Billing mistake by Hong Yuan?

Hong Yuan, the Chinese Restaurant, is the Pride of Westin Josun and is listed again onto Michelin Guide 2022.
The restaurant is led by its Master Chef, Mr. S.J. Jung and he has recently qualified the Master by the Chinese government.
Dim Sum is also very famous by the hands of Chef Mak King Fai who had 35 years' experience in Hong Kong.

* Caviar Xiaolongbao (캐비어 소룡포): It is delectable just like the reputation as it is, juicy and with proper temperature.
* Crispy Baked BBQ Buns (크리스피 차슈 번)

* Seafood Soup with Seaweed Fulvescens (매생이 해물 수프)
* Braised Sea Cucumber, Shrimp, Beef and Mushroom with Crab Meat Sauce (게살 류산슬)
* Fried Gopher with Spicy Garlic Sauce (깐풍 소스 볼락 튀김)
* Saurced Beef with Yellow Chives and Chinese Bun (구황부추 소고기와 꽃빵)
* Jjamppong, Jajangmyon, Fried rice (짬뽕, 자장면, 볶음밥): I admit the Jjamppong by this restaurant is one of the best in Seoul. Being with the generous amount of luxurious ingredients (scallop, abalone, sea cucumber, shrimp and squid), the soup is deep and super savory.
* Special Desserts (후식)

Trusting restaurant, I usually pay without looking carefully at the receipt details.
But this time, after having left the restaurant, I found that the charge for the course menu was accidentally doubled.
I have to be back to the restaurant but the staffs did not know their mistake before I came and claimed.
If I could not find the mistake or hadn't come back, I would have paid the wrong amount.
3 years back, I had similar experience with the Sheraton Hokkaido when the staff and even the MoD came and expressed big apology not to repeat the similar mistake.
In deed, the billing accident is not a small mistake, even if it is the Michelin restaurant or 5 star property.
I know it is a mistake, it is corrected now, so OK for me now.

Prices are not moderate but Marriott elite member can get 20% discount.
Staffs are kind and professional with the dining service.
Being with many rooms for private dining, the Cantonese Chinese can be tried in luxurious and elegant mood.

They absolutely do not spare any ingredients and gave what my money's worth. Servers were very attentive and courteous all the time. We had the special weekend dinner course and were so stuffed at the end of our meal. Side dishes they provided for free as snacks were absolutely delicious. I could just finish my meal with just those four side dishes and a bowl of fried rice without ordering anything else. From the weekend special course menu,  you can freely chose 10 items. One shared appetizer, one individual dessert, one individual noodle or fried rice, and 7 shared main dishes. If you ask the server to equally divide main dishes or appetizer into an individual plate for your party, they will do it for you. The amount of food they give you is a lot and you can freely choose from many dishes on the menu, so if you want to try out something new without costing you too much, this is your chance. Even the Individual noodle dish had a lot of seafood and ingredients in them. I specially enjoyed seafood noodle soup though it was a bit on the sweet side. It seems expensive but I think they give you a lot with a flawless service.
