Rates
Fees follow the length of the sitting, then the shelves it must hold.
The figures below are the amounts the desk confirms in writing. A personal learning path starts at a published fee and moves only when the shelf range changes. Payment is arranged with the desk after that note, not through this page.
| Sitting | Fee | What sets it |
|---|---|---|
| Personal Learning Path | ₩480,000 starting | Eight weeks, accounts and transactions, two reviews. Adding the token shelf inside the same eight weeks is quoted before the date is held. A longer second path is the usual alternative. |
| Desk Reading Hour | ₩65,000 | One hour, one shelf, in the Geoje room. A second hour the same day is a second fee. |
| Study Circle | ₩40,000 per seat | Four Thursday evenings. The October 2026 circle is the transactions shelf. The fee is for the seat, not per evening attended. |
| Path Checkpoint | ₩90,000 | Ninety minutes and a two-page mark-up. Page count beyond thirty is refused or split into a second sitting, told to you before you send the scan. |
Deposit on a path
A personal learning path is held with a deposit of ₩144,000, thirty percent of the starting fee. The deposit is named in the same written note as the intake time. Desk hours and checkpoints are paid in full when the time is agreed. Circle seats are confirmed when you accept the seat note; the fee is collected before the first Thursday.
What changes a path quote
- Shelves beyond accounts and transactions inside the same eight weeks
- A booklet that must carry Korean margin notes throughout, rather than at the intake only
- Postage of the home copy outside Korea
- A second reader sitting in on reviews
Those changes are priced before you travel. The starting fee already includes in-room sittings and postage inside Korea.
Questions the desk hears before a fee is agreed
Can the eight weeks shrink if I already know accounts?
The engagement stays eight weeks so the two reviews have space between them. What changes is the shelf in each row. A reader who can already explain rent may see programs earlier, not a shorter bill for fewer weeks.
Do circle seats and a path stack?
They can. The circle fee is separate because the packet is shared and the path booklet is not. Many readers take the October circle first and commission a path in November if the transactions shelf still feels loose.
Where are cancellations described?
Deposits, no-shows, and work already drafted are set out on the refund page. Ask the desk if a date needs to move before you send the deposit.
