Talk about wedding guests in Korea.

At most Korean wedding, dozens of people are invited. Even large-scale wedding with over 400 guest are run-of-the-mill. In addition to close family, acquaintances and friends are all invited. Very often, the parents of the betrothed invite more guest than the groom and the bride. Wedding invitations are sent out to everyone before the wedding. They might be delivered person-to-person, or by post. These days, there are also online invitations. The links are sent to the guests by messenger app. When guests attend a wedding, they sign the guest registry and give a monetary gift. The amount depends on the degree of intimacy with the bride or groom. These days, small-scale weddings are gaining on larger weddings. In these cases, only close friends and family are invited.

I have a great news! I'm getting married next month.

Wow, congratulation! You must be really busy these days.

I am. Here's your invitation. Do you think you can come?

Are you kidding? I wouldn't miss it for the world.
