It is also here that Nam Shin III makes a show out of kissing Kang So-bong (Gong Seung-yeon) in a bid to reject the marriage.

MAGAZINE COVER SHOOT

The BTS Billboard’s Cover Shoot (2018) took place here.

Korea House [한국의집 민속극장] offers an insight into Korea’s traditions and culture through immersive experience programmes and arts performances. It was originally Korea’s government reception hall in 1957, and went through a refurbishment in the late 70s-early 80s to reopen as the Korea House of today. It is located in Seoul’s neighborhood of Pildong 2(i)-ga [필동2가] in the Jung District [Jung-gu/중구].

The scene in Are You Human? was filmed at the Cheongwoojeong Pavillion [청우전고/聽雨亭], which was built in 1988. Its hanja words translate to ‘pavilion for listening to the rain’ – a place quiet and tranquil enough to be able to hear the soft patter of raindrops.
