WEDDINGS ALMOST ALWAYS TAKE PLACE EARLY IN THE DAY
AND NEVER AFTER 2 O'CLOCK IN THE AFTERNOON BECAUSE
OF THE MISFORTUNE ASSOCIATED WITH DARKNESS IN KOREA.
IT IS ALSO A SIGN OF MISFORTUNE IF IT RAINS OR STORMS
ON THE WEDDING DAY.

A LADY ONCE TOLD ME TO SCHEDULE MY WEDDING CEREMONY
WHEN THE HANDS OF THE CLOCK WERE MOVING UPWARD, E.G.
6:30 P.M. INSTEAD OF 7:00 P.M. THE HANDS OF THE
CLOCK MOVING UPWARD SIGNIFIED THE BEGINNING OF A
BRIGHT, HAPPY FUTURE.

WHEN I GOT MARRIED, THE MINISTER HAD ONLY ONE REQUEST.
HE ASKED US TO GET MARRIED BETWEEN HALF PAST AND THE
HOUR. THE REASON HE WANTED THIS WAS BECAUSE HE SAID
THAT IF THE MARRIAGE TOOK PLACE DURING THE FIRST HALF
HOUR, IT WOULD SURELY FAIL, AS THE CLOCK WAS ON THE
WAY DOWN.
