Jo Se Ho’s Enormous Wedding Costs: Here’s How Much He Spent for 900 Guests

On the morning of October 20, a lavish wedding took place as comedian Jo Se Ho tied the knot at Seoul’s Shilla Hotel, which boasts a grand hall named Dynasty.

The exclusive guest list aside, Pop Team Epic provided a 900-person dinner at the event, which also caught a lot of attention.

Jo, who has a non-celebrity girlfriend 9 years younger than himself as his wife, has a small gathering with friends from the entertainment industry to celebrate such an occasion.

Other highlights included Kim Bum Soo, Taeyang, and Gummy singing congratulatory songs.

Lee Dong Wook prepared a wedding speech while compassionately delivering the ceremony, which was led by Jeon Yoo Sung, Jo’s mentor.

The details of the extravagant wedding dinner course menu followed:

• Thyme-scented eggplant soup with feta cheese and tomatoes.
• Grilled salmon with Pernod vin blanc.
• CAB tenderloin steak with port wine sauce.
• Ending with a dessert mix of mascarpone vanilla cream and mocha mousse blancmange.

According to Sports Chosun, the Shilla Hotel, which has a reputation for exclusivity, charges about 22 million KRW (~ $16,400) just to rent the banquet hall. Given the approximate cost of 300,000 KRW ($225) per head for meals, food alone has come at a total of nearly 300 million Won (around $217,000).

After the ceremony, Jo took to social media and thanked their guests for blessing them on their big day. “We will grow old together and continue to love and support each other for the rest of our lives. May you continue to support us on our beautiful journey together,” he wrote

The newlywed couple is going to southern Italy for a ten-day honeymoon and then back to his new home in Yongsan, Seoul, where they will start their new life together, according to the report.
