What’s on Offer?

Imagine an event packed with everything Hanbok. We’re talking about a lineup of artists and designers ready to show off their most stunning pieces. If you’re passionate about keeping traditional Hanbok alive and kicking, you won’t want to miss this.

With six different programs on deck, there’s no shortage of ways to immerse yourself. Picture interactive photo zones, live shows, and hands-on events—all waiting for you. And here’s a sweet deal: show up in your Hanbok, and you get in free. Yes, you read that right. Whether it’s just a piece or the full outfit, wearing Hanbok gets you a complimentary pass!

However, for those who are not wearing an Hanbok, the entrance fee is 5,000 KRW (Admission is only complimentary for attendees wearing hanbok, be it the traditional style or the everyday variation. Feel free to wear either the top or bottom piece; both options are welcome and eligible for free entry.)

Pro Tips for a Perfect Visit

First, arrive early. With an array of attractions to explore, it’s advisable to allocate ample time for a thorough exploration. Given that it’s the weekend and the event’s final day, there might be a considerable crowd. To make the most of your visit, consider arriving early during opening hours to avoid the rush and have a leisurely look around.

Second, prioritize comfort when it comes to your attire – opt for comfortable clothing and shoes that will facilitate your exploration. The hall is really, really large and just walking around will tire you out. Also, if you are planning on trying different hanboks on site, it’s best you wear clothes that are comfortable to take on and off.

Third, bring some snacks with you. Within the fairground, there’s a café that offers beverages and traditional desserts. But do note that, as experienced by those familiar with the COEX event venue, the exhibition hall is quite distant from dining facilities. To refuel during your visit, consider bringing along a chocolate bar and a drink as a quick and convenient energy boost.

And lastly, don’t throw away your receipt. They are hosting a special gift event based on your purchase amount – remember to hold onto your receipt to avail of this offer.

Hope my tips help you out^^ Don’t miss this final opportunity to be a part of the 2023 Hanbok Store event, and have a happy time exploring and discovering the beauty of hanbok!
