South Korea's top transgender beauty ties knot
Sat May 19, 4:26 PM ET
SEOUL (AFP) - South Korean transgender beauty Harisu tied the knot here Saturday with her boyfriend singer, pledging to become a "sexy and caring" wife.
Harisu, 32, married 27-year-old rap singer Micky Chung in an upmarket hotel in Seoul. She has been dating the singer since 2005 after they met online.
The marriage ceremony was carried out by Kim Suk-Kwon, a surgeon who performed Harisu's male-to-female sex reassignment surgery in late 1990s.
"I'll become a housewife who is cooking well, sexy and caring," a beaming Harisu told journalists before the wedding ceremony.
"We originally planned to adopt 10 children but decided to settle for only four kids because of the objections from our parents," she said.
Accompanied by both sets of parents, they will leave for the Thai resort island of Koh Samui on Sunday for a honeymoon.
Harisu is the stage name of the transgender entertainer who was born Lee Kyung-Yup.
She made her name by featuring in an advertisement for a cosmetics company in 2001.
She has since branched out into music and acting, producing five albums and starring in a film, Yellow Hair II.
In December 2002, the Incheon District Court recognised her as legally female and she changed her official name to Lee Kyung-Eun. |

| Far out. What would it take for you to marry someone who described him/her/itself as "legally female?" |

Oh, just the normal combination of factors. You know -- mutual trust & respect, true love, insane amount of cash, loaded revolver to my head. |

All right, I am biting this one. What would it take for you to marry a "legally-male" mate? I can imagine... |

Gary Busey is a nut...and I mean that in the nicest way possible...that's why I could see him pulling something like that off....
As to what it would take for me to marry a "legally male" male....
I dunno. I suppose I don't see what the big deal is. The only major downside is that having kids would be a whole lot more difficult. |

Two questions:
1) Can anyone perform a wedding ceremony?
2)Why would anyone go on a honeymoon with both sets of parents? Fun times! |

My understanding is that in Korea, a wedding does not have to be performed by someone with specific legal certification to do so. However, I'm not sure if there is a list of qualifying occupations. |

In Korea, like everything else, it's just for show.
A wedding i not a legally binding ceremony. It's a party for the family, basically.
Unless they go through the proper channels and register their marriage at the local 'gu' office, it's not legally binding. |
