The experience here has been incredible. I've felt welcomed from the very first moment and it was best option to meet incredible people and feel included in such a different culture. I only have words of gratitude and the desire to return in the future. I recommend this to anyone who wants to experience Korea to the fullest. Thank you MJ and the whole team 🤍. I will miss you all.

I just have to say I made so many memories during my stay here, mostly because of the people I worked and lived with. MJ is so sweet and she will help you with anything you need! It's a nice accommodation and just a short walk to the studio, even shorter to the subway station and bus stop which made everything more convenient and easy 😊

MJ and Harry were amazing hosts! They were very welcoming from the moment I arrived in Seoul and were very flexible when it came to making schedules. The apartment is nice but small sometimes, but it's not a huge issue because you're not there a lot. I was able to learn so much about the culture and make new friends, and would definitely recommend this experience :)

Harry and MJ are lovely! They try very hard to give us the work schedule we want. We had a welcoming party and I felt very welcomed. When I got sick they also offered to take me to a doctor. I learned a lot about South Korea with the students at the café and got good recommendations about Korean music and webtoos. At the accommodation, some volunteers don't respect the cleaning chores and also eat more than their share off food. The aircon works well in the rooms.

This was my first experience with World Packers, and I highly recommend it for anyone new to this program! Harry and MJ are such nice people, helpful, and passionate about what they do. It was an invaluable experience to talk to the locals, and didn't feel like work. I learned so much more about Seoul, South Korea, and Korean culture than I could have any other way. I also made so many local friends, I can't wait to go back. The area that the apartment was in was very nice and safe, around many business towers and offices. The other volunteers they accepted were quality people as well.

I honestly had the best summer of my life while working at the studio. The hosts are really amazing and I was able to connect very well with the other volunteers. We were like a big family. :) I also had the opportunuity to hang out many times with the students outside of the studio which was a very enriching experience, espicailly for me that is learning korean. I will forever be grateful for this summer and genuinely recommend it to everybody!!

I really liked the voluntary work in Seoul. It is a great way to meet local Koreans and to learn more about their lives and the Korean culture. Harry is also really friendly and always willing to help. I didn't really like the coliving as a neighborhood to live in. But in 20 minutes or so by bus, you're in one of the other fun parts of Seoul. Unfortunately I could not stay the full three weeks. But If i'm ever in Seoul again, I'll be sure to hop by the café.
