Experience authentic K-pop in Seoul with a fun, interactive tour that combines dance lessons, hairstyling, makeup, and even short video shoots. For just $131 per person, you get about an hour and a half of hands-on activity led by a choreographer who has worked with top idols like BTS, BLACKPINK, and TWICE. It’s a rare chance to learn highlight choreography, shoot a professional-style music video, and get styled like a K-pop star — all in a lively Seoul setting.

Two things we truly appreciate about this experience are the opportunity to dance with a professional who has real industry credentials and the option to record a mini music video, turning your trip into a memorable keepsake. The studio’s flexible packages, from basic dance classes to VIP video shoots, allow you to choose how deep you want to go into the K-pop world.

One potential consideration is that the class is only around 90 minutes, which might feel brief if you’re eager to master choreography. Also, the non-refundable policy means you should be sure about your plans before booking. This tour tends to suit dedicated K-pop fans, curious travelers who want a hands-on experience, or anyone looking for a fun, immersive activity that includes styling and filming.

A Closer Look at the K-Pop Dance & Styling Tour

Imagine walking into a bright, cheerful studio in Seoul, where the energy is as contagious as the latest chart-topping K-pop hit. The experience begins with a dance lesson that’s accessible yet challenging enough to make you feel like a star. Led by a professional who has danced with BLACKPINK and BTS, the instructor, Joanna, or similar, starts with basic moves, gradually building to more complex choreography.

For those with some dance experience, the class offers a chance to refine your moves, while beginners will find the step-by-step guidance encouraging. As one enthusiastic reviewer put it, “Joanna was patient and thorough whilst teaching,” making the class suitable for a wide range of skill levels.

What really makes this experience stand out is the professional video shoot included in some packages. You’ll get your own music video-style clip, shot with a high-quality camera and, in VIP packages, edited for a cinematic look. Several reviewers mentioned how nerve-wracking but fun it was to see themselves glammed up and dancing like their idols, with one noting, “The filming looks great and I am really looking forward to the footage.”

The hair and makeup styling sessions are held nearby and are designed to give you that perfect K-pop look. Whether it’s a dramatic eye or sleek hairstyle, the stylists are skilled at making you feel like a star. Some reviews praised the professionalism of the styling team, describing it as a “fun, authentic K-pop dance lesson,” and others appreciated the photo coverage of the styling process.

The Itinerary: From Dancing to Filming

The tour begins at a centrally located meeting point on Yonsei-ro, easily accessible by public transportation. After check-in, you’re led into the studio where the dance instruction starts. The teacher guides you through the choreography, based on a level that suits your comfort, whether you’re a complete beginner or have some dance background.

The 90-minute dance session is designed to be energetic but manageable, with the instructor breaking down the moves slowly before speeding up. In the STANDARD package, you also get a 30-minute short video shoot. Here, professional cameramen record you performing the choreography, allowing you to take home a video that mimics a K-pop music video—a picture-perfect souvenir.

For those opting for VIP or PREMIUM packages, additional features include cinematic filming with gimbal stabilization and photo coverage during styling. These packages are ideal if you want to document every glamorous moment—from hair to dance moves—on high-quality photos and videos.

After filming, the experience wraps up back at the meeting point. The entire process is designed to be lively, engaging, and ultimately fun. Many reviewers noted how they felt like real idols for a moment—dancing, styling, and filming in a setting that’s more professional than most tourist activities.

Real Experiences & Honest Feedback

From glowing reviews like, “It was an amazing experience,” to more critical voices, it’s clear this tour appeals most to dedicated K-pop fans or those curious about the industry. Several reviews praise the professionalism of the instructor and the quality of the filming, with some describing the video as a highlight. One reviewer exclaimed, “Learning a cool choreography from an authentic professional dancer who worked with K-pop groups like BLACKPINK” — which speaks volumes about the experience’s authenticity.

On the flip side, a few reviewers expressed disappointment, citing delays, organizational issues, or that the short duration felt insufficient. For instance, one noted, “The hour is not enough to really learn it,” reminding potential participants to manage expectations about the learning curve within 90 minutes.

The price—$131—may seem steep for some, but considering the professional instruction, video recording, styling, and the chance to feel like a K-pop star, many find it great value for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Especially since the refund policy allows cancellations up to 8 days before, it’s worth planning ahead.
