About this place
NotesA neighbourhood bathhouse in the Huam-dong lanes behind Seoul Station, on the way up to Namsan. The former Daedo Sauna was refitted in 2025 with cypress dry and steam saunas and a far-infrared room; the men's side has a sleeping room and a barber. A scrubber works on both sides. Posted reviews put the women's basic scrub at 30,000 won and a back-only scrub at 18,000 won; ask for the men's price at the counter. Entry is 12,000 won for adults and 10,000 won for children. Hours are 05:00 to 19:00, closed every Tuesday. It is about 830 m from Seoul Station Exit 12 and also walkable from Sookmyung Women's University Station. Parking is available. LUWEI has not used this bathhouse; this page summarises Naver Place listings and public reviews. Confirm prices and the scrubber's hours by phone before you go.

No booking needed
Just walk in
Places like this do not take bookings. Pay at the counter and go in. Know the steps below and a first visit is fine.
From the door to the exit
- Pay the entry fee at the counter. Many take cards, but a little cash is the safe bet. You get a shoe-locker key.
- Put everything in a locker in the changing room. The bath area is fully nude — no swimwear. Wear the key on your wrist.
- Shower before entering any tub. This is the one rule everyone notices.
- For a body scrub (seshin), go straight to the scrub attendant inside the bath area. Usually cash, and you wait your turn.
- Return the key at the counter on the way out. Some places settle extras (scrub, drinks) at that point.
Good to know
- Men and women bathe separately. In jjimjilbang common areas you wear the provided sauna clothes.
- Large tattoos may be refused at some places. If that concerns you, check before you go.
- A towel is usually provided but small. Scrub mitts, toothbrushes and razors are sold at the counter.
- No photos inside the bath area. Easiest to leave your phone in the locker.
- Prices and hours are compiled from public information and may have changed. If you are coming from far, one phone call is worth it.
