It's like Disneyland but with much better value for money. I don't feel like I'm getting ripped off with the merch or food either.

I think it’s all worth, we got to know our personal color that would help us pick the best for us. Lia, was very detailed and friendly during our session and explained everything to us so it’s amazing. We were very happy with the experience! Highly recommended when you visit South Korea.

I was glad that there were so many kinds of uniforms! The designs were really cute, and there were many uniforms with designs that don't exist in Japan, so I really liked them ^_^ The jackets were an additional charge, but I was still happy that I could rent them at such a low price!
