K-Drama Wedding Scenes: Tying The Knot With A Twist

In a recent episode of "Fated To Love You," there's a wedding scene in which the groom, played by Jang Hyuk, is somewhat conflicted. When asked to confirm his wedding vows he is less than enthusiastic. He casually says yes until his grandmother insists he respond in the proper fashion. Then he shouts out the vows he does not yet believe in.

It's a funny scene and the fact that he's getting married is not really a spoiler as that is what the plot is about.

K-drama weddings can be a lot of fun.

"Emergency Couple" started out with Choi Jin Hyuk and Song Ji Hyo in wedding clothes running away from their pursuers. They got married by interrupting a church service in progress but since the minister knew them he could not refuse. They didn't think things through before they got married but fortunately they got a second k-drama chance.

"Mary Stayed Out All Night" contains one of the more impulsive and yet also one of the more carefully thought out weddings. In that drama Moon Geun Young pretend marries Jang Geun Suk to keep her father from marrying her to Kim Jae Wook. But it doesn't work. But their marriage ceremony does not turn out the way the parents imagine it would.

The comedy starts out with Moon Geun Young standing at the altar. And even though either groom has a lot to recommend him, it's not a dream but a nightmare.

K-drama weddings are good for all sorts of surprises. In "The Woman Who Still Wants To Marry," Park Jin Hee finds out that her ex-boyfriend is dating her current boyfriend's mother. In "Personal Taste" Son Ye Jin learns that her friend and ex-roommate is marrying her boyfriend, the man who dumped her only the night before. And she learns this while Lee Min Ho is watching her be humiliated. In Son Ye Jin's dazed state she breaks up the wedding.

Weddings that almost happened are also found in k-drama plots. "The Master's Sun" almost had a wedding in its first episode but the groom was stolen away from the undeserving bride by his memories of a ghost. Not a moment too late he realized that she was the woman he really loved.

K-drama weddings range from glamorous full-scale pageantry, as seen in "Empress Ki," to the most casual exchanging of vows. They range from funny to tragic, as in "Bridal Mask," but they are always entertaining.
