What a great tour! Any day is a great day with BTS! From “Spring Day” Ilyong station to the new HYBE building we spanned the years with BTS. Our guide Brian is amiable, flexible and knowledgeable. His english is excellent. From their humble beginnings we travelled through time visiting where they ate, where they lived and where they filmed some of their most iconic MV’s. We had done this tour before but brought our granddaughter back to enjoy her day with BTS! ARMY, do not hesitate. You will love this tour

This tour turned out to be the absolute highlight of our trip to Korea! Brian is THE BEST. He is cordial, comfortable and SO understanding of our needs and wants as true BTS ARMY. We are so grateful for having Brian as our guide. The tour is well organized but flexible. We were treated to a visit to the “Il Yong” station (from the Spring Day MV) which is presently under renovation. We then visited the humble beginnings of where the boys practice dancing and ate at the pork restaurant at which the boys ate nearly daily. We then ate (included in the tour) a delicious spicy pork lunch. As a special treat we even met the owner of the restaurant who fed the boys.. She was a delight. When asked who was her bias…. She shyly lifted up 7 fingers. All smiles and Korean hearts as we left her restaurant. We then were a bit overwhelmed to visit the humble first dormitory and the old Big Hit building both just a short walk from the restaurant. It is so amazing to see from where the boys came. Humble beginnings with a dream to dominating the world music scene! We then visited the Avenue of the Stars to take a picture with the BTS bear street side. We ended our tour at the Line store to enrich our collection of BT21 memorabilia. Quite a day! Thank you Brian for being the perfect host. He taught us about BTS but also shared about subtle nuances of Korea, the language and the Korean culture. We shared a great day, thank you Brian!
Everything was wonderful from beginning to end. Jonathan was so knowledgeable about BTS mythology and lyrical interpretation . A fantastic experience that will stay with me forevet
I want to give this more stars ⭐️ Cause this trip is worth the money and Dave & Lisa were brilliant 💜💜
Johnathan was an amazing and kind tour guide. Very well informed and prepared for every part of the tour! Highly recommend!
We had a very nice time experiencing BB films Day trip. Our guide Dave is very nice, friendly, accommodating w some of special requests.We learned so much more about BTS history, epic and K- Pop stories. He is highly recommended! Never a dull moment with him even during traffic we had very good conversations in the car. Thank you, Dave! My daughter was over the moon happy!
I had an EXTREMELY fun day on the tour today even if it was just my mum and I. The tour guides were so fun to talk to and I loved how I got to spend time at each location until I’ve taken in the sights, taken pictures and bought some merch if I wanted to. They even explained the different locations along the way and made sure that the picture matched the music video (tae at the station from spring day). I truly had a fun tour and I hope one day I can attend this tour with my friends again. This tour made my Korea trip super memorable and i will never forget how amazing it was. I’d give it 6 stars if I could. 11/10. The tour was just perfect. I got to see the run BTS filming location for one of the episodes, got to eat at the restaurant BTS used to eat at as rookies, went to the line store, went to iryeong station and k star road. We even drove on the bridge where BTS performed butter and passed by the Grammy performance building. Oh and I can’t forget hangang river :). It was a spectacular and well planed tour. I never knew I would be able to visit these places and I’m so happy I did. Hope to attend the tour again soon! >-<
Justin was our guide for this tour and he was wonderful! My friends and I have actually lived in Korea for a year and a half and we were not your average group of tour guidees. However, despite this Justin did a fantastic job showing us areas of Seoul that we wouldn't have seen on our own, and was lovely to be around. He made alterations to the schedule to better fit what we were looking for, and was extremely kind and considerate. He did a really good job at making the tour a great experience for us and I really appreciate the kindness he showed us throughout the day. I cannot recommend him enough. We started off by going to Iryeong station and taking lots of pictures there. Other highlights include Yujeong Restaurant and the old Big Hit Entertainment building, where we added a message to the huge amount of fan graffiti on the abandoned building. We then visited k-star road, all the figures for all the different groups were interesting to see. The highlight was being able to see the abandoned swimming pool in the same day, that really was a fantastic way to end the trip: surrounded the cherry blossoms in the Korean spring time while also enjoying taking pictures at the pool was a memory I wont forget. We were also given a folder full of wonderful pictures that were taken throughout the day, and my friends and I had a great time looking through them afterwards. They were high quality and Justin was extremely professional in taking them and also sending them over to us so quickly. I would highly recommend this tour, it is worth the money and I would recommend it for people who are looking to get a bit more of a personal approach to exploring that side of Seoul.
