So excited for my Seoul trip next month — skincare recs please!

Hey everyone! I'm finally making the trip to Seoul in a few weeks and I'm honestly so hyped. I've been lurking in this community for ages reading everyone's posts, and now it's actually happening. I'm definitely trying to hit up some of the skincare shopping areas — I know Myeongdong is the obvious spot, but I'm curious what else is worth exploring.

I'm also really interested in getting a consultation or two at some aesthetic clinics just to see what's available there. I'm not set on doing anything major, just want to explore options and maybe get some professional skincare advice. Has anyone here done that as a visitor? I'm wondering how the consultation process works and if language is usually an issue.

Also lowkey wanting to experience some of those famous facial treatments I keep seeing recommended. Like sheet masks, ampoule treatments, stuff like that. Any must-tries that actually made a difference for you? I'm a total skincare nerd so I'm open to anything that sounds interesting!

Any other tips for a first-timer would be amazing 🙏
