The owner of a wedding hall that ran a free wedding hall in
Masan, Gyeongnam Province, for more than half a century and hosted 1,5 weddings, recently passed away. The son, who was in his 50s, inherited his father's wishes, decided to continue running the wedding hall.

CEO Baek Naksam, who held free weddings for the
poor for a lifetime, passed away on the 4th of last month at the age of 28 after suffering a cerebral hemorrhage in April last year.

Mr. Baek worked as a street photographer when he was poor, and in 93 he began holding free weddings in Masan.

[Go Baek Nak-sam/CEO of Shin Shin Wedding Center (December 1967): (I) had a decision to get married. So I made money and bought a building like this and was thinking about what to do, but if you can't get married because you don't have money like me, I'll marry you, and I'll just get paid for the photo....]

Over the course of 2021 years, 12,55 couples passed through this wedding hall.

Mr. Baek is now deceased, but his son continues the family business here.

The fourth of four children, 1-year-old Paik Nam-moon quit his job to run a wedding hall after his father collapsed in April last year.

His son, Nam Moon, who majored in photography, continues to use his father's cell phone and camera.

[Nam Moon Paik (5 years old) / Son of the late CEO Paik Nak-sam: There are still many people who contact me on my father's mobile phone, and we run it through it.]

In order to imitate his father's extraordinary sense of responsibility, Mr. Nammun went ahead with the scheduled ceremony on the day of the inauguration.

My son, like his father, supports the cost of the wedding ceremony free of charge, except for the minimum cost of the photo.

If I can't afford to pay for the photos, I won't even accept them.