Thank you so much to 재/Jay, our tour guide. He was so kind and welcoming from the start. My family and I had so much fun on this tour, even if I was the only ARMY. He let us decide how much time we wanted to dedicate to each destination, so we never felt pressured. I can’t believe I went on this tour of an ARMY’s dream! This tour is definitely the next best thing to actually seeing BTS 😆
I went on the tour on October 25th, 2019 with my friends and it was an amazing experience. Our tour guide Brian was the best!! We started off going to the Iryeong station (where they filmed part of the spring day mv), then headed to the line friends store where bts created their characters, next was the cafe andgather where the boys created their own signature drinks during an episode of run, we stopped by yoojung sikdang and the min's cafe where the boys spent a lot of time at as trainees. We were also able to go to laundry pizza where they took pictures for their album love yourself: her. And we stopped by the old bighit building and kstar road to see their bear. In addition to all this, Brian took us to extra places not on the tour. Such as, the house of bts (their pop up shop during the speak yourself final concerts) and helped us get our personalized tmoney cards. He was very informative not only about bts but about korea in general and he shared a lot of interesting things about the country that we never knew. He also had clips prepared of bts at all the places we went to. I definitely recommend this tour for all armys and I highly recommend asking for Brian if you can. He truly helped us explore korea finding places we wouldn't have been able to on our own and helped us see bts. I'm truly grateful.
Aloha Brian, Being very excited to tour around korea and see first hand the filming locations and photo locations of BTS, our tour guide Brian did an amazing job at making the experience a memorable one! He had gone above and beyond durring the tour and even took the time to help with other excursions outside of the tour. For references guiding us to where we could get our Rail cards for subway use. Brian is above all a fantastic guide, easy to talk to, and is willing to provide every A.R.M.Y with a well orientated tour. Would definitely tour with him again! Mahaols from hawaii, Marie.H
Aloha!! We went in the tour on Oct 25 2019. Our tour guide Brian was the best! He took us to all the places that BTS army’s want to see. Went above and beyond to make it a memorable experience for all of us!! I would definitely book again next time. Tour was from 9-5ish. I loved the train station the most💜 Brian spoke English very well and told us a lot about the places we went to. Thank you again Brian for making our trip and tour one we will always remember 😃🌺
Jay is amazing!!! He is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable! We had so much fun!!! There was never a dull moment. He is an amazing photographer too! We were able to visit a number of BTS locations including Iryeong station, BT21 Store, Bighit building, Laundry Pizza and & Gather Cafe!! Totally worth my 19 hrs travel from Central America. I highly recommend Jay for the best South Korea Tour experience you could ever hope for! 10 Stars!!!
I booked the Bangtan Boys film location for me and my daughter. Booking was easy. Jay was our tour guide for the day and he made it super fun and was really helpful and informed us of some BTS things and also offered suggestions on where else to go. We visited the station where they shot 'Spring Day', K Star Road, Laundry Pizza and more. Jay also offered to take photos for us which was lovely and sent them to us. We could not have asked for a better tour guide.
Our tour guide name was Jay. He was great and english is very well. We had a great time with him and a lot of fun. He did not rush us which was great to know we could take are time. He gave us a lot of information about every place we went and Korea too. Would love to do it again. Jay was great and would love to have him again for a tour.
A must private tour for BTS fans: my daughter loved it. Jay was a very good guide. Instead of Laundry Pizza for lunch, he proposed to bring us to the Korean restaurant where BTS used to eating when they started their career.
My mom and I absolutely LOVED the Bangtan Boys Film Location Private Day Trip Tour, our tour guide Brian was GREAT, super kind and explained everything to us, and I was so happy that I was able to talk and ask him questions about Korea and Kpop! We had a lot of fun, and we were so happy and comfortable with Brian that it felt like family! (: We are so grateful for his help with pictures as well, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this tour, and Brian!(: We are truly grateful for the amazing experience, we will never forget such wonderful memories! We hope to visit Korea again next year and we will definitely want Brian as our tour guide, he is the BEST! :D
Our guide Jay, took great care of us. Making sure we can experience all locations to the fullest. Even recommending us places to eat. We had much fun and will take this experience with us. Thank you Jay!
