You can now rent an oppa to accompany you through your travels in South Korea


You can now live the dream of having an oppa tour you around South Korea like you see in K-dramas, thanks to an online travel platform that lets you rent oppas — aka hot older men — for a few hours.

Oh My Oppa will let choose from seven different oppas to on tour dates with around Korea. They each have their own itineraries, customized according on their personality, profession and interests. Tourists, no need to worry about the language barrier — most of them speak English.

One package tour with an oppa-for-rent lasts for 2 hours and 30 minutes and usually costs $60 to $70 dollars.

Sounds sweet, yes? Everything can be done online — from picking your preferred oppa, checking their availability, and finally to paying for your booking. From there, you will receive a confirmation email that will allow you to contact your Oppa through Kakao Talk.

Below are the kinds of oppa for each personality. You're welcome!
