Description
Featured on national television news
Explore Korean shamanism through a guided walk on Inwangsan, one of Seoul’s most spiritually significant mountains.
We start near Dongnimmun Station and walk along a peaceful forest trail while learning how shamanism has shaped Korean culture for centuries. Along the way, you’ll visit hidden shrines and see real offerings left by locals, gaining insight into how Koreans connect with spirits, nature, and fate.
At Guksadang, Seoul’s most famous shaman shrine, you’ll hear stories about traditional rituals, mudang (shamans), and the role they still play in modern Korea.
The experience ends with a private 1:1 session with a real Korean shaman (with interpretation), where you can receive guidance on topics like life, relationships, or career.
This is a respectful cultural experience—not a performance or staged event.
