. This put them in a unique position because the rest of the world, including the gentiles or the 'whites'worshipped pagan gods (e.g. days of the week, named after stars and planets they worshipped and designated day, as well as the names of the months named after gods who are not gods, e.g. january, feb, etc...) -- hence they flourished in the arts, sciences, and literature. They were first in the world to come up with the type cast to create books, parchement for paper made of treated mulberry bark -inner part, silk, Han Gul which came during this dynasty and is heralded the most logical language created by man by Unesco, and others. In fact they in addition to China were 300 years more advanced than the rest of the world that was unknown to each other. Korea chose to remain a hermit nation to preserve their one God, His commands, and their ways to ward off evil because G-d said intermarrying with those with other gods would bring in evil and their influences. This unique position placed them in a key position to observe their younger relatives the tribe of Judah and the coming Messhiah. Korea believes that Yesu is the Messhiah and have lead the charge to tell Israel that He is and how fulfilled the requirements of who the Messhiah would be. The reason they did not kiss or hold hands is because purity and holiness is something that G-d required in marriage. Kissing and holding hands in public was a practice common amongst gentiles or 'whites' because they worshipped gods that focused on fertility, lust, and unholy practices. That is why most of the eastern world prohibits kissing in public like Dubai and believe it or not, Korea up until this decade. They still do not-- the most it will ever be is a peck but it is rarely seen.
thats an exaggeration. Most Koreans are agnostic/atheist
+Great Siam no, it is not brainwashing. Koreans knew of one God 5000 yrs ago and whereas American evangelicals have roots in one God 1500 yrs ago. Big difference. Before that they had a culture ignorant of a Messhianic belief or God.
+HelloMyNamelsBanana you wish :)
Ergo around 70% of Koreans are NOT Christian.
Ergo en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_South_Korea
...I'm trying to be culturally respectful here. But you lost me "And now the Groom rotates the wooden goose 270 degrees."
Throwing a bouquet of flowers & expecting all the the unmarried women to fight over it, with the winner predicted to be married next, is EQUALLY BIZARRE, hon.
😂😂
Their oldest neo-confucian culture is gone or destroyed by evangelical and western culture...
right
Not fully, it's been preserved by national traditional center or such big families like Andong Kim, Gyeongju Lee etc
Their traditional clothes are similar to ming dynasties imperial clothes
Because China has been stealing Korean culture for thousands of years.
If you mean the groom's, that is King's officials costume and it did come from medieval china (maybe Song?). But other than that, everything is korean native
@@seha4445 LAWL. Korea was clearly a vassal state during Yuan & Ming China. You think it's Korean fashion gaining popularity in China instead of the OTHER way around. Go look a a real map & read a REAL history book, hon.
@@OH_jiwon LAAAAWL, sure. Keep telling yourself that, dear. I bet all these Hanja names in this traditional "Korean" Confucian wedding were coined by Koreans & NOT the Chinese, huh.
And the officiator is LITERALLY speaking mostly Sino-Korean throughout the whole ceremony, aka CHINESE pronounced in the Korean way.
Why is he saying 임주 (飲酒) instead of 술을 드십시오 in proper polite & native Korean?
Are you saying Korea coined all the words to be spoken at a wedding/ Confucian jesa & then China copied it...??? LAAAAWL your own language already speaks volumes of the cultural REALITY.
@@Kevin-br6wd It's Ming style as this is a Joseon period reenactment. It would be Song style if it were Goryeo period.It's the only time commoners could dress up like an official/ mandarin, just like fancy westerners get to wear a tux at their wedding & the bride a long gown like a princess.
The Korean bride's hwarot is thoroughly Korean in style, as women always played with fashion much more than the men. So you could say the men's robe is very conservative, & yes, it has very obvious Korean elements (the gat hat; the silhouette of the robe is more distinctly "Korean" than Ming Chinese), it did not change that much from standard Ming dynasty fashion.
