You can experience pottery making at Gilsangyo, run by Kim Jong-young, a potter who has won numerous awards for jiggering techniques of forming pottery using a spinning plaster. Based on white porcelain clay, your experience will begin with the help of an expert after choosing a pottery design. Even if you are new to pottery, you will be able to complete a piece of pottery before you know it by following the instructions of the expert. After a 30-minute experience, you will paint the pottery and bake it with your name engraved. You can receive the finished pottery by courier in about two to three weeks.
