Amazing experience! I was looking for a unique experience to share with my partner, and it's safe to say we found it! The artist leading the session is incredibly kind and an excellent teacher. After a brief explanation of the history of Korean seals, you'll have the pleasure of designing your own and carving it into stone. I highly recommend it!

My wife and I spent a wonderful afternoon carving personal seals at the Feel Good Calligraphy studio in Seoul. Jeongju is a beautiful person and an excellent teacher. The experience was so moving, my wife became emotional after completing her seal. Highly recommend!

Our experience with Jeongju was exceptional. She is a great teacher and talented artist. We learned about the history of personal seals and got detailed step by step instructions on how to make our own. She was so prepared, and has thought of every detail. The groups are small (ours was five people) so you have plenty of face-to-face instruction, though she does not pressure or judge beginners. Would highly recommend visiting a hanok teahouse nearby and walking around Insa-dong after your lesson. This is a great way to learn more about Korea’s culture of craft while also resting your legs during a busy vacation. Thanks so much Jeongju!!! :)
