This was such a special experience! The "teachers" were so patient and tried their best with meeting our very very limited Korean skills. Even though we only speak English, we got through the process and made the best souvenirs and memory! They gave us a clear explanation of add on prices too! My husband and I ended up spending about 138,000 KRW (~ $105 USD) for 2 fully customized (Including diamond and birth stone AND engraving) Highly suggest!
