About Tour Guide Juhee K.
Hi! I’m Juhee, a nationally certified tour guide with the heart of a teacher and a passion for sharing Korea in a meaningful way.
I have over six years of experience teaching Korean to learners from more than 20 countries, ranging from children to adults, both in the U.S. and Korea. Teaching the language naturally led me to culture and history—because once students begin to understand Korean, they always become curious about why things are done a certain way here. I’ve also taught a university summer course, “Introduction to Korean Cinema,” exploring Korean history and society through films and dramas.
That curiosity eventually brought me into tour guiding. My goal is to help visitors understand Korea through stories, context, and real-life experiences, not just facts. Thanks to my teaching background, I explain things clearly and at a comfortable pace—never rushed or overwhelming.
My tours are well-organized, interactive, and friendly. I tailor each experience to guests’ interests, introduce useful Korean expressions along the way, and connect Korea’s past with everyday life today—from royal palaces and historic sites to places locals genuinely enjoy.
If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, positive, and approachable guide, I’d love to show you around Seoul. Let’s explore Korea with curiosity, clarity, and great energy.
Important
If you don’t see a time that works, just message me in advance and I’ll make it happen. Also, if you’d like a full private tour that’s not listed, let me know—I can create a customized Seoul tour at a similar price.
I want you to fully enjoy your time in Korea and take home unforgettable memories.

“So Impressed, I Booked a Second Tour...!!!”
I was so impressed with my first day exploring Seoul with Juhee that I immediately booked a second tour with her. And once again, she exceeded my expectations! This was a completely different experience. We began in the late afternoon sunshine, explored some of Seoul's fascinating neighbourhoods and historic surroundings, watched the city transform at sunset, and continued into the evening for a wonderful water show finale. What made this tour especially memorable was experiencing Seoul at different times of day, each with its own atmosphere and character. Juhee planned everything beautifully, and her enthusiasm, knowledge, and excellent communication skills made the entire experience enjoyable. Beyond her professionalism, Juhee has a wonderful personality. She's warm, thoughtful, engaging, and genuinely passionate about sharing her country with visitors. Our conversations were every bit as memorable as the places we visited. Two tours, two very different experiences, and both outstanding. I couldn't have asked for a better guide to introduce me to Seoul. Thank you, Juhee, for two unforgettable days. Another very well-deserved five stars!

“An Outstanding Guide and a Wonderful Introduction to Seoul”
I had a wonderful day exploring Seoul with Juhee, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! From the beginning, her organization, communication skills, and attention to detail were outstanding. She speaks excellent English, has an impressive knowledge of Korean history and culture, and brings genuine enthusiasm to everything she does. Our day included exploring the palace grounds, enjoying traditional Korean tea, a delicious Korean BBQ lunch, shopping, and visiting a fascinating local market, where we met a wonderful woman making noodles. What impressed me most was Juhee's ability to combine historical knowledge with the everyday experiences that make visiting another country so memorable. She was thoughtful, engaging, flexible, and genuinely interested in making sure I enjoyed every part of the day. By the end of our time together, it felt less like a guided tour and more like exploring Seoul with a knowledgeable friend. An exceptional guide and a truly memorable experience. Five stars without hesitation!!

“Outstanding Tour Experience!!!”
Juhee provided a well organized itinerary that she had worked hard on to coordinate with me on beforehand. The teahouse she took me too was a great experience, and she was considerate to help me select a lunch location that was good for my dietary needs. We also had some very interesting and delightful conversations across the day. After the tour, she texting me multiple links to help me plan my next two solo days in Seoul, plus a series of photos from our tour. Yuhee is one the best tour guides I have ever been involved with — and I do a lot of international travel and use tour guides frequently. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I received a license in 2016 from the Korea Tourism Organization as a qualified professional tour guide. I have guided a variety of tours for people and tourists from all over the world and have been doing so for over 9 years. Before being a tour guide I spent most of my career working in the banking industry for almost 30 years, starting with Korea First Bank which later became a US based Newbridge Capital and UK based Standard Chartered Bank until I retired in 2016. My experience in the banking industry was very much customer-first and dealing with the public which laid the cornerstone and passion to becoming a tour guide. After retiring from the bank, I worked as a lecturer for a volunteering organization run by the local public office and taught students about the environment and disabilities. With various experiences and personal management skills, these challenges have provided a real life, hands on cultural nuances which will promote friendship and expand life experiences between different cultures. I'm based in Seoul but will be happily arrange the tours to Busan, Gyeongju, Sokcho, Jeonju etc. as a customized tour. Feel free to drop me a request message.
