A bride, who is preparing for her wedding scheduled for 29th last month.

As Corona 19 spread, her husband canceled her wedding because her husband, who works abroad, couldn't even enter.

[Mr. Pre-A: That was about a week ago, and I told them that they had to pay a 100% penalty, up to 80%. ”

Unavoidably paid 80.4 million won, 80% of the cost, A later found out that the contract with the ceremony was unfair.

The agreement says that if you cancel the ceremony 11 days before, you will pay 80% of the penalty. However, the Fair Trade Commission recommends that you pay only 35% of the penalty if you cancel it within 30 days.

But the problem is that there is no legal force.

[Lee Tae-Hwi / Fair Commissioner Review Committee: This is a recommendation and cannot be legally enforced. However, when examining the terms and conditions, it can be used as a criterion for examination. ]

[Mr. / Preliminary Bride: I'm really upset about the wedding being delayed, but I'm paying a penalty.

After a similar dispute, the FTC requested that the penalties be waived if the wedding is postponed or reduced if canceled.

However, wedding companies are struggling to reduce penalties due to severe management difficulties.
