Perfect for meeting locals and people from all over the world Even if you're an introvert, it's very easy to make connections here The sessions last 4 hours, 5 times a week I had so much fun, I'm really grateful for this experience The managers are also very kind I highly recommend it :)

Honestly, spending my 4 hours a day at the studio never even felt like work, they were literally the highlight of my day!! I made so many korean friends and got a chance to look into their culture and daily life. Usually when i solo travel, i only end up hanging out with other backpackers like me and miss out interacting w/locals. But this experience definitely delivered that.

Ngl, the accomodation definitely needs major upgrades but it was totally livable. the only thing i’m sad about is that i couldn't stay and experience this much longer 😭🫶🏼

My experience at the studio was truly amazing. I highly recommend it, both for the work itself and for everything the experience offers on a cultural and personal level The managers are very committed and organized, and they are genuinely open to helping us, and providing support whenever needed The work itself is very enjoyable, but also very meaningful. Besides helping students practice their English, you get the chance to immerse yourself in the local culture. This gives you a unique opportunity to better understand Korean culture, society, and everyday life from a much closer perspective
