Hi everyone! I'm flying to Seoul in about 4 weeks and I'm honestly so excited but also a little overwhelmed lol. I've been wanting to check out Korean skincare in person for forever, and I know Seoul is basically the place to do it.

I'm curious what people actually recommend doing while you're there? Like, I'm definitely planning to hit up the skincare shops and try stuff, but I'm also wondering about getting a consultation or treatment at a clinic just to see how different the experience is. Has anyone done that as a tourist? I'm not looking to do anything crazy, just curious what the vibe is like. Also lowkey wondering if it's worth the trip or if I should just stick to ordering online lol.

Any must-try areas or things I shouldn't miss? I know there are specific neighborhoods that are known for this stuff but I'm still figuring out where to focus. And is it easier to book stuff ahead or just walk in? I'm trying to plan but also stay flexible.

Thanks in advance! Super excited to hear from people who've been there 💕
