Rebekah found the lesson approachable and fun, and later used some of the kimchi in a stew at home.
Sarah liked the friendly teacher and one-hour length. In her 2025 visit, the email address differed from the correct listing address near Gyeongbokgung Station.
A Filipino traveller appreciated step-by-step help, neatly packed kimchi, and pancake and tea after the lesson.
