Seoul Seongsu Traditional Korean Knot Craft Workshop

Hear the stories behind knots and norigae
and learn traditional Korean knotting

This traditional knot workshop runs for about 1 hour at a studio in Under Stand Avenue near Seoul Forest. The experience begins with an easy-to-follow introduction to the meaning and symbolism of Korean decorative knots and the norigae, a traditional ornamental pendant.

Choose your design and colors

When booking, choose from a knot wind chime, a dragonfly knot norigae, a dragonfly knot keyring or a butterfly-wing knot norigae. At the studio, you can pick from a variety of colors to give your piece a personal touch.

Tie the knots and complete your piece with the instructor

The instructor guides you step by step, so no prior experience is needed. Rather than simply assembling parts, you'll make a norigae or keyring from scratch using authentic traditional knotting techniques, with accessories and parts handmade at the studio.

You can take your finished knot piece home as a keepsake of your trip to Korea.
