Recently, there’s been a hot topic circulating among beauty enthusiasts: for the same Rejuran PN, some Dermatology clinics in Seoul charge 270,000 to 290,000 won, while at the JRYN Seomyeon branch in Busan, it can be purchased for just 100,000 won—a price difference of nearly 200,000 won, enough to cover the cost of an additional introductory treatment. Many people thought the price was incorrect when they first saw it.
In this review, we’ll give a comprehensive assessment of JRYN Dermatology in Busan (Korean: 제이린의원 부산서면) from start to finish: real feedback from patients who’ve had treatments there, its strengths and weaknesses, price details, information about the director’s background, guidance on how to choose between its two branches, and everything related to transportation and booking procedures. Let’s start with an overall impression: it’s not one of those popular clinics driven by heavy advertising campaigns, but rather a highly regarded practice supported by local residents of Busan, international students, and repeat customers — something that can be clearly seen from the detailed feedback provided by these patients.
Let’s get to the bottom line first: For those with a limited budget who want a natural-looking result and are worried about language barriers, JRYN is definitely worth adding to your shortlist. But if you’re looking for a dramatic transformation in just one session, it might not be the right choice. I’ll go into more detail below.
I. What kind of Dermatology practice is JRYN?
Let’s start with the background. JRYN is a locally-based Dermatology chain in South Korea, with branches currently located in Seomyeon, Busan (its flagship hospital), Nampo, Busan, and Daegu. The flagship hospital in Seomyeon covers an impressive 800 pyeong in size—keep in mind that most Dermatology clinics in South Korea follow a “small but efficient” approach, so it’s rare to find ones of this scale. Such a large operation itself is proof of its stability.
The biggest advantage of having a spacious facility is that consultations, treatments, and post-treatment rest are all carried out in separate areas, so there’s no need for multiple clients to be in the same space. This ensures much better privacy and comfort. The range of services offered is also very comprehensive — from basic skin cleansing and laser treatments, to anti-aging treatments procedures like Rejuran, hyaluronic acid injections, and HIFU, as well as body management services. Tourists don’t have to visit several clinics just to meet their different needs.
It’s located right in the heart of Busan’s most vibrant Seomyeon shopping district. There are numerous department stores, restaurants, and underground shopping streets right downstairs, making it incredibly convenient to go shopping and dining right after your treatment—everything is within easy reach.
II. Honest Reviews from Real Users: Pros and Cons Revealed
✅ Advantages (top keywords from customer reviews)
1. Same price in China and South Korea – no need to worry about being overcharged. JRYN strictly adheres to a “uniform pricing policy for customers from both China and South Korea,” with transparent price lists that ensure foreigners pay exactly the same amount as locals. For overseas shoppers, this eliminates the risk of hidden “foreigner premiums,” which in itself provides a great sense of security.
2. Complete Chinese support is provided. From booking and the initial consultation to post-surgery instructions, a Chinese translator is available throughout the process. One client from Shanghai shared that she originally planned to have the procedure in Seoul, but after seeing JRYN’s post, she changed her plans right away. She had a Chinese translator with her the whole time, received clear billing, and faced no unwanted sales pitches. The very next day, she went down to Seomyeon to stroll around and enjoy pork soup rice—her schedule wasn’t affected at all.
3. The treatment is gentle with a short recovery time. A real-life experience from a Taiwanese beauty enthusiast who received Rejuran injection fillers offers valuable insights: Anesthesia was applied for 40 minutes, and the injections were done using a “shallow even distribution + gradual advancement” technique, resulting in only a slight tingling sensation similar to that of a mosquito bite. Redness subsided within an hour of the treatment, allowing her to go to Haeundae Beach wearing a mask that very afternoon to enjoy the sea—without going through the awkward “puffy face” phase she had feared.
