  • BEST REVIEW:

If you want better photos on your trip to Korea, better book this… You can choose whether you want [a] traditional hanbok or…themed/printed. The option we chose has a free hairstyling already but if you want more complicated hairstyles or…accessories like [bags/shoes, then] you just have to pay more. If you booked a photographer, better… come 30 [minutes] earlier than your schedule so you have more time to choose. The photographer guided us… and took so many photos in under 30 [minutes]. She took us to the right spots as well. We had free time to roam around before we [returned the hanbok]. The photos were sent to us within the day as well. 10/10 experience…
