Seven locations, with original portrait examples
Insadong · Ssamziegil
For a portrait stop on an Insadong shopping day, begin with the Ssamziegil gallery. The examples include family, friend and pet drawings. Save the second-floor address rather than relying only on the complex name.
2F Ssamziegil, 44 Insadong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul
Bukchon · Beautiful Cat
Browse the dog and cat artwork if a pet portrait is the souvenir you have in mind. The detailed Bukchon gallery also shows photo-reference examples, useful when your pet is at home.
1F, 79 Yulgok-ro 3-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul
Ikseon-dong · No. 1
The No. 1 gallery includes couple and friend portraits, including visitors in hanbok. Choose this branch deliberately: the name Ikseon-dong alone does not distinguish the two locations.
1F, 22 Donhwamun-ro 11da-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul
Ikseon-dong · No. 2
The No. 2 gallery includes drawings of several people together. If your group wants one shared picture, use those examples to discuss the composition and number of people with the artist.
17-27 Supyo-ro 28-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul
Yeonnam-dong · Hongdae area
Use the Yeonnam gallery when your day already centres on Yeonnam-dong or Hongdae. Compare the portrait examples before making a separate journey across Seoul.
Unit 1, B floor, 35 Donggyo-ro 38-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul
Jamsil · Seoul Sky
This portrait stop belongs to a Seoul Sky itinerary. The studio is listed on the 119th floor, so check entry conditions, current operations and portrait availability before travelling for it.
Seoul Sky 119F, 300 Olympic-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul
Children’s Grand Park
Consider a portrait as part of a park outing. The linked map is for Children’s Grand Park, not an exact booth pin; ask the information desk for the current location inside.
Inside Children's Grand Park, 216 Neungdong-ro, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul
Ikseon-dong No. 1 or No. 2: save the right address
The two Ikseon-dong studios have different street addresses and map destinations. If you are meeting friends, agree on the branch name and send its map in advance. The arrival guide compares both addresses and explains the station-area approach.

Choosing a studio for someone who cannot join the trip?
A person or pet can be part of your portrait idea even when they are not travelling with you. The photo guide covers clear reference pictures, who appears in the drawing, and questions about the full quote and collection schedule. Confirm the available options with the chosen studio.
Before you make the trip
- Save the exact branch address and the relevant map. Building and park pins need a final entrance or booth check.
- Browse a real artwork example and decide the number of people or pets to discuss.
- Confirm the current opening arrangements, full price, production and collection plan with the studio.
- For Jamsil, check Seoul Sky access conditions; for the park, confirm the current booth location.
Location details follow the linked studio guides and original galleries. Check the official notices for current opening arrangements before your visit.
