Good to know
Why visit
- Choose the Yeonnam main store for a hand-drawn souvenir with a decision to make: a quick character sketch, a shared canvas, or a colour drawing. The attraction is seeing which features the artist picks out. Come for a playful interpretation of yourself, with room for a result that differs from your favourite selfie.naver+3
A small sketch, a shared canvas or colour?
- The main store’s linked Naver menu names a one-minute design caricature and a two-person canvas caricature. Choose the sketch for your own keepsake or the canvas for a shared picture. Allow extra time for the queue.naver
- Compare colour samples with the black-line style. In a 17 March 2026 report from the Yeonnam main store, art-supply retailer Sangsang Able tried the two-person colour drawing and said it took a little longer. The writer also sells materials used here, so this is a commercially interested visit report, not an independent endorsement. Check whether the colour option is offered that day.Naver Blog
Decide whether you want a picture or something to carry
- For a bag souvenir, ask about a keyring. A receipt-linked visitor on 4 March 2025 described turning the caricature into a keyring; a September 2026 visitor also reported ordering one. Ask about the current price and turnaround. Choose the drawing first if your schedule leaves no room for collecting a separate item.naver
A playful likeness: compare the samples
- On 3 July 2025, 바리스타갱 liked both the likeness and the speed. On 28 October 2025, 게으른어른이 enjoyed a cuter version of themselves while acknowledging that it was not quite their real appearance. An August visitor disliked the drawing but still saw value in making a memory together. Look at the samples to decide whether you enjoy the artist’s exaggeration.naver
Enjoy the small drawing-booth ritual
- The March 2026 retailer’s visit describes a cute booth and a coin-operated reveal of the finished colour portrait. A separate July 2025 customer describes taking the finished piece to the photo spot and asking for initials and a date. Photograph your souvenirs together before packing them away.Naver Blog+1
Leave room for the line
- A July 2025 customer described an outdoor queue marked with floor stickers, followed by payment and a ticket handed to the artist. Allow for waiting even when drawing itself is quick. The official directory identifies this as Yeonnam main store at 34 Donggyo-ro 38-gil; it separately lists a workshop at number 20, so keep the main-store pin when meeting friends.naver+1
