Welcome to the traditional Korean bookbinding class, the only chance in Seoul you can experience the real traditional Korean bookbinding.
We will use Hanji. Hanji is the traditional Korean paper used to make Annals of the Joseon Dynasty that is listed on UNESCO Memory of the World. Joseon royal family and Korean Confucian scholars and intellectuals would use it when writing diaries or taking notes.
The cover will be made by beautiful and classy silk weaved Korean traditional pattern. Dozens of colorful threads and silk are available.
As the final touch, a No-ri-gae, traditional Korean knot is tied on the book.
You can make it and take it home right away!
