This was by far my most favourite experience I have done in Seoul. It was a big day, lots of walking and standing (so make sure you wear good shoes) but honestly WELL worth every penny. Professor Choi from MBC did SUCH a fantastic job, and Jun, Grace and San were fantastic translators. We got to see inside the sets for 2 of MBCs kdramas (including one that’s currently on air), watch a live rehearsal (and watch the actors on set), plus I learned so much about kdrama productions, MBC and the rise of kdramas on a global scale. I would highly recommend this to anyone who’s interested in kdramas, film and television, or just someone who’s looking to experience something a little different in Seoul. 1000% worth it
