Why Does This Option Require Less Effort?
The photographer guides you to suitable locations and helps you find flattering angles, so you spend less time looking for spots and walking back and forth. This makes the photoshoot more efficient and the results more consistent.
- Choose from higher-quality hanbok in lightweight, sheer fabrics or traditional styles.
- Colorful hanbok or styles with gradient colors can add depth and visual interest to your photos.
- The photoshoot fee includes hanbok and hair styling.
- Includes more than 100 original photos and 10–20 retouched photos; the exact number depends on the photography package confirmed when booking.
WALK & TAKE YOUR OWN PHOTOS
Outdoor Hanbok: Take Your Own Photos

Allow Time and Energy for Walking and Taking Photos
Traditional hanbok worn outdoors can be heavier and bulkier, and takes time to put on and take off. Walking between sights, finding photo spots and taking pictures can make this option more physically demanding.
- This option is moderately priced and mainly offers standard traditional hanbok.
- No photographer is included; guests take photos with their own mobile phones.
- Suitable for guests who want to take photos at their own pace.
- This option can be more tiring for groups with older adults or children, so we generally do not recommend it for them.
