A Finn fashion model is openly looking for a spouse in Korea.

Sofia Lumme
By Park Si-soo
Staff Reporter

A Finn fashion model is openly looking for a spouse in Korea.

Sofia Lumme, 21, recently registered with the nation's largest matchmaking firm, Sunoo (www.couple.net), to find her soul mate in Korea. She is now on a temporary visit to Korea for a project.

She has worked as a fashion model since the age of 12 and any man registered on its Web site and who has no difficulty communicating in English can be a candidate, Sunoo said.

"Her Prince Charming doesn't have to be a rich man but a well-rounded and gentle guy. She values character most," a spokesman said.

She is the first non-Korean to look for her spouse via the matchmaking company.
