I’m finally able to announce it to the world – I’m pregnant and due in November 2019! Junkyu and I are so excited and it sometimes still doesn’t feel real. We have been married for three years now and I’ve had baby fever for a while. I knew I didn’t want us to have kids […]

The video of our American wedding in October was finally released! Hope you enjoy! Find me on:
Wedding Planning from Abroad
In about two weeks, I’ll be leaving for my hometown. I haven’t been back to the U.S. in 2 years, so I’m excited to eat and shop (mostly for books and shoes, since my size is so elusive here in Korea) and see my friends and family! Junkyu will come about two weeks later and […]
Trip to Jinju and Busan! – 진주 부산 여행!
I’m posting this really late, but I wanted to share our adventures in Jinju and Busan! Junkyu had to work in Jinju early one morning, so we drove down, got a hotel room, and stayed the night. Then we went sight-seeing after he got off work. We saw Jinju Fortress 진주성 before driving down to […]
Move over Language Barrier – How Food Can Affect an International Marriage
My husband Junkyu and I have been married for over a year, and we still face bumps in the road when it comes to deciding on what to eat. We aren’t alone – many people I know who are also in international relationships face the food obstacle sooner or later, and it isn’t always easy […]
Going to the Gym in Korea
My husband and I had been feeling guilty about not being very active for a while, so we joined a gym! We joined in January, which is obviously a popular month for people to suddenly start setting goals for themselves to get in shape. But we are committed to going together and alone if our schedules […]
The First Year of Marriage – Part 1
Today marks three months since our wedding day. Time seems to fly by…I can’t believe it’s already July. So much has happened since our wedding already, and looking back, I am proud of all the challenges we have conquered. There is an American TV program that I love to binge on called Marriage: The First […]
Wedding Rings (and why my husband doesn’t wear his)
About two months before the wedding, I asked Junkyu if we could look at wedding bands, but we didn’t see anything we like until we made an appointment for our pre-wedding photos. There was a woman there who was representing a jewelry store, and told us she would give us a discount and free pieces of […]
Wedding Album Photos – 웨딩 앨범 사진
We just went back to our wedding venue to pick up three copies of our wedding album! Our friends took the pictures and video during our wedding, but afterwards, the venue’s photographer took pictures of the two of us, as well as our family and friends. The woman who did my hair and makeup is […]
Wedding Present – Bicycles! 자전거
In Korean culture, couples usually get money instead of gifts from wedding guests. There are exceptions, (a few of our friends gave us gifts) but my mom was very adamant that she wanted to buy us a gift. We thought about it for a while, but couldn’t decide. We wanted something practical, useful, and something […]
