Reviews
Great experience! We had a wonderful time at the workshop. It was a pleasure creating an accessory with mother-of-pearl. The instructor is very friendly, makes sure we understand everything, offers advice, and answers our questions with enthusiasm! The tea ceremony helps us pass the time while things dry. This will be a wonderful memory for us.
It was a very nice and traditional local experience! The hosts were very welcoming and while designing our craft piece, they played traditiol music which added a very relaxing ambience. The Korean tea ceremony was also a wonderful touch to end the session. Very fun and creative, would highly recommend!
Beautiful way to understand the art of mother-of-pearling. Very fun to make your own designs and view the art available! Thea tea ceremony was well-explained and very nice experience. Would really recommend for everyone, especially if you want a crafty souvenir from Korea
the activity was amazing and so much fun you can create beautiful objects while learning about the korean culture.
staff was incredibly nice and we had the best time!!💗
The workshop itself was quite fun (tho the stuff speaks very poor English), but our items got ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED by the time we got to the hotel. The workshop doesn't use fast-curing resin, and somehow the film used to wrap the item stuck to the adhesive used instead. We did our best to be careful with the box, it didn't fall or tip over, and yet. It turned an amazing night to a huge disappointment and a total waste of money.
