One of the best experiences I’ve had in Korea!!

5.00This was literally one of my most favorite experiences here in Korea! The instructor was fun and kind. She has so much experience and expertise that I was beyond nervous. I have no experience with playing instruments but the way she had it broken down it was very easy to understand and follow along. I loved wearing the traditional hanbok and feeling so immersed with Korean tradition and culture. The studio was easy to find and it’s in the cutest district in Seoul. You won’t regret booking this experience!
