Join me for an immersive experience in traditional Korean bookbinding, where you'll craft your own personalized notebook using time-honored techniques.
Make your own traditional Korean notebook using time-honored binding techniques in Insadong.
Guided by a Korean craft artist, you will assemble and bind your notebook step by step in a small group setting, ensuring personal attention throughout the process.
This notebook is completely handmade and easy to carry home — perfect for travelers who enjoy meaningful, hands-on cultural experiences.
✔ Small & personal attention
✔ Handmade by a Korean craft artist
Workshops are offered with limited availability and take place only in Insadong, the cultural heart of Seoul.
Featured on MBC’s “Welcome, First Time in Korea?” and the Korea Tourism Organization’s promotional campaign, an experienced cultural host awaits you for an unforgettable Korean experience.
(Please be advised that only those with reservations can attend)
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Please come to my studio. You can easily find it on Google Maps by searching “Feel so good calli.” or "필소굿캘리" on Naver Maps. (There is no lift in this building.)
What to expect
We’ll begin by carefully folding selected 15 papers and arranging them between elegant covers. You’ll choose your favorite thread color and learn the traditional Korean binding method step by step, from making precise holes to stitching the book together by hand.
To make your notebook even more personal, you’ll also learn how to write your name in Korean. After practicing with a brush, you’ll create a beautiful handwritten title piece to decorate your cover.
Your finished notebook can become a special travel journal for your Seoul memories — a place to keep tickets, sketches, thoughts, and stories from your journey. More than just a souvenir, it is a meaningful piece of Korean craft tradition made with your own hands.
