If you are visiting Seoul in mid-November, choose a Seoul K-Content Week activity that fits your trip. The event runs from November 14 to 20, 2026 at several venues: pick the Gocheok Sky Dome popup for the weekend or a weekday class, tour or dance event elsewhere in the city. Some experiences display a fee on the event site.
The programs are aimed at international tourists visiting Korea. This is a week of separate activities rather than one event that runs all day at a single venue. The weekday schedule gives a start time for each program; the weekend popup has its own hours.
Seoul K-Content at Gocheok on the weekend
On November 14 and 15, a promotional popup connected with the Melon Music Awards is scheduled at the Cloud Bridge at Gocheok Sky Dome. The city poster lists the hours as noon to 6 p.m. and mentions a K-content trend quiz, an AI photo booth and augmented reality games.
This is the choice for a weekend visitor who wants a K-pop-themed activity. The popup is separate from the weekday classes across Seoul. Admission conditions for the awards ceremony itself have not been confirmed, so use the popup details to plan the popup only.
For Gocheok Sky Dome, the festival listing places the venue approximately 299 metres from Exit 2 of Gu-il Station. Use that station for the Gocheok stop; for a weekday activity, check its individual venue before setting out.
Make something on Monday, Tuesday or Thursday
For a hands-on souvenir, consider the Seoul K-Content K-Craft Workshop on Monday, November 16. It starts at 2 p.m. at the Bukchon Traditional Craft Experience Center. The event page describes a making experience where participants create a craft souvenir. Choose it if you want to make something and Monday fits your schedule.
The K-Beauty makeup class is listed in Seoul's schedule for Tuesday, November 17 at Amore Yongsan, with starts at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. The event page describes practical makeup tips with AMOREPACIFIC. Its date tab differed from the city's schedule when checked, so resolve that discrepancy with the organizer before booking.
The K-Food cooking class is scheduled for Thursday, November 19 at 11 a.m. at Ottogi O'Kitchen Studio. It is the morning choice among these three classes. If your afternoons are already planned, the earlier start may fit better than the craft or makeup session.
Wednesday in the DDP area or Friday dance
On Wednesday, November 18, Seoul's schedule lists two experiences in the Dongdaemun Design Plaza, or DDP, area. An actor-led tour of Seoul filming locations starts at 2 p.m. The event site's listing names Korean actor Nam Jungwoo and describes stories about filming locations around DDP. Its date tab differed from the city's schedule when checked, so ask the organizer which date applies before booking.
The Seoul K-Content Night City Photo Shot is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. in the DDP area. It may suit someone looking for an evening photo activity rather than an afternoon filming-location tour. If you hope to attend both, check their durations and meeting details first.
For K-pop performance and dance, the schedule lists busking performances and a K-dance experience at DDP Eoullim Plaza on Friday, November 20 at 2 p.m. The event site calls its listing Random Play Dance & Dance Lesson. Choose this date if joining a dance activity is more appealing than the awards-related weekend popup.
How to choose an experience on the event site
Advance applications for the tourist experiences are scheduled to open on November 5, 2026 at 2 p.m. Korea Standard Time. On the official Seoul K-Content site, start with K-CONTENT PROGRAMS, choose a date, and open the activity by name. Review the individual listing's current date, time, venue, price and participation conditions before following its booking instructions.
Use the activity name as well as the date tab. When checked on November 4, the actor-led tour appeared under a page linked from November 17, although the Seoul schedule puts it on November 18. The makeup listing appeared on a page linked from November 18, while the schedule puts it on November 17. If those differences remain, contact the organizer before making a reservation or building your day around either activity.
The craft listing showed fields for full name, nationality, date of birth, an email address and either a Korean mobile number or Instagram ID. The makeup listing showed the same fields and a required time choice. These examples can help you prepare, but review the live form for the activity you choose before entering personal details. If you prefer the makeup class, look for the required time choice as well as the date. For the craft workshop, set aside time in the afternoon rather than planning around the cooking class's morning start.
What the listed prices mean for your choice
The Seoul festival listing describes the event as free, but the Seoul K-Content site showed different amounts on November 4. The craft workshop and dance listings showed ₩0; the night photo, cooking, makeup and actor-led tour listings each showed ₩5,000. The reason for the difference, including what the displayed amounts cover, was unclear.
That distinction matters if you are choosing between an activity displayed at ₩0 and one displayed at ₩5,000. The makeup page, for example, displayed ₩5,000 against both of its time choices when checked. Ask the organizer about the amount and participation conditions if the cost will decide which activity you choose.
Some listings also showed Sold out before the announced application opening. That display alone does not establish that advance booking has closed. Walk-in availability, English-language guidance and weather arrangements were not confirmed for each activity. If these affect your plans, contact the organizer listed on the event site before travelling. Last checked: November 4, 2026.
