Introduction to steam room

Jjimjilbang 찜질방 can be seen in Korean dramas, Korean dramas and Korean textbooks, and it can be called one of the representative Korean cultures. Originating from the Joseon Dynasty more than 600 years ago, it is said that King Sejong developed saunas to treat common people's illnesses. It was also a way of health care for the royal family and nobles. High temperature is used to force sweat and toxins out of the human body, promote blood circulation, eliminate fatigue, and beautify the skin. Nowadays, it has become a daily life in South Korea. Jjimjilbang usually has three areas: public bath area, jjimjilbang and heat treatment room, and rest and gathering place.
