The Wedding Day 1956

The Wedding Day is a fascinating film to watch, it was the first Korean film to win an international award which is something that drew my attention to it along with it being a 1950s Korean film.

The plot is fun and interesting, a family gets the opportunity to become in-laws with a prestigious family from the Bellflower Valley, Jinsa Maeng brags about marrying off his only daughter Gap Bun to the son of this family Mi Eon, however a rumour begins to go around that Mi Eon has a disability (they call him a cripple), due to this Master Maeng starts to wonder if he should marry off his only daughter to this 'cripple', the hatch a plan to instead marry off the maid Ip Bun who was promised to their servant Sam Dol. It's quite entertaining when the tides change and it turns out that Mi Eon is not a 'cripple' and Master Maeng has to marry off his servant anyway as he can't get his daughter back for the wedding in time.

I found the film to be quite an easy and entertaining watch and would recommend to anyone wanting to explore 1950s Korean cinema.
