Take a leisurely walk through the Gwanghwamun area, the heart of the city for over 600 years.

June, a guide with a major in history, will lead you to both traditional and modern local spots - including Gwanghwamun Square, the charming streets and alleyways of Samcheong-dong, the traditional Bukchon Hanok Village, and even the College of North Korean Studies.

At each location, June will reveal the hidden histories that have shaped modern Korean society and its people.

What are the main issues for Koreans and why? What are the perspectives on North Korea, Japan, and America? What do Koreans value most? June will connect the dots from history to everyday cultural practices like Korea’s age hierarchy, the thriving coffee culture, Korean spa culture, and more.

In just 2 hours, you will gain a deep understanding of Korean people and society.
