Double trouble: Chinese identical twin brides and grooms agree to a little cosmetic surgery to solve problem of who married whom

Two identical twin Chinese brothers and their identical twin wives have agreed to have minor cosmetic surgery to help solve the problem of exactly who is married to whom, mainland media reports.

The couples’ identity problems first started when the brothers, Zhao Xin and Zhao Xun, who come from a village near the city of Yuncheng, in northwestern China’s Shanxi province, began dating identical twin sisters, Yun Fei and Yun Yang, from a village 10km away, news portal Chinanews.com reported.

The two couples are so exactly alike – even down to the sound of their voices – that they and their families and friends find it impossible to tell each other apart.

The couples were married during this year’s Chinese Lunar New Year holiday, with Zhao Xin wedding Yun Fei, and his brother tying the knot with the other sister.
