5.00I’m so glad I did this! The space is beautiful and really sets the vibe. The instructor provides a detailed background on the history of bojagi’s with in a presentation-like format. They then go through each step carefully and slowly, making sure that you feel good about the process. The snacks, the packaging, etc… all feel so intentional and well thought out. I would recommend this activity to anybody visiting Seoul!

5.00MJ, 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.
