Place info
Hello, this is Hi, Soo, a natural light rental studio located in Munjeong-dong, Songpa-gu.
Studio Hi, Soo operates with the mission of "You Complete Me," believing that the space is completed by those who show interest and visit.
The space of Hi, Soo is divided into two main areas: a white-toned living room that enhances natural light and a hotel room with a modern yet antique atmosphere that lets in natural light.
Both spaces are located very close to a south-facing angle of 158˚ southeast, allowing for diverse natural light from sunrise to late afternoon.
The hotel room and living room each have various photo spots within the same space.
Various individuals use the space for different purposes, including clothing shopping malls, underwear, beauty products, lookbooks, personal snaps and photo shoots, body profiles, interviews, YouTube, influencer shoots, bridal shower shoots, and more.
As such, a wide range of concepts for shooting is possible.
For those doing self-shoots, we have:
- 2 full-length mirrors with square frames,
- 1 movable full-length mirror (120cm wide),
- 2 antique oval full-length mirrors suitable for the hotel room,
- 2 irregular full-length mirrors.
We have a variety of full-length mirrors available, and we will set them up according to your chosen shooting concept upon reservation.
Instead of keeping the studio in the same appearance, we provide various props to allow you to shoot new concepts each time you visit.
When making a reservation, please let us know what kind of shoot you will be doing, what concept you will be pursuing, and what products you will be shooting. We enjoy discussing and suggesting ideas, so feel free to reach out.
If you see a concept you like among the photos posted on our studio Instagram @studio.hisoo, you can capture it and send it to us.
Currently, we are running the Hi, Soo "Hello, Soo" event, so please check our Instagram posts and participate actively.

Parking is on the ground floor.
We have an elevator, but there is a half-flight of stairs on the first floor. If you have difficulty using the stairs, please let us know in advance so we can ensure your reservation day is comfortable.
Additionally, if you need a separate makeup room, we can organize the prop space for you to use as a makeup area, so please let us know if needed.
* The park in front of the studio is beautiful in spring, summer, autumn, and winter. In spring, it features cherry blossom paths comparable to Yeouido, but it is located in a residential area, making it peaceful. The cherry blossom trees are low, making it great for shooting portraits with the blossoms. Each season has its charm, such as autumn leaves and snowy scenery, making it suitable for outdoor shoots.
