The official site says the experience is open to all ages, with younger children needing an adult alongside them. Check the age rule on the booking page before you buy.

The Forbidden Forest Experience began in the UK in 2021 and has since visited 16 markets across four continents, drawing three million visitors, according to the announcement. Jeju is its third stop in Asia, after Singapore and China. It’s also one of several new runs this season, alongside Mexico City and Westchester, New York.
