It's very close to Gyeongbokgung Palace. The hair style is very nice. There are many styles of clothes. The service attitude is super good. You can also make an appointment for makeup. I will come back next time. Highly recommended.

Sangyong is a very polite and helpful driver. Driving skill is superb and patient. He even helped us booked a table in a halal restaurant he recommended after our Nami Island trip. Do note that 10hrs is not enough to cover Nami Island and another place. So we head home after Nami Island. Price is a little pricey

It's very nice to watch, there's a plot going on, and the utensils are all kitchen pots and pans. It's recommended to buy a place on the first floor, as there will be a lot of opportunities for interaction. It’s super convenient to be in a building in the busy area of Myeongdong! !

One of my favorite shows in Seoul. It takes about 15 minutes to walk in Myeongdong, or you can also take the subway for one stop. I have seen it several times, and the experience is different every time.

Very powerful! In addition to painting, there is also dancing! There are performances presented in various paintings, and the music is well-chosen, so there will be no dull moments at all!

I was able to shop without having to worry about exchange rates or card fees! The Oriyang store staff were quick to respond when I showed them the voucher and everything went smoothly. I used the store in Myeongdong.
