Staircase Tongil-ro 18na-gil
After a long scooter ride, Yoon Tae-oh (Ji Soo) and Seo Do-hyeon (Jin-young) stop here to have a chat in episode 6 of My First First Love/Because It’s My First Love (첫사랑은 처음이라서) (Netflix, 2019). Tae-oh tries to broach the topic about Do-hyeon’s father’s rent, but the latter declined any help, saying that he’d get angry if he does. Tae-oh tells Do-hyeon that he’s planning to ask out Ryu Se-hyeon, while Do-hyeon says that he plans to confess to his crush — Han Song-yi (Jung Chae-yeon).
This staircase is located at the street Tongil-ro 18na-gil [통일로18나길] in Seoul’s neighborhood Muak [Muak-dong/무악동], in the Jongno District [Jongno-gu/종로구], enroute to Inwangsan Mountain Summit [인왕산정상], part of the Hanyang City Fortress walk [한양도성]. This lookout allows a direct view on the Inwangsan Section of Hanyangdoseong (한양도성/漢陽都城) (literally The Seoul City Wall or Fortress Wall of Seoul — also known as Hanyang City Wall).
