Courses and prices — three scrub-only courses, plus 120–220-minute sets with a massage
Scrub-only courses (women only)
· VIP Body Scrub, 90 min, ₩170,000 — private tub plus an herbal lymph-gel massage
· Premium Body Scrub, 70 min, ₩120,000 — private tub included
· Basic Body Scrub, 60 min, ₩80,000 — the venue's menu doesn't list what's included, so check the studio page before booking
Scrub + massage or facial sets (women only, since they include the scrub)
· "Premium (private tub)" sets, 130–220 min, ₩220,000–400,000
· "Basic (shared bath)" sets, 120–210 min, ₩180,000–360,000
In the set names, "Premium" means a private tub and "Basic" means the shared bath. After the scrub come face care (aqua peel, low-frequency facial), back and legs, or a full-body oil massage, depending on the set.
If it's your first time and a Korean bathhouse feels unfamiliar, the 70-minute Premium with its private tub is the easy pick. If you want to undo a whole day of shopping, go for the 90-minute VIP or one of the sets. Prices are the venue's published list prices.
What's included — the Premium 70-minute course, step by step
According to the venue's menu, the 70-minute Premium goes in this order:
1. Traditional Korean sauna
2. Private tub
3. Body scrub
4. Body wash
5. Face pack
6. Hot towel care
7. Full-body seaweed wrap
8. Hair wash
9. Mud pack
10. Steam sauna
The 90-minute VIP adds an herbal lymph-gel massage after the hot towels; everything else is the same. The spa has an amethyst sauna, a germanium bath and a ginseng bath, and towels, shampoo and body wash are provided, so you can arrive empty-handed. There's a face-pack step, so it's easier to take your makeup off beforehand.
Good to know — men in your group can book massages only; facilities may be limited at busy times
· The scrub courses, and the bath and sauna that come with them, are women only. Men can book massage courses only — so a couple can book the same time slot, with the scrub for her and a massage for him
· The venue notes that use of the sauna and mud-pack facilities may be limited at busy times
· If you're pregnant or have a medical condition, the venue asks you to tell the staff before your treatment
· Arriving 5–10 minutes before your booking is recommended
· There's no parking, so take the subway
Myeongdong Mud Spa is a LUWEI partner (LUWEI earns a commission on bookings made through its pages). Courses, prices and hours come from the venue and public information; LUWEI has not tried them in person. A body scrub or mud pack is not a medical treatment, and how it feels varies from person to person.
Where and when — a third floor in central Myeongdong, last scrub booking 23:30
The address is 3F, 22 Myeongdong 8na-gil, Jung-gu, about a five-minute walk from Exit 6 of Myeongdong Station on Line 4. According to the venue, it's the building right next to the Adidas store in Myeongdong, across from ABC-MART.
It opens at 09:00 and closes around 03:00 the next day. The last scrub booking is 23:30 and the last massage booking 01:00 — late enough to shop and have dinner in Myeongdong first, or to drop in on the night you land.
