Meeting Won Tong was a truly unique experience. The moments I shared with Zen monk Won Tong are now unforgettable. He doesn’t just talk about Buddhism—he lives it, and that made the experience deeply meaningful.
The traditional meal and the tea at the temple were the perfect way to end the day. If you’re in Busan, don’t miss the chance to meet him and learn from what he shares.

Treat yourself to a wonderful journey with this knowledgeable monk! While visiting the various sites, he will tell you many stories, and provide you with both context about Buddhism and some excellent wisdoms about life.

We completed everything according to schedule. Although the weather wasn't great, the places we visited, the views, and Sunin's stories made up for everything. Next time, I'll try group meditations. In short, I recommend it.

WonTong Sunim was very knowledgeable, and drove me around Busan to visit few temples and share more about the history and philosophy of Buddhism. Having been raised in a Buddhist family, I came into this with an existing understanding of Buddhism, but WonTong Sunim really challenged some of my ideas and enriched my overall understanding of Buddhism. I definitely feel like I gained many new takeaways and perspectives from this experience - definitely keep an open mind going into this experience!

Travelers are looking for unique experiences. Not only is Wontong himself one in a million, but the places he took us to and the information he shared was priceless. Although I am neither Buddhist nor East Asian, I have significant experience of both. Even so my questions barely scratched the surface of Wontong's deep ocean of knowledge.
