[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Kim] Shilla Stay announced on the 17th that it will open the 'Shilla Self Photo Studio' at its Gwanghwamun branch.
The self photo studio is gaining popularity as a unique 'photo studio inside a hotel' and is expanding. The Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun 'Shilla Self Photo Studio' was created by remodeling a guest room into a self-shooting studio. To allow self-shooting in a comfortable atmosphere, only one group per time slot can make an online reservation. Visitors to the photo studio are given 20 minutes to take self black-and-white photos. After freely shooting by pressing the shutter themselves for 20 minutes and selecting the desired photos, they receive two retouched black-and-white printed photos, photo files, and a sketch video.
Usage is possible by visiting the 'Shilla Self Photo Studio' Gwanghwamun branch after making an online reservation or by creating an online reservation with a shooting voucher included in the 'Shilla Self Photo Studio' package. At Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun, the studio is available from 1 PM to 9 PM every Wednesday to Friday, and from 10 AM to 9 PM every Saturday and Sunday.
To commemorate the opening of the 'Shilla Self Photo Studio' Gwanghwamun branch, a first-come, first-served event is also being held. The event is for female customers who want to create special memories with their mothers for Christmas and the year-end, and participating customers will receive not only photo shoots but also special gifts.
The event targets 'mother-daughter' customers, and the first 10 teams will receive two books: "I Wish Mom Loved Mom Too," ranked number one in the book category on KakaoTalk Gift by publisher Hummingbird, and "Today Again I Ended Up Getting Angry at Mom," an essay collection expressing daughters' true feelings toward their mothers. The event runs until the end of February.
The 'Shilla Self Photo Studio Package,' which includes a self photo shooting voucher, also offers a party supplies set such as initial balloons, party hats, and toppers on a first-come, first-served basis to help take more lively photos.
The package consists of a room (1 night), black-and-white self photos (1 shooting voucher, photo shooting, retouching and printing of 2 photos, sketch video provided), and a party supplies set (provided on a first-come, first-served basis). It is available at Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun as well as Mapo, Samsung, and Guro branches. Non-package hotel guests are offered the shooting opportunity at a 30% discounted price.