4. Doctors don’t push unnecessary procedures. A common comment from clients is that “the doctor will first assess the skin condition before determining what treatments are needed and which aren’t.” Some people with deep Nasolabial Fold Correction concerns expect to undergo a full suite of treatments, only for the doctor to recommend starting with basic moisturizing and repair treatments, cutting their budget in half. This “diagnose first, treat later” approach is quite refreshing at clinics located in tourist areas.
⚠️ Downsides (explained clearly too)
1. Long waiting times on weekends and during popular booking periods. This is the issue most clients complain about—the effectiveness of the treatments isn’t in question, but with so many people around on weekends and during peak hours, it’s recommended to book 1–2 weeks in advance; last-minute bookings rarely result in an ideal time slot.
2. Parking in the commercial area of Seomyeon can be quite challenging. Those who drive their own cars are advised to use the parking lot at the Mitsui Building, where there’s a basic 30-minute free period. This free time can be extended depending on the duration of the treatment. Be sure to inform the front desk upon arrival, as any excess time will incur additional charges.
3. The hair removal center is not located at the main hospital. JRYN’s hair removal center is on the 1st floor of A-ONE PLAZA, next to the Mitsui Building. It has a separate entrance from the main Dermatology building. Those looking to get hair removed should confirm the location in advance to avoid getting lost.
III. Popular Procedures and Price References
The following information is compiled from the price list for JRYN’s store in Seomyeon posted on the BeautsGO platform.

IV. How are the director and doctors?
The head physician at the main branch in Seomyeon is Lee Jung-hon (이정헌), a licensed Dermatology specialist with over 15 years of experience in this field. He graduated from the School of Medicine at Inje University in South Korea and previously ran two highly rated dermatology clinics. He is also in charge of managing JRYN’s online reviews, placing great emphasis on patient cases and customer feedback—something that actually gives foreign visitors an invisible advantage, as these online ratings directly affect him personally.
His style can be described as “conservative yet meticulous”: he specializes in anti-aging treatments treatments such as ultrasound lifting and Thermage, aiming for a natural appearance rather than recommending excessive filler or overly dramatic procedures. During consultations, he first uses a skin analysis device to show you the condition of the dermis layer, then explains in detail why certain treatments are necessary and others aren’t. Clients generally comment that it feels like taking a skin care lesson.
The other doctors practicing at the clinic also mostly come from top medical schools in South Korea. The overall approach focuses on skin care and natural contour enhancement, without pushing a bunch of procedures on patients.
V. How to choose between the Seomyeon store and the Nampo store?
JRYN has two stores in Busan — just choose the one that’s closest to your itinerary.
Seomyeon Branch (Head Office): 4th Floor, Mitsui Building, 672 Jungang-daero, Busanjin-gu, Busan. It’s easily accessible right at the Seomyeon station on Lines 1 and 2 of the subway, making it ideal for those living in Seomyeon or Haeundae areas, or who want to take a stroll through Lotte Department Store or Seomyeon Underground Street as well. Hours of operation: Monday, Tuesday, and Friday – 10:30–20:00; Wednesday and Thursday – 10:30–19:00; Saturday, Sunday, and public holidays – 10:30–17:00.
A special note: the Seomyeon branch is open even on Sundays. According to the platform information, it’s listed as operating normally during South Korea’s long holiday period at the beginning of October (10/3–10/5). Many clinics in Seoul are closed on Sundays, so for travelers with tight schedules, JRYN offers much greater flexibility in terms of operating hours.
Nampo Branch: 10th and 11th floors, No. 5 Gudeo-ro, Jung, Busan. Perfect for those living in Nampo-dong or who frequent Jagachi Market or BIFF Square — you can get your treatment conveniently while shopping. Hours of operation: Monday to Friday, 10:00–20:00; Saturday, 10:00–15:00.
Both clinics offer the same prices for Korean and Chinese clients, along with services in Chinese, and their treatment options are largely similar—the main difference lies in transportation convenience. Given the busy schedules of tourists, I would recommend choosing the Seomyeon branch first, as it has the most comprehensive range of treatments and the latest equipment. Only if you’re staying in Nampo-dong should you consider the Nampo branch.
