You don’t care at all? About what YOUR hanbok is going to look like? For our traditional Korean part of the wedding reception?
(Shaking head) Not really… you can have fun with it. Whatever is meaningful to you and your family. Whatever colours are significant. Whatever… I don’t know, whatever symbolism you need. That your side is going to recognise and feel satisfied… I don’t mind. I’ll just wear whatever you tell me to wear for those 5 minutes.
(Nodding) So… you’re going to pick my outfit then? For the Traditional Taiwanese tea ceremony part?
(Sigh) Do I have to? Can you ask the MC friend?!
Oh really?! You don’t even care what I wear when it’s YOUR Taiwanese tea ceremony?
Not really — I care about what I’M going to wear. I’m going to wear something red. Maybe with a bit of gold embroidery. But other than that — just ask the Taiwanese MC friend.
Oh…?! Okay? What goes well with red?
More red.
More red?!?!
Red or Gold. If I’m going to have gold embroidery on a red dress then you should wear GOLD.
Oh… GOLD…
Yes. It’ll look good. Okay. It’s decided. You’re wearing GOLD in the Taiwanese tea ceremony part of the wedding reception. I’ll wear a red dress with a bit of gold embroidery. That makes sense.
It does?
Yes… well… traditionally only the Emperor wears gold…
(Laughing) OOHOHOHHHHH I LIKE IT. But wait — is it too conceited?! Am I being a bit… cocky about this?
Imagine the “Emperor” kneeling down and serving tea to my parents in order to marry me…
(Smiling) Wow… okay…
Anyway it’ll be more modernised. You’re not wearing a literal Emperor costume! Just the gold colour is a subtle nod, it’s more of an Easter Egg. It doesn’t even have to mean anything at all. You suit gold. It’ll look better than red.
Oh… okay… whatever you say, My Love!
(Smiles)
