Introduction to Korean traditional wedding:

Applicant: Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture, Jilin Province

For a long time, the Korean people used to practice "marriage between men and women", that is, the bridegroom held a wedding at the bride's home and stayed for several years, and then led his wife and children back to his home. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, influenced by Confucianism, the Korean Dynasty vigorously carried out the "Pro Ying" method of taking the bride back to the bridegroom's home on the wedding day. However, it was difficult to implement the method because of the resistance of traditional habits. Therefore, the combination of the "men returning to the women's home" method and the "Pro Ying" method created a compromise "semi Pro Ying" method: the bridegroom only stayed in the bridegroom's home for two days after the wedding, and led the bridegroom on the third day The bride returns to the bridegroom's house. After that, the way of "half Pro Ying" became the main marriage way of Korean people. Before 1950's, Chinese Korean marriage adopted two ways of "half Pro Ying" and "Pro Ying", while "half Pro Ying" was the main way. After 1950, it was unified as "Pro Ying" and has been used up to now.

The traditional way of marriage of the Korean nationality includes three parts: marriage negotiation, big gift and after gift. Among them, marriage negotiation includes checking Gong He (comparing the eight characters of the birth of the two men and women), writing marriage letters and Juanji (determining the date of marriage), etc.; big gift includes the bridegroom's giving gift box (gift box), laying a wild goose, making a obeisance to each other, the bridegroom's receiving table, etc.; after gift includes The bride goes to the bridegroom's house to receive a big table, and the next day holds a ceremony for the bride to see her aunt.

Korean traditional wedding is the concrete manifestation of Confucian culture, its form has distinct national characteristics, which can provide reference for the spread and development of Confucian culture and the study of Korean folk culture.
