One of a kind 🤩

I planned my wedding 6 months out. I knew from the start one of my biggest challenges were going to be finding a MC/DJ to host my wedding as I didn’t want my friends to be part of wedding so that they can enjoy our special moment rather than feeling like they had to work a wedding. I came across MC Jin and his team while doing google searched as part of my major requirements was someone that was bilingual in both Korean and English. A huge part of the guest list were my parent’s friends and I wanted a wedding where they felt they were involved and not solely based on the younger party. From the first meeting to planning MC Jin and his team were very attentive and had quick follow up response period. Being the expert in weddings, MC Jin also provided pointers and guidance while I was putting the schedule. I cannot be more grateful for such a wonderful & energetic team to work with. All of the guests are sending messages on how much fun they had! We couldn’t have pulled this celebration off with this team. It is tough to find a bilingual team so if this is something you are looking for please consult and book! Make sure to inquire with MC Jin about packages including photobooth if you are interested. Photobooth was such a big hit for our guests and we are reliving all of the moments we missed through the pictures. Thank you SO VERY MUCH for being a part of our day!!!!

PS I understand that people have different experiences during different times but for me I just want to add that he stayed til the very end and left at the same time or later than is upon breaking down his equipment with his team. I also want to add that I found his response time reasonable. I even texted him a few times with last minute questions and he responded very quickly and in a reasonable time. Again, this is my personal review of my experience with the team.

MC뚱 DDOONG and DJ Andy were absolutely incredible. From the first meeting to the last song, we couldn't have asked for better. Weddings are very stressful and complicated events to plan. Jin helped us through every step of the way, made suggestions when we had questions, and made our wedding a truly memorable event. Guests were enjoying it so much that many kicked off their high heels and shoes and danced until the venue started shutting down.

Many of our guests said this was the best DJ and MC combo they've ever heard. Even more than a year after the wedding, the guests still bring it up! Highly, highly recommended!

JIN "Z" CHA AKA MC뚱 DDOONG was resourceful and made sure that everyone at our wedding got up and danced. He was a smooth MC who was able to cater to both English-speaking and Korean-speaking guests at our reception. He was also knowledgeable about the Korean Pae-Baek so he was able to explain the custom to our non-Korean guests. Few of my guests commented how fun MC Ddoong was and recommended him to others for their wedding. He was even accommodating after our wedding by following up with us. It's almost a year since the wedding and our guests still comment how fun our wedding was. They also liked the song choices that DJ Andy played.

Cringe, Unprofessional, Doesn't Listen, Offensive

MCDdoong was unprofessional, unresponsive and didn't heed to any of our emails or meetings. After we paid our deposit, he pretty much waited until the last moment to schedule a meeting with us and only after much insistence. It was clear he didn't read any of our 3 previous emails and instructions and my wife and I basically told each other, he's just an MC, we gave him simple instructions, what could go wrong?

On the day of the wedding my brother told me this guy sweaty and disgusting, 30 minutes before the start time so we didn't even have a chance to coordinate. Because of this he tried to improvise throughout the wedding, including cracking jokes during the ceremony (we specifically wrote in instructions for him not to do this but he didn't read our emails or Kakao messages- I know this because our last few Kakao messages were still unread). We simply needed someone to help translate certain portions of the wedding / ceremony and told him specifically when to chime in, but he suffers from some weird party narcissism that made him think he needed to be the center of attention. That wasn't cool in high school, so you could imagine how cringe it was at a wedding. Even random guests started telling him off.

He managed to offend multiple people at the wedding, my pastors, my wife's friends and family, my family and even other vendors who were well-prepared and waiting on him. Luckily, because he was so irritating and annoying he ended up being a uniting force because everyone collectively found him to be a joke. Whenever he got feedback,

His DJ was really good and so was his photo booth guy. But he got in the way of the wedding. Many props to DJ Kimmy for staying professional, despite his juvenile behavior.

It seems like he has been doing this for a while and just does his own thing, so he shows up to weddings and does the same obnoxious jackass routine.

He disappeared before the wedding ends so the groom led the party

I am the bride who hired this vendor. If I could give 0 stars, I would. Before my wedding, I sent a message for wedding plans but he did not answer for 2 months without ANY explanation. My husband and I were drowning in details and plans. He answered less than a month before my wedding day but still did not apologize for what he did. Before the ceremony, the MC changed the settings that the venue set up in the way that I want WITHOUT asking me or my husband. I asked him to put them back and he did with attitude. After the ceremony, my husband and I were taking pictures with family at the ceremony place – it was outside – and I saw the MC smoking at the place. It was very shocking. Before the reception, he got into arguments with my bridesmaids about the plans – I do not understand why he was being so stubborn about somebody else’s wedding, not his. Eventually, I, the bride, got into arguments with him for 30 mins and my guests waited for 30 mins for the reception. During the reception, he dragged out any female guests who did not wear wedding rings even if they are married or not for bouquet ceremony. He also made rude comments to the guests. The worst thing was that he left before the reception ended without letting me or my husband know. Many of my guests saw him changing his shoes, packing his bag and leaving. I did not know that the MC was gone and asked the DJ to find him for closure of the reception. The DJ did not even look at me – looking at her cell phone – and said “do the closing by yourself if you are in a hurry”. My husband did the closing sent him a message him what happened after the wedding was over, but we are still waiting for his answer. It has been more than 2 weeks since my wedding. For me, they did not seem like they take their career seriously and did not put their time and efforts. I do not want any refund or apology from the vendor. I just want no more newlyweds get their wedding ruined by this vendor.

I don't recommend MC 뚱 at all. long story short. he is very unprofessional, He was arguing with the guests and smoking during the reception. The best part is he left early, didn't close the party...Very rude !!!
