MJ, my host was very kind, welcomed me with a Korean drink and some snacks. The workshop was really interesting, I was able to learn about bojagi and various kind of packaging types. We did together 4 different kind of bojagi packaging. MJ showed me everything slowly, her guidance was clear, so I was able to do it myself. She is very patient and good teacher. Her shop is really neat and warm place. I truly enjoyed today's workshop, thank you for the experience. Recommended for everybody.
Fun making bojagi!

As soon as you step in to the shop we were greeted by MJ in her lovely shop. She makes you feel welcomed right away. Before the lesson we were served some traditional Korean cookies and a cold rice drink, both delicious! MJ was informative, patient and provided clear instructions on making different types Bojagi. It was very hands on and we came away with our own Bojagi wrapped boxes that we each made ourselves! If we had more time in Korea we would have loved to take another class to learn more elaborate wrapping techniques. Highly recommend this experience!

It is a wonderful experience in an environment that radiates tranquillity, just like MJ Kang. She gives clear instructions and also suggests other possibilities, such as adding accessories to the cloths. We were privileged to be there together, just the two of us. Ok Ran

We had a fantastic experience at Studio Bojagi. The workshop is fun and a wonderful way to experience Korean culture. I enjoyed the short presentation at the beginning about the history of bojagi. The wrapping experience was fun and accessible — bojagi is for everyone to enjoy. The wrapping cloths are beautiful, and participants get to choose their cloth colors along with a norigae to complete their gift. The studio space is beautiful and well-organized. The gift shop has many stylish options to purchase and bring home, so you can continue wrapping bojagi for friends and family as well! Minjung is a wonderful host and was welcoming and patient with us since my mother and I required both Korean and English instruction. Overall this is a can't-miss experience in Seoul. Highly recommend!
