Inju-daero 211beon-gil [인주대로211번길]
No. 63 — In episode 15 of Encounter/Boyfriend (남자친구) (tvN, 2018-19), Kim Jin-hyeok (Park Bo-gum) walks despondently down this street (passing café Mind Travel) after overhearing his mother urging Cha Soo-hyun (Song Hye-kyo) to break up with him. He tries to call Soo-hyun from here but her phone is turned off. In final episode 16, Jin-hyeok goes for a walk here again in the falling snow direction community playground, not knowing that Cha Soo-hyun is heading there too to find him.
No. 63 — The staircase that leads up to this restaurant also leads up to Jung Gal-hee’s (Jin Ki-joo) house; as such, this place is seen several times in the background in The Secret Life of My Secretary/I Loved You From The Beginning/How to Train My Blind Boss (초면에 사랑합니다) (SBS, 2019) — for example, in episode 4 (full episode 2) and episodes 17 and 18 (full episode 9).
