5.00The highlight of my trip to Korea! I had the most wonderful time participating in the Hanbok & Gayageum Experience! Dressing up in stunning traditional Hanbok was amazing, but getting to actually learn and play the Gayageum was a truly unique and magical experience. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout. If you want to experience real K-culture beyond the usual sightseeing, definitely book this. Five stars!
