Rumor has it that the cost of wedding halls will rise to hundreds of millions of won if fresh flower decorations are added. Many stars and wealthy names, including Jang Dong-gun and Ko So-young, Yoo Jae-suk and Na Kyung-eun, Kwon Sang-woo and Son Tae-young, Jeon Ji-hyun, Jeon Do-yeon and Hwang Jung-eum, also married at the hotel.
