When booking tickets, you can only choose the location level. You can exchange the tickets one hour before the show starts and just show him the purchase certificate from klook. I bought VIP this time and was probably the first to book my ticket, so I was in the middle. The whole performance is very interesting. Even though you don't understand the language, you can understand what the actors want to express. The performance hall is full of laughter from adults and children. It is recommended to come and see it!

It’s a show that you can watch even if you don’t understand Korean. It’s quite interesting and the kids laugh a lot... It’s also very convenient to exchange tickets physically. You can exchange them at the counter.
