PIXX Yeonnam Branch 1 & Photolab Plus Hongdae Branch 2

PIXX Yeonnam Branch 1 offers a minimalist, wood-lined setting with a magazine-style look, while Photolab+ Hongdae Branch 2 has a bear-themed photo room. The two photo-booth themes give your portraits very different looks.

Highlights

At PIXX, you can pose standing or sitting in a wooden-box setting with soft light and a clean background. At Photolab+, the bear theme extends from the backdrop to the props, giving the photos more of a themed setting than a standard four-cut photo strip.

K2 TIPS

Ms Karyl's firsthand tips

Firsthand Experience

On this visit, I tried two very different selfie styles in Hongdae and Yeonnam-dong. PIXX's minimalist wooden-box setting suits full-body shots and magazine-style compositions. Photolab+ surrounds you with bears for a cuter, more comforting feel.

Recommended by Ms Karyl

At PIXX, plan your pose and composition for each frame first, then take an extra shot of the setting without people. This makes it easier to create a clean collage with white space. At Photolab+, kneeling helps center you in the frame; sitting may place you too low. Weekdays are usually easier for a visit.

Is it worth the special trip?

It suits people who enjoy photography and want themed souvenir photos from Hongdae and Yeonnam-dong. The two styles are distinct, so choose the atmosphere you prefer.
