When Chae Eun-hwan (Gong Hyo-jin) transits through this station on her way to the police station –still dressed in a high school uniform and closely followed by Cha Sang-doo (Jung Ji-hoon/Rain)– in episode 1 of Sang Doo! Let’s Go to School (상두야, 학교가자!) (KBS2, 2003), she is stopped by a group of male high-schoolers and only when she gets their home teacher on the phone they believe her that she is indeed a teacher.

Young Hee-su (Kim Ok-bin) gets a call from Pride Entertainment for an audition to be a background dancer for Rex when at this station in episode 1 of Over the Rainbow (오버 더 레인보우) (MBC, 2006). She then walks past Kwon Hyeok-ju (Ji Hyun-woo) and his crew who regularly train their breakdance moves here and she helps him to get a move right.

Best friends Won Hae-hyo (Byeon Woo-seok) and Sa Hye-jun (Park Bo-gum) walk over this overpass and part ways halfway in episode 8 of Record of Youth/The Moment/Youth Record (청춘기록) (tvN, 2020); just after Hye-jun got the news that he has been casted into the drama Gateway.
