Hello I am Imseong and you can call me Chris. Thank you for visiting my beautiful country. I used to teach Korean history and geography to teenagers. A few years ago, I had a chance to visit Australia and I got a lot of questions about Korea from people in various countries. I wanted to let them know not just an abstract saying of my country being beautiful but also its rich history. That is why I decided to become a tour guide, and studied to get the license. Since then, it has been over 9 years of working as a tour guide. So far I have met hundreds of people from various nationalities. I found out that I like meeting new people and having a conversation with them, sharing the experience of our daily life, history and abundant traditional culture as well. How much have you heard about Korea? There is a Korean proverb, "Better to see it once, than hear about it a hundred times. " But I can tell you "Better to see and hear than to see only' Pun on your questions, wants and needs including local daily life experience. All tours are customized and I will accompany you to bring fun and excitement to the destination of your choosing.

All the news on TV about North Korea this, South Korea that. . . If we know the background of the war, DMZ tour will be very helpful to understand those issues. DMZ tour is the most popular place for travelers who are interested in Korean relations between North and South. There is a 3rd infiltration tunnel which show us intention of North Korea to invade the South. We can see actual farming land of North Korea and feel how close both Korea are. We can take a view of the real life in North Korea that we didn't know. Though the zone is demilitarized, this is one of the most heavily militarized borders in the world. Don't you want to know the answer why it has to be, why South Korean can not visit North Korea, North Korean can't visit South Korea as well. We will learn more about Korean war though DMZ tour and you are able to solve your curiosity.

Chris was a wealth of information regarding all things history, culture, society, etc.- she had an informative opinion and in-depth knowledge of anything we asked her related to the tour. She also has a great sense of humor and engaging personality- we went on another tour with her the next day, as well, and would highly recommend her to anyone considering a tour of the DMZ.
Chris was an amazing tour guide. I did not know what to expect and she exceeded my expectations with her detailed knowledge about the DMZ and it's history. During the tour, Chris kept my friend John & I informed about the DMZ and Korean history, it was very interesting. Chris seems to love what she does and her passion for teaching others about the history shows. Everything about the tour was great, I loved having a private tour guide, it made it more personal. John & I were able to ask plenty of questions and we never felt rushed, it was a easy going day and I am 100% satisfied. Anyone looking for a very knowledgeable tour guide, Chris is the one. She even suggested a Korean BBQ restaurant that was near my hotel and my family and friends went there later that night for dinner and it was excellent. I highly recommend Chris for your tour, she was great!
Chris was our tour guide and she was one of the best guides we had on our entire trip!! She is VERY knowledgeable and really helps you understand what has happened and what is still happening. She picked us up from the airport for a layover tour and also brought us to lunch. She really made us think about going to Seoul again and booking more tours with her,.,MUST DO!
A very good tour which makes you think about use and abuse of power, the domino effects of shortsighted global policing and how much impact one person can have for the bad and the good. Imseong (Chris) was a fantastic guide who knows the Korean history and roots in depth. She is a dynamic personality with lots of drive, very sociable and fun and has a very much appreciated!gets things done mindset'. Big thank you to you.
Great day trip to the DMZ, despite the very foggy conditions. On-time, great driving in a comfortable vehicle, easy-going and receptive to our wants/needs. Highly recommend!