VI. Transportation Tips: You’ll arrive right after getting off at Seomyeon Station
- Subway: Take Line 1 or Line 2 to Seomyeon Station, then exit at Exit 2 and walk for about 8 minutes. It’s faster to use Exit 16, heading toward Seomyeon Mall (서면몰), with a walking time of around 3 minutes.
- Departing from the airport: Take the Gimhae International Airport Express to Sasang Station, then transfer to Line 2 of the subway to Seomyeon Station. The entire journey takes about 30–40 minutes.
- Navigation: The most accurate way is to search in Korean for “제이린의원 부산서면.” It’s located on the 4th floor of the Mitsui Building at 672 Jungang-daero.
- Driving: Mitsui Building has a dedicated parking lot with free parking for up to 30 minutes. The free time can be extended depending on the treatment duration; please inform the front desk upon arrival.
VII. Booking Methods and Day-of-Procedure Process
Here are two recommended ways to make an appointment:
1. BeautsGO online booking (highly recommended for first-time visitors): With a Chinese interface, you can find everything in one place—including hospital information, price lists, doctors’ profiles, and real customer reviews. Once you select a time slot, you can book with just one click, after which Chinese-speaking customer service will assist you throughout the process. Actual user feedback shows that bookings through this platform come at the same price as those made directly at the hospital, with no extra charges. If you need to change the appointment last minute, they’re there to help. The platform is also user-friendly regardless of time zone or language differences, and it often offers exclusive deals worth keeping an eye on.
2. Official hospital channels: JRYN offers a Chinese-language official website (cn.jryn.co.kr) as well as a service desk for international clients, making it ideal for those who want to send photos of themselves without makeup first for a preliminary consultation or to check doctor availability.
The general procedure on that day is as follows: check-in at the front desk (showing your passport) → AI skin analysis → a consultation with the clinic director to review the results → confirmation of the treatment plan and price quote → the actual treatment → post-treatment cooling compresses for soothing. A few quick tips: remember to go without makeup, as you’ll be asked to remove it before the skin analysis can be done; no decision needs to be made during the consultation—taking the quote back to your hotel to think it over overnight is totally fine. There are various payment options, so it’s best to confirm the details with the customer service staff when making the appointment.
VIII. Final Thoughts: Who Is Suitable for JRYN?
After reviewing this, let’s give everyone a summary.
Suitable demographics:
- Those looking to undergo “maintenance-style tweaks” like Rejuran, hydrating treatments, and HIFU to achieve a natural look
- On a tight budget, looking for great value, and wanting to avoid the high prices in Seoul
- No Korean foundation at all – need full Chinese translation throughout
- The itinerary is centered around Busan, perfect for those looking for a combined experience of medical aesthetics and sightseeing (the shops in Seomyeon are truly delightful).
You need to be mentally prepared first:
- It’s crowded on weekends, so book in advance 1–2 weeks for popular times
- It’s a maintenance-focused approach, not a drastic transformation one; if you’re looking for dramatic changes, you should consult a plastic surgeon.
- The hair removal clinic is located next door at A-ONE PLAZA — make sure not to get lost.
In short: stable technology, affordable prices, and excellent customer service in Chinese—these are the common praises for JRYN among beauty enthusiasts. If you have some free time during your trip to Busan, make sure to schedule a Rejuran or HIFU treatment. Afterward, head downstairs for a bowl of pork soup rice, and your medical beauty adventure will be truly perfect.

One final reminder: This review is compiled from information on public platforms and shares from other customers. When it comes to cosmetic procedures, you should still make decisions based on your own skin condition and budget. Asking all your questions clearly during a in-person consultation is the best way to avoid any pitfalls. Wishing everyone can quietly become more beautiful in Busan and impress everyone around them.
