We had an amazing time and enjoyed every minute of our Taekwondo lesson. It was great fun to learn about Taekwondo and our teachers were very kind and taught the lesson with great enthusiasm and passion. The school is family owned and has a long Taekwondo tradition. Try it out, you will have a lot of fun!

The city run was super fun and informative. Mr. Harry was very kind and talkative. He helped take photos of me during the run and shared lots of great information throughout the session. Highly recommended for any active runners visiting Seoul!

We really enjoyed our tour. Our guide Harry catered the run to our abilities and knew a lot about the area he told us on the run. Harry even took some photos of us while we were running too. We went to a really cute pub with Korean craft beer and had a great time.

Scan the QR in klook voucher at the entrance machine (next to the aquarium) and show the slip to the receptionist. Put your shoes in the box + enter the bathing section. Bring your own toiletries or you may purchase on site (4000won). Staff will brief you what to do inside the bathing section and the scrub expert will look for you once they see you washed and cleaned up. Just observe and follow the crowd.

The Dongmyo location is clean, but the full body scrub package doesn't include shampoo or a bath towel, which is inconvenient as you have to pay extra. It would be best to clarify this or include it all! You have to reserve sleeping spaces in advance... Overall, it's okay.

The K-Beauty facial was absolutely amazing. The practitioner has excellent technique. The treatment is comprehensive. It's a pure moment of relaxation and bliss. The salon is clean and inviting. We felt very welcome from the moment we arrived until our departure. I loved all the little touches and the attention to detail surrounding this service. The staff is professional and attentive to all our needs. I highly recommend this treatment and this institute to everyone.
