I just booked a Korean wedding for next year. So I am curious, has anyone done one before? Any hints? They are having a pyebaek ceremony (somewhat modified). They're a great couple, lots of fun, and she's American so she can translate what's going to happen for me. I will be getting together with them and discussing the basics of what is going to happen, but is there anything I should be aware of culturally that someone may forget to tell me? Thanks for the help in advance!

They'll be exchanging gifts. Get that.
Probably they'll have traditional attire for the whole wedding or a part of it.
Nothing to worry about.
PS. Korean food is great...

yeah. the ceremony was uber-long, and during the reception they did some game-show like things. this may be isolated. they also dressed in their traditional stuff and sat across a table from their parents and were given all sorts of gifts, food, and $$$.
