Best Way to Start a Day Trip to Seoul - I had to switch between Busan and Seoul to get the best flight option home and had time to explore Seoul. I'm so happy I started my tour day of Seoul with Jeongju Kim's class. My train was late and I was a few minutes late getting to her studio. She was very gracious and understanding that I was running late and even held the class starting for a bit to allow me to get there. The session was myself and 2 other students and it was a blast. The instructions were super straightforward and she worked with you so you had all the tools and knowledge to do it properly. The art district she's in offers plenty of places to have someone make your seal for you, but being able to do it yourself and truly make your mark made it all worth it!

A fun memory! - I loved this experience! Jeongju Was a wonderful teacher. She was funny, kind, patient, and helpful. She has every step laid out and easy to understand. And the group is small enough that everyone was able to easily get one on one guidance. I really enjoyed this and very happy with my beautiful handmade seal souvenir!

A Must-Do in Seoul! - Making a traditional Dojang (stone stamp) was a highlight of my trip! It was so rewarding to learn the history behind these personal seals. My instructor, Jeongju, was incredibly kind and patient throughout the entire carving process. ​It was a great atmosphere—I met several other travelers all trying it for the first time. The experience is meditative and beginner-friendly. I’m already planning to come back to try the white background (Yang-gak) style next time! ​Highly recommend for a unique, personal souvenir. 🇰🇷✨

Great experience and host, combo of art and history - Wonderful experience that I would recommend to anyone interested in hand crafted arts and their importance in Korean history and society. She is a great teacher. Friendly, knowledgeable, skilled, passionate about art and teaching, and all in English (at least my class was).

Handmade souvenir to remember our Korea trip - My husband and I started pottery & wanted a stamp (maker’s mark) for our future pieces. This was the perfect experience that allowed us to create something functional that also honoured my heritage. Would recommend this experience to anyone! :)
