1. If you're unsure whether you enjoy skiing, you can join a one- to two-hour introductory tour. However, if you're truly interested, you should hire a private instructor for faster learning. 2. Snowboarding is taught by two instructors to eight people (my son was sick and couldn't go, so it was actually seven). 3. The instructors were friendly, but perhaps lacked experience, as there was some time spent waiting for those arriving late with their equipment. 4. Photos were taken individually and in groups, and the results were quite good. 5. In the second hour, beginners were taken up the electric ramp and guided down, but it wasn't one-on-one, so don't expect too much. It was just a basic introduction, giving you a general understanding, and I even managed to successfully perform a leaf fall. 6. Renting protective gear is essential. In Korean ski resorts, temperatures above 0 degrees Celsius are more like ice than snow; falling will cause pain in your buttocks and knees.
The nail technician was very attentive and gentle. The finished product is gorgeous and I'm extremely satisfied. I'll definitely come back next time I have the chance! 🥰🥰
The makeup artist meticulously applied foundation and contouring with swift and efficient movements; the hairstyle was simple and natural; the receptionist and translator at the counter kindly guided us through the changing process and photoshoot; the photographer was also very friendly.
