THE KOREAN BEAUTY SHOW

Korean Skincare Tourism, Stem Cells & Beauty Concierge Services in Korea

In Part 1 of Lauren’s interview with Jennifer Seo of Aneue Concierge, the two explore the non-surgical side of Korea’s booming beauty industry, from skincare tourism and skin boosters to stem cell treatments and preventative health checkups.

If you’ve ever wondered what foreigners are really booking in Seoul, how Korean clinics differ from what’s available overseas, or what a concierge service actually does behind the scenes, this episode is your guide.

Meet Jennifer

Jennifer Seo is the founder of Aneue Concierge, a service designed to help foreigners navigate Korea’s skincare, wellness and clinic landscape with more confidence. After years of visiting Korea herself and trying different doctors, clinics and treatments, she turned that experience into a business that connects clients with vetted providers and supports them through the process with translation, coordination and aftercare guidance.
