    An amazing insight to broadcasting in South Korea. Fantastic experience of a lifetime. If you want to know the ins and outs of how dramas are produced this is the tour to do.

  • A sneak peek at how k dramas are made

    A behind the scenes view of how k dramas are made - from script read through to rehearsal. Fascinating and made fun by the team that lead us through the building.

  • Wonder insights into the K-drama and K-pop worlds

    Great insight into the well-oiled machine that churns out hopeful K-pop stars and keeps the K-dramas coming. Yoo and Joon were phenomenal tour guides and happy to share all of their extensive knowledge with the group. Easy meet up directions via WhatsApp and consistent contact to ensure we all showed up timely. Lunch saw us on our own to choose from a large selection of restaurants. Would happily try this tour again if they incorporate actual filming and/or another K-drama rehearsal into the schedule! I will say with so much insight on the K-drama rehearsal that we saw, I can’t wait to actually watch the series from the beginning.

  • The best experience in Seoul if you love K-drama/pop

    Absolutely incredible! The guides were more than accommodating, they went out of their way to make the tour fun, interesting and well organised. They showed us so much! The studio, the offices, all about drama, pop and even radio. Got to see actors rehearsing on set which was an incredible experience and got to understand a table read and keep the script of an episode! I would highly recommend this tour if you love K drama and/or K pop. And I would give an extra star for the guides alone!

  • A must for Kdrama fans!

    Superfun to see a live rehersal of a Makjang Kdrama. Very professional and funny tour guides. We got an hour lunch time and there was a great selection of food at the digital media city. What can be improved? The stuios were the most fun to see rather than buildings so second place was less interesting but we enjoyed some history and fun facts from the guide. A must if you are a fan of kdramas and filmmaking.👍

    Joon was exceptionally flexible and communicated at all times of the day and night to ensure the trip went smoothly. He also made additional accommodations for my mother that went above and beyond. Unfortunately the live rehearsals were cancelled but the difference in tour prices was promptly refunded and the guides went all out to provide a deep dive on the studio and behind the scenes.

  • Wonderful tour!

    What a great experience, we got to take a look behind the scenes of a K-drama studio. It was very interesting to learn how the sets are made and to walk around and touch the props. There was a little bit of k-pop content as well - we were shown the venues where the bands performed in the past. Great guide!

  • The BEST Tour In S. Korea!!!

    Omgosh! I was not expecting such a fabulous, incredible experience. I was completely blown away! Our tour guides Joon and Prof. Cho were second to none. They should have their own tv show! They were so much fun, so energetic and outgoing, so entertaining and informative… and absolutely hilarious! They are STARS themselves. I just loved them so much and they made our day absolutely perfect! It’s obvious that they both love and are extremely proud of MBC and their industry! From the second the tour began until the very end I was thrilled and completely enamored. Our tour was fortunate enough to experience so many fabulous things. We were lucky enough to be on set for a rehearsal for a K-Drama and we were even able to meet some of the stars. To top everything off we were each gifted a script from the show which was so very much appreciated. I will treasure it! .Joon and Prof Cho couldn’t have been more lovely. We experienced so many different aspects of the MBC studios and they certainly made a fan of me! The added explanations of what we were seeing and experiencing was presented in the professional way on an iPad and portable speaker. We were able to take photos almost everywhere. This tour is so jam packed with thrilling things to see and do at every moment. It’s bursting with content and excitement. I have been on many tours here in S Korea and not one holds a candle to this one.MBC-I think you need to give Joon and Prof Cho their own tv show… the world needs to experience their AMAZING personalities! Thank you all for the most wonderful day in Seoul. I couldn’t have asked for more! Pure perfection!! THE BEST TOUR IVE EVER TAKEN!
