Our oldest son, Jeremy, came back from South Korea this week after teaching English over there for four years. We were glad to get him back, particularly after reading the day before he left about the North and South Korean armies trading shots again over the demilitarized zone. He was treated very well by his employer, BCM Educational Group, but he is ready to get on with the next phase of his life, which includes getting his computer network certification at our local community college and then bringing Bomina here to the States to join him. Jeremy and Bomina have been dating for nearly two years and their plans had been for him to go back to Korea next May or June and to get married in a traditional Korean wedding. They decided it would be easier for Bomina to get her visa if they were married now, so they got married in a civil ceremony a few weeks ago, but will still do the traditional wedding next spring. Meanwhile, poor children, they will have to be apart for 10 months, although hopefully, Bomina will be able to come here or Jeremy visit Korea around Christmas time. Bomina is a sweet girl and I think they will be very happy.

Congratulations! Wonderful photo!
It IS a great photo; congrats on the new daughter in law. Do you get to attend the Korean ceremony?
Congratulations!!!!
Congratulations to the happy couple!
(And parents!)
Wow!!! Chuke hamnida! (If memory serves, that means congratulations.) What great news. We can really relate to this news, having lived in Korea 5 years and participated in or attended many weddings. AND having accompanied Jeremy on his first trip to Korea. Very cool!
I've been away for a bit, so my congratulations are a bit behind the times. But congratulations and best wishes to all anyway.
