Wae [왜]?
If you are reading this, you are probably looking for filming locations of Korean Dramas. But why? Why is it fun to look them up? Why the curiosity to where everything really took place?
Mich gave answers to these questions in a very awesome blog post this week. ❤️
Join in and tell us your reasons in the comment section!
OUR HIGHLIGHTS
Monica has visiting tons of filming locations and shared plenty of locations from Discovery of Romance (2014) and Oh My Ghostess (2015). ❤️
Mich also boosted the Strongest Deliveryman (2017) filming location section. She found locations I thought they were lost forever in K-Drama-nowhere-land. ❤️ We’re at 21 filming locations by now!
KISS, KISS, KISS
Not a lot of kisses these past two weeks, right? So here is an older one; and a first at that in Discovery of Romance (2014).
Also, who doesn’t love World Cup Park [월드컵공원]?
OUR FAVORITE STAPLES
Last seen in Age of Youth 2 (2017), Green Cloud Coffee Shop [그린클라우드커피] is a café that would definitely make it in a 101 for K-Drama lovers. It’s trademark concrete stairs inside the café that are always decorated differently make it easily recognizable. Let us know when you see them next time!
