"I'd love Korean friends…
but drinking-only meetups aren't really my thing."
Sound familiar?
So we made this!
An evening where making things together does the icebreaking.
2 minutes from Seokchon Station, in a 1980s-style craft studio,
Koreans and internationals team up in fours.
Carve away — you'll be chatting before you even notice.

· The wood? Furniture offcuts and upcycled skateboards — endless grains and colors to pick from
· Engrave your own pattern or lettering for a truly one-of-a-kind ring (optional, +20,000 KRW)
· On Perfume Day (Aug 17): 60+ premium-brand fragrance oils to blend your own
· And no one-day shortcuts — the full 10-step process, from cutting to oil finish
When the making is done, we drink the day's sool together!
From makgeolli to Andong soju —
Korean traditional liquor in hand, conversation with your new Korean friends just flows.
Not a drinker? Totally fine — soft drinks are ready too, zero pressure.
☑️ This is for you if…
· You want to make Korean friends for real → any language level works; your hands do the talking!
· You like meeting people, but loud drinking parties aren't it → tables of four, in a quiet studio
· You want to take home something you actually made → your piece goes home with you, memories included
Still hesitating? Fair — here's the safety net.
· 1,300+ reviews across platforms — ★4.98 on Naver, ★4.96 on Airbnb. The studio teachers care for every step, 1:1
· KONNECT host Henry runs the night himself, from team-matching to icebreakers — he's hosted everything from university Korean-language-institute events to escape-room socials.

Henry
Hi, I'm Henry — I run KONNECT. I make Korean language & culture content as a creator, and I host every gathering and language-exchange cohort myself, because I want Koreans and internationals to become actual friends, not just contacts.
