Rooftop Apartment Itaewon-dong
The rooftop of this building is first seen in VIP/V.I.P. (브이아이피/Beuiaipi) (SBS, 2019) as On Yu-ri’s (Pyo Ye-jin) rooftop house, which was eventually taken over by Lee Hyun-ah (Lee Chung-ah). In episode 24 (full episode 12), Na Jung-sun (Jang Na-ra), Song Mi-na (Kwak Sun-young) and Kang Ji-young (Lee Jin-hee) have a barbeque party there in celebration of a few occasions.
This rooftop apartment appears in Ryan Gold’s (Kim Jae-wook) flashbacks as his childhood home, where he used to live with his artist mother Kong Eun-young (Lee Il-hwa) — as seen in episodes 13 and 14 of of Her Private Life (그녀의 사생활) (tvN, 2019).
Yeon Woo-Young (Kwak Dong-Yeon) moves into this rooftop apartment in episode 6 of My ID is Gangnam Beauty / ID: Gangnam Beauty (내 아이디는 강남미인) (JTBC, 2018). His student Do Kyung-Seok (Cha Eun-Woo of Astro) becomes his roommate in episode 8.
This rooftop apartment — above ‘Byeongyeong Super’ [병영슈퍼] and a real estate company — is located in Seoul’s neighborhood Itaewon [Itaewon-dong/이태원동] in the Yongsan District [Yongsan-gu/용산구], just opposite torreN [토레엔].

Another drama?
I think this rooftop house is also featured in Her Private Life, as Ryan’s (Kim Jae Wook) mother’s painting studio, as seen in flashbacks.
hi Sarah! thanks for the heads up 🙂 it is indeed, and we’ve added it to the listing!
this is a private place tbvh. there’s a cctv near the staircase…
i had to applaud dks when he brought the tv as a housewarming gift. the staircase is a bit small so its really hard to bring that upstairs. 😉
Hi, wanna know is this place open to public?
Hi Tophan, I don’t think so. It rather looks like a private place. But you can still the stairs from the outside that were also seen in the show.
