A grand revival of Korea’s first jjimjilbang
In the 1920s, on Wolmido Island in Incheon,
there once stood Korea’s first public bathhouse, “Jotang.”
Reopened late last year on a 6,000 m² site,
Incheon Jotang carries on the traditional Jotang bathing method in a modern way,
offering mineral-rich underground seawater drawn from deep rock layers.
Located just 10 minutes from Incheon International Airport,
it also features a seawater infinity pool where visitors can enjoy sunsets over the West Sea,
making it an ideal wellness spot to relax before or after a flight.
If you leave a review after visiting Incheon Jotang,
you’ll receive a free Americano at the nearby Dongyang Salt Farm Café.
Treat yourself to a relaxing cup of coffee after your spa experience.
An ocean-view spa with breathtaking seaside views
If you’re looking for both relaxation and rejuvenation,
Blue Ocean Wellness Spa is the spot for you.
Located inside the Blue Ocean Hotel,
this sauna allows you to enjoy both accommodation and relaxation in one place, making it an ideal stop on a one-night getaway to Yeongjongdo.
In particular,
the Finnish-style sauna, rarely found in typical jjimjilbangs,
along with the ocean-view hot spring baths and foot spa,
are among the main reasons many visitors come here.
As you soak in the warm water while gazing at the wide open sky,
even the chilly sea breeze will feel soft against your skin
A unique seawater sauna experience
If you want to sweat it out in quiet comfort,
there’s no place quite like Solbat Haesu Bang.
This spa operates on a 100% reservation-only basis,
allowing guests to use private sauna rooms tailored to their group size.
Unlike typical jjimjilbangs that heat rooms with fire,
this place uses steam generated from boiled seawater
and towels soaked in hot seawater
to gradually warm the body.
As time passes and the subtle scent of herbs begins to emerge,
the gentle warmth—deeply penetrating yet not overwhelming—
will slowly ease every tension in your body.
A mineral-rich seawater hot spring in the heart of the city
Even in the futuristic city of Songdo,
you can enjoy a calm and relaxing spa getaway.
Songhaeon also follows the traditional Jotang bathing method,
drawing natural seawater from 993 meters underground.
With its clean and tranquil atmosphere,
and a quieter environment compared to the often-crowded jjimjilbangs near the airport,
it offers an even more comfortable place to unwind.
Immerse yourself in the warm mineral-rich seawater
and slowly relax the muscles tightened by winter,
as you wait for spring to gently settle upon your shoulders.
