We just met, so I don’t know him that well, but he was honest from the beginning. He says he’s still married because of their son, and because his wife doesn’t want to get divorced right now. Apparently, South Korea has a fault-based divorce system. TIL.


One would think a judge would allow her to serve notice in the local newspapers in a situation like that if the dude is even alive.
Yeah this screams alternate service. And pretty sure at some point alternate service is also allowed over email, mail, or other means.
Every country is different, of course, but I was wondering how is that different from divorcing from a missing person that from all you know could be dead.
Possibly if she knew a town or even county. I also am surprised that’s even a thing anymore, like who reads physical newspapers? Only time I remember buy them was to wrap dishes and glasses when moving.
This is how I divorced.
