A wonderful review of Korean musical styles and performing arts

Reviewed by: Kelly A, 2020/01/10

We really enjoyed this experience. Korea House is located a bit out from the central downtown Seoul area, but it was well worth the trip. The show provided a review of Korea music and performance arts, all tied together by a retelling of the traditional tale of Sim Cheong. The performers were very talented and charismatic. Highly recommended!

Korea House for traditional dinner and show was outstanding!
The intimate dining and theatre experience is so much better than any large expensive stadium. Absolutely delightful and the pictures afterwards with the stars of the show .. just topped off a perfect night. Thank you from 2 x Australians

All in One Show!

Reviewed by: Mon, 2019/09/12

The show at Korea House is many things at once - there's the story aspect, the the song and dance numbers and the humor, packed in an hour-long journey into the richness of Korean culture. The show uses a popular story called Simcheong as its framework and incorporates different types of performances including upbeat drum dances, colorful fan dances and the soulful musical storytelling. I love how it meshed traditional elements and modern visual effects together and the audience participation is amusing. The theatre itself is intimate and well-maintained, Korea House is like a world on its own in the midst of a busy city. Don't miss the show while in Seoul!

Professional, authentic and a must do while in Seoul

Reviewed by: Ashana , 2019/07/07

My husband and I booked this show based off of the reviews and I'm so happy that we did. It was one of the best things we did in Seoul. The actors and musicians were all very talented. I highly recommend this show if you want to see something authentic, mesmerizing and a great price. This show could easily be performed in New York on Broadway. This show is appropriate for all age groups. They even take a picture with you at the end of the show. You may take pictures during the show but please respect their rule for no flash. Book now... you won't regret it.

Korea House folk performance

Reviewed by: Alex, 2019/05/13

Nice show, good selection od some of the more interesting forms of traditional Korea music and dance. Some of the comic elements not necessary for me but overall very enjoyable. The best way to catch the feeling of traditional Korean dance in its diversity event though these were only small glimpses and there I more to see.
Worth reading on before the show for better enjoyment and understanding

Wonderful show.

Reviewed by: Jim, 2019/04/29

The show well exceeded our expectations. We were thoroughly impressed with the performance of the artists. With the enhancement of computerized controls, it feels like you’re in a 3 D movie.
I highly recommend it.
The show started promptly so do show up on time. Also there were photos taken with the artists after the show.

Reviewed by: Nickoles, 2018/11/22

Such great energy and it was a nice surprise how interactive they are with the audience! Traveling from LA went to visit the Palaces first and came to this for an evening show and it really fullfilled my whole cultural experience with Seoul. Amazing performance, beautiful crowd and such an outstanding experience. Definitely to see for all ages! I don’t understand Korean but I knew exactly what was going on and if you don’t its still very beautiful production and hysterical comedy.

Excellent show!

Reviewed by: Claire, 2018/07/02

My husband and I went to this show last year and we were both chosen for audience participation. We went with our friends and father-in-law and were seated in the front row AND selected for audience participation again I specified I did not like audience participation but it was all amusing. My only comment is that we all loved the authentic parts of the show more rather than the scenes catered for tourists.

But the show is phenomenal and excellent. The traditional clothes are beautiful, the dancers are extremely talented not to mention the musicians! We were thoroughly impressed yet again and will be back for our own pleasure and to show our friends and family next year! Thank you for the great show!

Very enjoyable

Reviewed by: Ghazi, 2018/05/06

I enjoyed the show very much. It is about a blind poor man who had to sell his beautiful daughter encouraged by her step mother. Life took the daughter to be the wife of the king. She wanted to bring her father to her care but she had not been able to find him. So she invited all the blind in the area and that how she alt last could identify him. Lights, music and effects were very successful. The lady who played the step mother role was quite funny to me and I liked the way she made the act of an evil step mother in quite a funny way.

Reviewed by: Claire, 2017/07/13

Overall an excellent show. The live music was impressive, the hanbok display was impeccable, and the use of props and media was very creative. The only complaint I have is the audience participation. I was selected by one of the actors to come up (which I hated). Apart from that though, highly recommend!

Thank you for your compliment and I am sorry but we didn't know you hate to participate in the showㅜㅜ. But I think other audience, thanks to you, could enjoy the show more. I hope you have an excellent day!!! Thank you. -Koreahouse-

An awesome way to finish a trip to Seoul

Reviewed by: Claudia, 2017/03/20

This a great show with 22 musicians and dancers on scene with a great display of Korean dances and hanboks. The dinner was tasty full with delicate flavors that goes great with tea or rice wine so stay clear from soda or things that will ruin the experience. So is a really regal experience at a reasonable price. It is better first show then dinner. The place is quite near from the station so is easy to access and holds a Korean activity center.

Good Traditional Performance but avoid when a tiring day :)

Reviewed by: Danno, 2016/12/05

It was a very cultural & artistic performance. But try avoid going on a very tiring end of day as some music are slow/soothing that you may fall asleep! I love traditional shows but sometimes the exhaustion takes over!

Thank you very much for your review. Koreahouse performance is changed a lot from 17th May 2016. It became more excited. If you have any chance to visit Korea, visit us again and compare the performance. ^^ Have a great day~!!!

Fantastic Show! Dinner: Tiny, Delicious, Filling

Reviewed by: Joy T., 2016/02/26

My husband and I had a royal dinner that had about 10 courses. When we got our first course, I was disappointed because it was so tiny. However, as each course came out we got very full and I felt like I learned much about Korea. Culture with each dish. From eating with hands with the dried fruit snack to wrapping meats with vegetables. Dinner was great. The show was even better! The hanboks the dancers wore were very beautiful. But my favorite were the musicans. They really have great multitasking skills.

Korea House (Performance only)

Reviewed by: Katayama Jitsuo, 2014/07/11

It put me in touch with a lot of Korea's culture. The more upbeat shows of NANTA and bebop etc. are also wonderful and were very enjoyable, but this really taught me about Korean culture and was a good experience. You can also get a food experience at the Korea House, which I think is also recommended to do.

It was an impressive performance

Reviewed by: Chigasaki, 2014/07/11

I watched the performance. Although I tend to focus on gourmet and shopping, this time the higher degree of perfection of the performances at Korea House was also wonderful. Usually when we speak of traditional dances, I would expect them to be formal and boring, but in reality, the dances were dynamic and despite not understanding the language, I was able to feel the passion. In my opinion it is a good opportunity to experience Korean culture, regardless of age and gender.
