AMORJ is a short walk from Seolleung Station — I was nervous I'd miss it because the studio doesn't announce itself with a neon sign. Clean entrance, small reception, immaculately quiet. The consultation was the part I didn't expect to take so long: 45 minutes before she touched me.

She assessed where my existing faded pigment sat, which strokes would need to go around it, and which arch shape would balance my eyes. She showed me a hand-drawn sketch and adjusted it twice based on my feedback. For my situation — old faded tattoo, very sparse natural brows — the precision was extraordinary.

  Book via WhatsApp at least 3–4 weeks in advance. They respond in under an hour. Weekday slots open up faster than weekends (which book 2–3 months out).
• 02
  Schedule your appointment for day 2 or 3 of your trip, not your last day. The first 24 hours look darker than the final result.
• 03
  Bring your passport — some Korean studios require ID for semi-permanent makeup. AMORJ's process is smooth for international visitors but good to have it ready.

  Seoul subway Line 2, Seolleung Station Exit 5 — 5-minute walk. Google Maps works perfectly in Seoul.

  No Korean sauna (jjimjilbang) or heavy sweating for 10 days after. Plan your saunas before your appointment, not after.
