A wonderful experience, all materials are supplied. The teacher is amazing, despite a language barrier she was there to help no matter what, even used a translator if we had any questions. She gives you full creative freedom, doesn’t critique your work or make you do her ideas. When you arrive to the exit, you enter this building shown below, the the elevator to the 9th floor and then follow the corridor around!
It was a memorable mother and daughter bonding time. We had fun making our most precious souvenir. This project can be as simple or complicated as you want it to be as it suits all levels. Although the instructor spoke limited English, she was able to communicate in a way that we understand. She was patient and respectful of our designs yet giving sound advise when needed. Highly recommend.
This trip, I went twice. The first time I made one keychain, and I had already a design in mind. She helped me with realizing it. But I enjoyed it so much that I booked the workshop again, also because friends wanted to have the keychain I made. This time I made two keychains. While she was finishing it off, I asked if I was allowed to make a third (I had a design in mind) and I said I would pay for it. She agreed, luckily. She is reaaaallly sweet!! I would totally recommend the workshop and the host is really kind!
I experienced mother-of-pearl inlay for the first time. My mother came to visit from Japan, and I wanted to share a memorable experience in Korea with her, so we decided to try it together. Before we started making anything, the instructor gave us a detailed explanation about the history of mother-of-pearl inlay. The explanation included videos, which made it very easy to understand. Also, the explanation was all in Korean, but they spoke slowly, so I was able to understand most of it. It was difficult, but I was happy to create a one-of-a-kind original piece. My mother was also very pleased.
I really enjoyed the experience and was pleased with the results. Nice to meet other tourists from around the world. The location was easy to find, next to subway exit as in directions. instructor:very pleasant and helpful.
What a lovely experience and what a kind lady. She explained everything slowly in Korean, very understandable. Very fun, I took my mother and we made a necklace and a hairpin. Definitely recommend!
loved it! even though I was an hour late, she let me join the workshop. I enjoyed it so much! it’s a precise job; so you need a lot of patience. but its worth it!!
Very fun class, creative and relaxing for all ages. Multiple options for things to make. The finish of the shells are enhanced. To find the location by subway, take the Purple Line 5 to Dapsimni Station, exit 4. On the same side as the subway exit (to the left) is the entrance (building says 295). View the attached images. Take the elevator to the 9th floor (shop is called "Concept"), which is the last room of the corridor on the left.
The Klook booking experience was very good. We enjoyed this workshop and the experience itself. The items we worked on by far are the best souvenir items we will be taking home from this trip. However, the "How to get there" Klook instructions weren't easy to follow. The company name nor "902-C Woochamg Plaze" was no where to be found especially for foreigners. Suggest writing 9th floor, suite 2C to clarify. And also posting the building picture (attached) for visual assistance as it is also not labelled building 295 per instructions. otherwise the workshop itself is highly recommended. Despite limited English the lady was so helpful and lovely.
The location is on the 9th floor of the building next to the bank, which you'll see immediately after climbing the stairs from Exit 4 of Dasimni Station. The instructor, who had a wonderful smile, explained everything clearly in both English and Korean. The instructor told me, "It's wonderful to create an original, one-of-a-kind piece." While shopping and beauty treatments are great, experiencing Korean culture is also a wonderful thing. It was a fun and valuable experience. I highly recommend it to everyone! Since we were making keychains, the activity took a little over an hour.
