Things to do in Goguryeo Blacksmith Village

We had a great experience at Lumiere Perfume Making. It’s a lovely place with excellent staff. Our instructor, Mr. Rei, was very patient, attentive, and truly made the session enjoyable. Overall, the experience was fantastic—we were so happy with how our perfumes turned out that we even upgraded our package. Highly recommended!

An amusement park that's bigger than expected. You first enter a building with three floors. On the bottom floor, there's an ice rink for ice skating. On the first and second levels, there are roller coasters like a ship, Sinbad Adventure, and 3D roller coasters. A parade with K-pop music also takes place in the building. However, we recommend going up the rocks as early as possible to get to Magic Island outside. There, you'll find roller coasters for adults, such as the Haunted House (admission for this attraction costs extra and can be purchased at the castle). The indoor area is more for children. The food stalls are super delicious. We recommend the churros and the yogurt snack. We visited on a Monday, and the wait times were really short in the early morning/afternoon. In the late afternoon, however, you might have to wait for half an hour.

This is such great value for money! You have two hours to row if you want with such a large area to explore! It’s perfect place to see the sunset and they have someone in a boat taking great pictures for free! All the staff was super friendly and made everything really clear! And speak excellent English! Koa was great!

I came by myself to escape the heat and create a perfume I know I will actually enjoy and it was so fun! I had the whole place to myself but it has a great relaxing atmosphere and the video was very easy to follow along. It offers two different ways to select your perfume and you can really take your time with the samples to make sure you make the best choice. Mixing up the samples really satisfied the part of me that loves chemistry too 😂 the lady working was so kind and helpful, it's great value money for the experience and you can take something personal home to actually use. I really recommend it.

i love this experience! they provided makeup and tools to use for the workshop. and you can ask for help and sometimes they assist people individually. good explanation. and the experience way cheaper than those one on one makeup tutorial sessions somewhere else . plus they give out free products after (i got a full size makeup remover, some pads, lip oil, and eye shadow palette that matches my eyes based on the workshop). there’s a free photobooth with 2 prints after. they also gave a 20% discount too for shopping afterwards. worth it!

I had a really fun time making my own cleanser. The staff was very helpful and patient, and the class was easy to follow. There was also a simple skin analysis provided at the start of the class which was helpful in choosing which cleanser I could make.

I think it's also a great way to relieve daily stress, but when it became a finished piece, I was incredibly moved. You choose four colors from about ten options and apply them using various tools like brushes, tubes, sponges, and spray guns. After fully suiting up in protective gear (even for someone as plump as me, there was plenty of room!), glasses, and sandal covers, I was able to enjoy myself thoroughly, just like a child again. The location is also very easy to find; you just go straight from the station exit, so even those of us who are directionally challenged had no trouble getting there.

First time watching a baseball match real live and it was very interesting experience! We first met up with the guide and the rest of the group at the sports complex station at 4pm, and walked around 10min to kychon chicken nearby for early dinner. We shared 4 baskets of chicken with 4 other foreigners from USA/Scotland and it was fun interacting with them. A cup of beer was served during dinner, they will offer drinks if you don’t take alcohol. Afterwhich we walked over to the Jamsil station which is 10min away to watch the match, it was a great experience listening to all the Korean cheer for their favourite team, singing along with actions. Had a great view of the cheerleader dancing too. Great job to Twins for winning the game.

The money spent was absolutely worth it! I recommend finding the hairstyle you want online beforehand, then confidently entrusting it to the stylist. You can truly trust the stylist to do a great job. For example, I had cut my own bangs, and the stylist noticed the two sides were uneven, so she trimmed them for me for only 200 NTD. She even tied my hair with a bow and used hairspray to perfectly set every strand. As for the makeup, I have a lot of acne, but the makeup artist's skills were incredible; she concealed it so well you couldn't tell how much acne I had. Plus, at the beginning, you can choose between a Korean female look or an idol look. After the first layer of foundation, I already felt my face looked much more radiant. They even offered a drink during the process, which tasted like lemon iced tea.