Brian was an amazing tour guide who was always willing to help with photos and showing us the best places. I went with my 2 daughters on the BTS tour and was very impressed by Brian’s kindness and knowledge. He was able to answer many of our questions about Korea and the Koop industry as a whole. We really appreciated his caring spirit and would definitely recommend this tour to others who love BTS. Hopefully in the future we can go on another tour with Brian because traveling with him was a pleasure.
Brian picked up my son and our two nieces! We were a little worried about having them go alone with him but he was very honest and immediately put our fears at ease. The kids said that it was well worth the money and they had a great time. They got to see all the places where BTS made their videos and the tour comes with a delicious lunch. Brian had them go to different stores to buy souvenirs. They had a blast!!
Justin came well prepared for the tour. He took us to so many sites, even to the Min Cafe and the Yujeong Restaurant where BTS members ate before. On top of it are the flagship stores of BT21 and of course SM Town. He was very knowledgeable, patient and kind. We recommend Justin!
My faughter and I booked 3 tours with One Day Korea, BTS tour; Goblin Tour and DMZ tour. Jay was our guide for both BTS and Goblin tour. He is most friendly and accommodating. Highlights for the tour was Ireyong station, abandoned swimming pool, Bangtan Bibimbab lunch at Yoojung Sikdang (restaurant where BTS frequented when they were still at old BigHit premise), the Cafe where BTS played barista at one of the Run episodes and BT21 store at Itaewon. For Goblin tour, we requested to go to Jumunjin Beach where BTS bus stop was, which is also near the break water where Goblin was filmed. Lunch and coffee was at Amrok coffee street and tour ended with the picturesque forest trail at Woljeongsa temple and the temple itself, both filming location of Goblin. Day 3 was DMZ tour where Brian was our guide. It is worth the while to visit as you get to go to the 3rd tunnel, one of the tunnels dug by North Korea to infiltrate South Korea. Brian was great company as he often cracked jokes during the trip. Thanks to Jay and Brian for giving us a wonderful experience in Seoul as they both made us feel like we were traveling with friends and not guides. They were super accommodating, patient, great company and also helped to take great pictures. I am happy that Yan was able to help customize our Goblin tour by incorporating some of my wishlist. Will definitely book with One Korea the next time we are back in Korea, hopefully very soon.
Our tour guide Brian was very punctual when picking my friend and I up. He was very informative when it came to BTS and the locations associated with the band. Brian was very enthusiastic, energetic and very helpful. The locations were so much fun to see, I was really impressed by Brian's knowledge and professionalism. I look foward to visiting S. Korea again and working with One Day Korea tours again.
Thank's a lot Jay,, our tour was awesome. We went to a lot of places related to BTS: Spring Day & War of Hormone MV Locations,, lunch at BTS's favourite BBQ restaurant,, Shopping in BT21 store & Garosu-Gil,, Snack & photo stop at Laundry Pizza,, and Gangnam K Star Road. All in a day! We also learned a lot about Korea and the car was very very comfortable. Totally recommend One Day Korea Tour for everybody. Jay as the tour guide too. He took professional photos inspired by the MVs to us, retouched some of his favourites, and sent them to our email.
We took two private tours -the BTS film location tour and a half day tour to a strawberry farm and Dumulmeori. This is our fourth year that we have taken tours with One Day Korea. We had a fantastic tour guide, Brian who was very accommodating, considerate and great company. He is a very good photographer too. Brian is very fluent in English and a careful driver. We really enjoyed both the tours. Dumulmeori is really beautiful, scenic and relaxing (after all the shopping). It was not far from the strawberry farm. The BTS film location tour is an experience in itself. Brian dropped us at Hongdae and even recommended a cat cafe which we enjoyed. Yan was very responsive and helpful in arranging the tours. Again we had a wonderful trip with One Day Korea and would be back again.
Our guide (Brian) was friendly and attentive to the needs of the family. We needed a stop to get food and visit the washroom, and he accommodated to it. When we went to the alpaca world, instead of waiting for us at the car, he followed us throughout the trip. He also explained to us when we went travelling to various stops. It was very nice of him to do so. He is fluent in English and it was nice conversing with him. A great trip.
