ID photos are taken to prove your identity, but they can be used in various ways.
In Korea, people have started taking ID photos not only for submission purposes but also to keep as personal records or souvenirs.
Each photo studio in Korea has its own style when it comes to ID photos. If you’re not in a rush and don’t need to submit the photo immediately, it can be fun to find a studio with a style you like.
If you prefer warm and calm tones in your photos, why not try Cheese Smile Studio? Located in Anguk (Bukchon), it’s popular among both locals and foreigners. While the studio works by appointment, you can also walk in for ID or passport photos. However, it’s recommended to contact them ahead of time.

Cheese Smile Studio’s signature warm tones give subjects a more elegant and relaxed look. The soft 'ivory' color works well with anyone, regardless of age or gender.
Not only do they offer ID photos, but passport and visa photos are also available for the same price. Since visa photo sizes vary by country, just let the photographer know in advance, and they can adjust the size accordingly.
Recently, more people are booking ID photo sessions for resumes and job applications. A photo is the first thing a hiring manager sees on your resume, and Cheese Smile Studio’s soft tones could help leave a gentle, positive impression—maybe even increasing your chances of landing the job!
