We really loved the quality of the photos. The photographer was really nice and very approachable. I love the editing style and he instructed us with poses. As a photographer myself, I absolutely recommend this company for photoshoot. They also accommodated and considered when I was running late, they were understanding with circumstances and rescheduled my shoot which was really nice of them. The photographer was calm, and really professional with his job. Kudos to this team and I highly recommend this company. equipment: Incredible location: meet up inside the palace safety:very secured and comfortable experience: Loved everything instructor: English friendly and professional

Had such a great experience here! The whole process was very easy and well organized, from choosing the hanbok and getting our hair done to the photoshoot itself. There were plenty of beautiful outfits to choose from, and everything went smoothly. Our photographer was super friendly, patient, and made us feel comfortable during the photoshoot. The photos turned out really nice too! 🥰📸 Would definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for a fun and easy hanbok photoshoot experience in Seoul! ❤️

The photographer was very friendly and approachable, with a comfortable and professional manner. They were polite, talkative, and attentive without being overly enthusiastic. On the morning of our photoshoot, we had to make the booking at the airport before departing from Jeju to Seoul. Since we couldn’t reply immediately during the flight, the photographer contacted us through several channels out of concern that the timing might cause confusion. When we finally arrived at the location, they showed no impatience at all and kindly let us know that they had seen my earlier reply before the flight. The photoshoot process went very smoothly, and the photographer provided clear and timely guidance throughout the session. During the photo editing process, they also recommended many delicious foods and attractions in Seoul that I had never tried before. They ended up being one of the friendliest people I met in Seoul.

great service from everyone all around. we went to the drop in location by accident (I didn’t follow directions given in the email…) and they contacted the private location to let them know we re heading over (possibly late) which we genuinely appreciated since my mom and aunt are elderly and can’t really haul over asap. the private location asked for our measurements ahead of time so they could prepare a lovely assortment of choices for our age range (lol). the main attendant at the private location was so so patient with us and gave us recommendations on colors and styling. she made us feel incredibly comfortable. afterwards the photographer took us to the palace nearby for pics. we thought it was going to be a basic photoshoot with one or two diff locations but he took us all over and was dedicated with poses angles and fixing our hair and hanboks . he even matched the walking pace of my mom which was very thoughtful of him. 100% recommend!! they couldn’t have done anything better !

Since the day of the photoshoot was our wedding anniversary, we wanted to capture some memorable photos, so we made a request. The photographer kindly guided us through various poses and took us to wonderful photo spots at Gyeongbokgung Palace, making the photoshoot very enjoyable. We were so happy to have worn hanbok and taken beautiful photos at Gyeongbokgung Palace on our wedding anniversary; it became a truly wonderful memory. If we have another opportunity, we would definitely love to request their services again.

Amazing value for money! I arrived with my own suit/shirt, quickly got into makeup, took several shots, picked 1 out, and watched the photographer perform touch ups in real time -- all within approximately 1 hour. Additionally, the makeup/hair artist did such a great job that I was able to keep it everything on for the next 12 hours!

Its my 2nd time joining James Bong and Jacob’s activity. They are very warm and welcoming, i got lost and couldnt make it on time for the 12pm photoshoot activity and James asked me to join for the history and hanbok photoshoot session at 1330pm, that was a super nice gesture, so touched. we were a group of 4 and the 1st 30 mins was at their partner store Yes hanbok , i settled for 4hrs rental of their luxury hanbok which included of hairstyling, hanbok and handbag. the photoshoots came out very well with jacob guiding us on the posture. James and Jacob would also talk about the relationship btwn different world empires and link it back to the history of Joseon dynasty where the geongbukgung was centred upon. very fun!! must try!

What to know before visiting Seoul

Quick snapshot of Seoul’s travel rhythms

Seoul draws most Klook bookings for cultural experiences, theme parks and observation decks, with events & shows and massages also popular. Demand rises and falls through the year, peaking in May and dipping around February–March.

Best times to visit and how prices behave

Klook data shows the busiest month is May, while demand is lowest in February and March. Prices peak in July and are typically lowest in January, with rates drifting down through spring before rising into summer. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in January or the quieter February–March window; for peak-season atmosphere and events, aim for May or the summer months when both demand and prices climb.

Tips for travellers from Hong Kong

Most travellers from Hong Kong typically book about four days ahead, with last-minute bookings sometimes possible a day before. If you plan to travel in May or July, consider locking in must-do activities earlier in that two-week planning window to secure choices; for short-notice weekend trips, many experiences remain bookable close to departure. Use Klook to compare timings and availability so you can pick the right balance of price and convenience.
