it was a fun day out but wished the time at Jeonju was longer as there were so many more to explore but only had such little time.

The entire trip was smooth and worthwhile, with well-planned itineraries and comfortable arrangements. However, the tour guide’s language skills could be improved. He often mixed simple English and Chinese in his explanations, which made it difficult to follow at times. Additionally, some important information was missed during translations, which affected the overall experience. With better communication, this trip could have been exceptional.

Fun day at the hanok village. The suspension bridge was just kind of so-so, but the view was really nice. I snapped some great pictures and had a good carefree time. Our tour guide Ruby did an excellent job!

This is a package itinerary, the KTX ticket to Jeonju + the Hanbok experience in Jeonju. It is very worth buying. It can reduce unnecessary troubles. Moreover, the service staff of the Hanbok experience store have a great attitude and always ask us to try a few more items. No impatience at all, push push.
