Bae Gyu-ri (Park Ju-hyun) contacts Oh Ji-soo (Kim Dong-hee) with his other phone from the top of this elevator in of episode 2 of Extracurricular (Ingansueop/인간수업) (Netflix, 2020), and is discovered by Lee Wang-chul (Choi Min-soo), who was driving in his van just under it.

Song Ha-jin (Lee Na-eun) shows Bang Young-baek (Lee Ho-won / Hoya of INFINITE) how to skate on a longboard on the upper top of this staircase on their afternoon together in Track 2 of Hip Hop King – Nassna Street (힙합왕-나스나길) (SBS, 2019).
