you can try wearing Hanbok in M-Plaza, which is located in Myeongdong area. Actually its not a new place in Myeongdong, but its so famous recently since there are so many people going to Korea for a short getaway.
Do you know Hanbok?? Hanbok is traditional Korean dress. It is often characterized by vibrant colors and simple lines without pockets.

Rather than embroidery, which was reserved for royal wear, color is the most important element Hanbok is all about color. The color is the design. It's not about what's stuck on it.
These days, Koreans themselves tend to break out the Hanbok only for special occasions such as weddings, funerals, first birthdays and major family gatherings.
If you go to Myeongdong, you can try to wear it for FREE! yes for free!~ you have 15 minutes to go around with pretty Hanbok and the cute accessories. they also provide the photo booth with very nice background. If you go to Myeongdong alone, dont worry. you can ask the staff to help taking pics for you~ they are so nice! ^^
Seoul Global Culture and Tourism Center is located in Myeongdong M-Plaza 5th floor. They have first come-first served service. so, you have to go earlier to do booking first, and they will tell you what time you have to go back to Seoul Global Culture and Tourism Center. While waiting your turn, you can go around Myeongdong for 1-2 hours, and violaaaa your turn will come.
Some staffs there will help you to wear the Hanbok and some accessories such a headband or hairpin. After that, you will be ready to take beautiful pics with beautiful background.
unfortunately it's closed every weekend and public holidays T_T Please make sure you go on the right time.
For the booking time, I recommend you to go before lunch time, because I went there after lunch time twice and its fully booked! T_T
Myeongdong M-Plaza is the black building, right beside Forever 21. There's ZARA on the 1st floor so you will not miss it :)
