What Oh My Oppa offers

Oh My Oppa more or less invented this category — they were the "rent an oppa in Seoul" service that made headlines back in 2018, and plenty of similar services have followed the same concept since: a friendly local, a few hours, no tourist-bus energy.

Today (July 2026, per their public booking pages) the service looks like this: several oppas, each hosting hangouts in their own themed corner of Seoul — K-music in Hongdae, fashion and hanbok around Gyeongbokgung, skincare shopping and The Hyundai, Han River picnics in Yeouido, photo-friendly walks in Jamsil and Myeongdong. Sessions are a fixed 2 hours 45 minutes at $200 for one person, with tiered group pricing that gets cheaper per person — $350 total for four.

That works out to roughly $65–73 per hour for a solo traveler. You pick an oppa, pick their course, and enjoy a curated few hours.

What Yes! Oppa does differently

Yes! Oppa is built entirely around what you need. We designed it for a longer, more personalized day. Hourly from $25 — a typical half-day lands at $100–125 for one person. There's no fixed menu — send us your itinerary to optimize, or tell us your taste and your Crew member suggests a few itinerary options. Every booking also includes our online guide: itinerary planning before you fly and real-time chat help throughout your trip, even on days your Crew member isn't beside you. And both your itinerary and your PayPal payment are documented for both sides, with a written refund policy and public Crew profiles and reviews.
