When traveling, it’s common to pick up some souvenirs. While there's a perception that souvenirs from tourist spots are "expensive and of low quality," Jeju is changing that with new souvenir shops that showcase local flair and creative ideas, attracting not only travelers but also locals. Let's explore some unique souvenirs that capture the memories of Jeju trips.
What if you could create a personalized souvenir? At Jito's Forest in Jeju Sehwa, you can do more than just purchase souvenirs; you can add your caricature to items or draw it yourself.
This place is operated by Jito, a famous Instagramtoon artist with over 95,000 followers. Jito, who once worked in a corporate overseas sales department, started drawing cartoons based on his daily life at the company. His work gained popularity on Instagram, leading him to become a full-time webtoon artist.
When you request a caricature, the artist quickly draws it and decorates it with a background, making it look like a concept photo. You can also provide photos to get caricatures of friends or pets, making it a great gift.
The shop is filled with a variety of goods featuring Jito’s work and characters, including postcards, notepads, keyrings, and eco-bags, all evoking a desire to collect them.
Each item incorporates Jeju’s natural scenery.
You can also book a one-day class where you can learn to draw caricatures. The programs include postcard coloring, drawing daily life comics, and creating emoticons using an iPad. The class space is available for rent, making this a recommended spot for those looking for a unique experience in Jeju.
