Traditional Korean Paebaek Ceremony

"For the paebaek ceremony, we wore traditional Korean outfits and invited our parents, aunts, uncles and grandparents to offer words of wisdom, toast with soju and toss chestnuts and dates into a scarf that we held," Deborah says. "Traditionally, the number of chestnuts that stay in the scarf represent the number of sons that we will have, whereas the number of dates represent the number of daughters."
