Cham Hanbok Rental

Highly competitive hanbok rental area around the palace. I get that it can be very stressful, but from our experience it was no rushed. Instead of catering to our individual needs and wants you felt pressured to book immediately.

rude staff spoke in Korean criticising me not realising I understood everything she said - saying I was too ‘complicated’ and ‘difficult’ did not want to try to fit more than once even though their policy allowed for 2 fittings. Did not want me to change my mind. Tone of voice was rude saying I’ve come to the wrong shop. One star for the refund. If you want a decent level of patience and service go elsewhere

This is the second time I used them and the disappointment lingered. They dont seem concerned with my wants or enjoyment of a cultural experience. The woman wanted to just dress me and be done. When it came to my hair, she wanted to do a bun but I insisted on something else which she did hurriedly and halfway. I get that there are lots of people but I have been to other hanbok rental places where they didnt treat me like a conveyor belt item.

They have a good selection l, and it didn’t feel as packed and busy as other shop I saw around! We enjoyed the experience, I suggest you spoil yourself with the whole package: hairstyle, hat, shoes etc! We found it quite cheap and it’s nice to have the whole set!

All the workers were incredibly accommodating and ready to give suggestions when we didn’t know what to pick! All three types of hanbok were of great quality and the prices are WELL below what they should be 👌. Perfect location if you want to go to Gyeongbokgung Palace (which you totally should - it’s free with the hanbok 😮💪). All in all a great experience 😌😌

I went there with 2 of my friends we dressed up as 2 warriors and 1 general and the feedback we got we amazing! We been ask to take a photo with by soo many people and some was sure we worked there.
Location is amazing and the service was soo kind and patient.
Not everyone speak English there but you will easily find someone who can.

Highly recommend to take the special hanbok, it’s worth the price

Wonderful experience and service by Cham Hanbok. Definitely, will support them again and recommend to friends who would want to try wearing hanboks in Seoul. Staff are friendly and willingly will help you out wear the hanboks. Reasonable price too and not crowded as compared to other hanbok shops. We came after lunch to catch the 2pm guard-changing ceremony in Gyeongbukgong Palace. The headband and purses/bag are free of charge. You need to pay for hairstyling and hats for men. Clean and stylish hanboks. This shop is just across the entrance of the palace.
