Comedian Jo Se Ho celebrated his wedding at the Shilla Hotel in Seoul with around 900 stars from the entertainment world last month.
The extravagant event received press coverage at the time, but it was not the open-ended show of love between Jo and his non-celebrity bride that attracted the most attention, but rather the generosity of his celebrity mates.
The guests, Including celebrities like Yoo Jae-suk, G-Dragon, and Lee Dong Wook, add a heartwarming and cheerful atmosphere.
But what caught the eye, in particular, was the congratulatory money that was given by visitors, and even many friends have surpassed the normal 1 million won.
Jo Se Ho’s close friend Hong Jin Kyung mentioned the giving culture around the wedding on the YouTube channel “Face Genius Cha Eun-soo” on the 18th.

As for his own gift, Hong said he was prepared to donate over 1 million won and called Jo, a younger brother who had always been by his side.
“Se Ho is the person im always grateful for, Hong explained. Just those taxi rides he frequently takes for me alone are more than 1 million won. Shouldn’t I give that much?”
Another broadcaster, Park Myung Soo, agreed and planned to donate the same amount of 1 million won as well, joking that he should up it to 1.05 million won.
Hong also disclosed that he would match a donation by fellow comedian Nam Chang Hee, highlighting the lasting connection between old friends.
He made light of Jo’s upcoming bride and shared with the audience their similarities, such as being the same height, being born on the same birthday, and even sharing the same blood type.
Netizens noticed and praised the warmth of the celebrity friendship as well as the generosity welling up.
Public sentiments like “Thank you for this warm friendship” and “Jo Se Ho is going to be very happy for the rest of his life as long as there are friends at this level” highlight how the general public highly value the supportive community around the comedian.
