Four Seasons Hotel Seoul in Jongno District, central Seoul, partnered with local vegan beauty brand Talitha Koum, to provide guests with wellness-themed room packages, and food and spa activities.

From June to August, the Four Seasons' lobby will be adorned with dandelion decor inspired by Talitha Koum's iconic dandelion skin care line and arranged by world-renowned flower artist Nicolai Bergmann and his team. A magnificent backdrop of seasonal flowers, including limonium and gypsophila — symbolizing a dandelion in bloom — sets a dramatic stage, complemented by antique furniture and soft, white fluffy decor with accents of gold, as well as yellows and greens, said the hotel.

The partnership extends to an exclusive K-wellness and beauty package, which includes daily breakfast at The Market Kitchen for two adults, a luxurious Talitha Koum Body Care Duo set valued at 136,000 won ($100) and a Mindelay body towel to rejuvenate the skin. A yoga mat, pillow options and complimentary access to the hotel's Korean sauna for two adults, priced at 120,000 won, can further boost summertime well-being.

Confections at Four Seasons will celebrate the Talitha Koum summer collaboration with an artful cake showcasing uplifting blue sky vibes and breezy white dandelion flowers. Available to purchase for 85,000 won, each handmade creation is filled with fresh seasonal peach jelly and compote, and vanilla mousse with an almond sponge tart on the bottom, offering the fresh and sweet flavor of summer with a pleasant texture. The cake comes in a beautiful box designed by illustrator and artist Saki, adorned in Korean folk art with traditional symbols and reflecting a summery blue — perfect as a gift or a personal indulgence.

The hotel's spa will also offer the beauty brand's signature body and facial products in the shower and powder rooms, from facial cleanser to body balm. Those who sign up for a 90-minute spa treatment can get a complimentary Talitha Koum Lipcure Balm, on a first-come, first-served basis.

The hotel's bar, OUL, will offer two inventive, nature-inspired cocktails, featuring Korean rice wine, makgeolli, and Korean craft gin. In addition, OUL guests receive a Talitha Koum voucher with their drink purchase, offering 20,000 won off at the brand’s Seoul store.

“We're all set for a white dandelion-inspired summer with Talitha Koum’s vision of natural strength in beauty," Michael Schmid, general manager at the Four Seasons Hotel Seoul, said. “It's been a fun and creative journey weaving K-wellness and the white dandelion motif throughout our city haven — from our lobby to our rooms, our cocktails to our spa. I am particularly excited about the dandelion-inspired decor offering a light and bright welcome to every guest.”
