Recently we got a question regarding the s0-called “waiting-period” of remarriage under Korean family law. There is no such a thing like “waiting-period” which prohibits a divorced person to remarry within certain period. Actually there had been a clause of waiting period in Korean Civil Code, but the clause was abolished in 2005. So if you’re divorced by the Korean family, then you can remarry at any time you want with no legal hindrances.
