"Once in a Life" extra money aimed at the prospective couple's psychology [Anchor Report]

There are a lot of people who went to the wedding this fall.

In fact, the increase in the number of monthly marriages compared to a year ago has been continuing for five months since April.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the wedding hall was closed one after another.

In fact, as of the end of last year, there were 733 wedding halls in Korea, a decrease of nearly 30% compared to 2017.

However, with the increase in marriages these days, some wedding halls have already seen their reservations for lunch on a popular autumn Saturday, which was already closed a year and a half ago.

In this situation, as the demand for marriage increases, of course, the cost of the wedding hall will also increase.

The average wedding hall rental amount in 2021 was only 68% of the cost of a coma, but this year it has risen to near the cost of a coma.

As the demand for marriage increases, related complaints are also on the rise.

Over the past three years, more than a thousand complaints have been filed with the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission.

Wedding halls were the most common with more than 500 cases, followed by wedding preparation agencies and filming.

On the other hand, the marriage preparation agency fee, which ranked second in the complaints by the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission, is controversial.

Have you heard of the dress fitting fee that a bride-to-be has to pay to try on her wedding dress, the early start fee that she has to pay when she gets her makeup done in the morning, and the purchase of the file to receive the original photo?

Even if prospective couples paid millions of won to sign a dress and makeup product contract with a wedding preparation agency, there was a constant problem that companies demanded such a nominal amount separately.

The Fair Trade Commission has taken measures to revise the so-called "Sudme Gapjil" terms and conditions.
