Pink flower basket at a Byeongjeom flower shop: Jeongjik Farm Flower

After deciding to get married, I had to meet my boyfriend's parents for the first time, and I spent a while thinking about what gift to bring — in the end I went with a flower basket. While looking around flower shops near Dongtan, I heard about a 24-hour flower shop run by a florist with 19 years of experience, so I visited Jeongjik Farm Flower (정직팜플라워). It was only about a 7-minute walk from Byeongjeom Station, closer than I expected.

A 7-minute walk from Byeongjeom Station, open 24 hours

Being near Byeongjeom Station made it easy to find, and best of all, since it's a 24-hour flower shop in Byeongjeom, you can buy flowers even late at night. I happened to visit while the owner was there, and she explained the flowers in detail, which really helped me pick out the right gift for a first meeting.

How much does a flower basket cost at Jeongjik Farm Flower?

Jeongjik Farm Flower's price list ranges from small to large sizes so you can choose according to your budget. I bought the flower basket size M (₩60,000), and the quality was great for the price — the owner even threw in extra flowers as a bonus, so I ended up with a really full, pretty basket!

What can you buy inside the Jeongjik Farm Flower shop?

Inside the shop, there were already many pre-made bouquets in various types and sizes. Custom orders are also possible, but if you need flowers in a hurry, you can just grab a ready-made bouquet, which seemed really convenient. So it looked like a good spot not only for people looking into flower delivery in Byeongjeom, but also for those who want to visit in person and pick out flowers themselves.

They also sell artificial flowers, and the quality was good enough that I mistook them for real flowers at first glance. Between the fresh flower bouquets and the artificial flowers in different styles, it was fun just to browse.

They also sell potted plants, so you can browse those alongside the flowers. It seems like a good option if you're looking for a plant to keep at home or a light gift besides flowers.

Buying flowers any hour with self-checkout

Self-checkout is available, so you can buy flowers 24 hours a day, and everything you need — instructions, flower wrapping bags, and so on — was well prepared. The guidance was easy to follow, so it seems like you could use the shop without any worries even when the owner isn't around.

The pink size M flower basket for meeting his parents

Here's the flower basket I bought! I got the M size, and isn't it so full and pretty, haha ㅜㅜ Since this was for meeting my boyfriend's parents for the first time, I wanted something bright and clean rather than overly flashy or overwhelming. So I just told the owner to make it pretty in pink tones and left the rest up to her. And she really nailed exactly the look I wanted — I was so happy with it!!!

The owner was there when I visited, so she explained the flower composition in detail. My basket had carnations, roses, lisianthus, gerbera daisies, gomphrena, foxtail grass, sinensis, and small chrysanthemums, plus bonus flowers added on top, which made it even fuller. The color palette was a soft pink, which suited a flower gift for meeting parents really well.

The owner mentioned she's a florist with 19 years of experience, and I think that's why she was able to put together such a pretty combination of flower types just from me mentioning the color scheme I wanted. If you don't know much about flowers and aren't sure what to choose, it seems fine to just tell them your budget and preferred color and leave the rest to them. I basically trusted her with this one, and it turned out really well, haha.

Is Jeongjik Farm Flower worth it for a first-meeting flower gift?

This time I was looking into flower gifts in Dongtan ahead of meeting my boyfriend's parents for the first time, and I was satisfied with how nicely the flower basket turned out. Being close to Byeongjeom Station and available 24 hours also seemed like it would be convenient on days when you need flowers urgently!

If you're preparing a flower gift for an occasion that calls for a bit more care, like meeting parents for the first time or an anniversary, I'd recommend just sharing your preferred color and budget and leaving the arrangement to them. Thanks to the flowers, I was able to make the first-meeting occasion a little nicer, and I was relieved that his mother loved how pretty they were. Next time I need to give flowers as a gift, I think I'll visit Jeongjik Farm Flower again.
