About Tour Guide Jeeseon C.

Hi! I’m Jeeseon.

Over the past several years, I’ve been working as a licensed guide, leading travelers from around the world through palaces, temples, hanok villages, traditional markets, and Seoul’s hidden local neighborhoods. I especially enjoy introducing guests to off-the-beaten-path gems and sharing the city’s authentic local atmosphere. Many of my guests say it feels like exploring the city with a thoughtful local friend.


I design every tour with care, balancing history, culture, and everyday life, so each guest can experience Seoul in a personal and memorable way. Guiding is more than a job to me, it’s a way to connect people with the heart of Korea.


My tours are ideal for curious travelers who want more than just sightseeing. I specialize in:


Korean history and culture storytelling

Practical Hangul learning experiences

Hidden gem exploration for repeat travelers

An orientation tour for first-time travelers to Korea with a Hangul learning session

More “Rent a Local Friend” than tour guide

My experience with Jeeseon was undeniably the best part of my 2 week trip to South Korea. I had a very specific activity in a very crowded market plus a specific park to visit on a busy Sunday during cherry blossom festival on my wishlist and Jeeseon said “no problem, sounds fun, let’s go!” We communicated effortlessly, met up without a hitch and proceeded with our adventures as if we’d been friends all along. She translated for me, shopped with me, bought snacks and navigated the bus route to the park like a pro. She took pictures for me, we picked out street food to share and I felt like I was hanging with a very cool friend the whole time. She doesn’t just show you what you asked to see, she enjoys it with you, making the whole day feel relaxing. I knew I had made the right choice picking Jeeseon to accompany me as we chatted and watched the crowds mingle along the river. She was booked with another tour after mine ended, which disappointed me since I would have gladly paid more to enjoy more of her insights, advice and company. I’ve visited South Korea 4 times now, traveled to many other countries and have dealt with many tour guides along the way. Not a single one comes close to the care and kindness that Jeeseon showed during our day together.

Wonderful time, highlight day!

We had a really amazing tour with Jeeseon! She was responsive on the app and very easy to communicate with. She’s personable and we just enjoyed spending time with her. Super plus that she knew all the greatest spots and tool nice family pictures of us. Jeeseon had great recommendationsfor the other parts of our trip and also for skin care! she tailored the tour to be at a pace at my eight-year-old daughter would still have fun and not get bored. Highly recommend!!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I truly had such a happy time with your family, we laughed so much that day, and it’s a memory I won’t forget. It didn’t feel like I was guiding a tour, but rather spending time with friends visiting from abroad. Your lovely princess made the day even more special. It meant a lot to me that she enjoyed the tour so much. I believe the rest of your time in Korea must have been just as enjoyable, and I’m really glad I could be a part of your trip. Thank you again, and I hope we can meet again one day!

Jeeson: your local friend

Jeeson awaits you and treats you as if you had already been a good friend for years. Jeeson took me to a huge food and herbs market , then we had a lot of fun ina traditional Korean medicine center and we even took a refreshing footbath there. She navigated me through some of the trendy neighborhoods but she quickly understood that it was not my thing. At my request she took me to a cosmetic store, translated a bit since the place was very busy and patiently waited until I finished my purchases and took me back to my hotel. All in all: a very enjoyable day!

I really hope the time we spent together becomes one of your happy memories from Korea. Thank you again, and I hope you stay well until we meet again.
