Hanbok rental studio with a wide variety for all ages.
From hankok to handbag accessories to hair tie ribbons etc.
Reception and staff there can communicate in mandarin and English too.
Location is also within walking distance to Bukchon Hanbok village.
Will be good to be there early, where there is lesser human traffic for lots of photo taking.

The experience wasn't good. First of all the selections are not many and the quality isn't the best. Hair styling is very simple and rushed thru. Hair accesories u hv to pick and do your own. No lockers are available too.
I very rarely write negative reviews because I know small businesses are trying. But our experience was so bad and pretty outrageous that I am here to let people know so they don't feel like they got scammed.
Minimum 4hrs charged.
Not much selection for larger sizes.
We didn't like the options or the fit so chose not to rent from them. They have a policy that if you even try on you get charged full price regardless of renting or not.
That policy they pointed at to inform us was in Korean.
I would definitely not recommend this place.
Unfriendly service, high cost compared to locations that are right by the palace, further away from the palace than other great and cheaper locations.

I LOVED this hanbok rental!
The place is small but very well utilized. The staff is friendly and attentive. From the moment you enter, they assist you with everything, even advising on the size you should look for and making recommendations to help you find the perfect hanbok for you.
They have lovely options, affordable prices, and a variety of sizes that I couldn't experience in other rentals (other places sometimes offer larger sizes, but the hanboks aren't as beautiful or eye-catching unless you pay extra, which I didn't experience here).
The accessory station has several choices, and it's easy to pick the right one for you. They also have a convenient area for fixing and doing makeup with multiple stations, so you won't have to compete with anyone to get ready.
Overall, I adored this experience and this store. I would recommend it a thousand times, and if I were to come back, I would come here directly!

we got a reservation online via kkday.
Each person can try on two sets of Hanbok. The store provides basic hair styling(braid), but you need to put on hair accessories by yourself.
p.s. Photography is not allowed inside the store.

Very good hanbok rental place. It is close to 2 big palaces and Bukchon village so you can easily spend the day in your hanbok in those different places and return it on time !
I am a plus size EU50 / US20 / UK22 and they have enough option that you don't feel that you have to "settle". I've been here in november 2022 and may 2023. In their shop i was size 140. All the rental process is very clear. You leave all your belongings at the front shop and then you can choose one hanbok to try. You can have to tries, more will be an add on payment. You can rent it for 24h and enjoy the night in seoul with it for 32,000₩ or for 4h at 24,000₩.
You can leave your belongings dor the day and rent a small bag. They also offer hairstyle service.
