What happens
Two Weddings and a Funeral (Korean: 두 번의 결혼식과 한 번의 장례식; RR: Du beonui gyeolhonsikgwa han beonui jangnyesik) is a 2012 South Korean gay romantic comedy film that explores the taboos and intolerance in Korean society in the story of a gay man and lesbian who enter into a sham marriage. It is the feature film debut of out filmmaker Kim Jho Kwang-soo, and his fourth LGBT-themed film. Although the film didn't emerge as a mainstream hit, its 10-day total of 32,000 admissions was impressive for a specialty release, making it the most commercially successful queer Korean film yet.
