From the Metro: Lee Jin-gyu fell for his ‘dakimakura’ – a kind of large, huggable pillow from Japan, which has a picture of his favourite anime character, Fate Testarossa, on it. And married it. http://bit.ly/98lDK6 #
“He is completely obsessed with this pillow and takes it everywhere,” said one friend. “They go out to the park or the funfair where it will go on all the rides with him. Then when he goes out to eat he takes it with him and it gets its own seat and its own meal.”
So, you can marry your pillow but not someone of the same sex in South Korea?
This just brings out the cynic in me.
