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.

“5 stars is not enough!”
If you are looking for perfect Seoul tour guide, you can stop your search as you’ve found her. Juhee is incredible! As a licensed tour guide, she is exceptionally knowledgeable about Seoul and its history. We traveled from hiking in the mountains to relaxing by the river, visiting palaces and markets in between. Her tours can be customized to meet your specific interests, with real-time adaptation during the tour itself. Her English is near flawless (better than mine at times). Beyond traditional guide services, her laughter and smiling are contagious. You can not help but enjoy the entire tour, creating happy memories that will last forever. I have had many tour guides over the years, and Juhee is by far the best. Have no hesitation in booking a tour with Juhee.

“Magical Sunset Picnic at the Han River with Lovely Juhee”
Juhee made our Han River picnic one of the highlights of our Seoul trip. The sunset was absolutely magical, with the most beautiful colors over the river, and she had everything set up so well that we could just relax and enjoy it. She was incredibly organized and informative. She walked me through all the equipment options and kept my budget in mind the whole way, so I never felt pressured. She was just as open and helpful with the food. We really wanted to do the convenience store instant noodle cooking, and she was so excited to help us make it happen! She even went above and beyond by bringing games to the picnic and treating us to extra snacks. We really appreciated it. Juhee knows the area really well, and she's a K-pop enthusiast too, especially Blackpink. She even did some impromptu dances with my daughter right there at the park, and we got it all on video. She's a fantastic dancer, and it was such a fun, joyful moment that my daughter will remember for a long time. Her English is extremely fluent (she's bilingual in English and Korean), and she's so warm and easy to be around. I highly recommend Juhee, and I'd definitely book her again for other activities in Seoul if we get the chance. Thank you so much, Juhee!

“Fun Learning Experience”
Juhee was an excellent teacher and provided a great experience in learning the basics of the Korean language. She provided materials that were easy to understand and relevant to everyday usage for my trip. My confidence level going into stores and restaurants has increased with my newly gained knowledge and helpful phrases to use. I highly recommend booking time with Juhee, as she has a lot of knowledge to share.

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.
