I feel like I am totally lagging behind adding filming locations. Well, it is not only a feeling. There are sooo many still in draft version. Is this a usual K-Drama end-of-the-year feeling/fact?! Or is this just the counterpoint of recognizing more and more locations that I’ve seen in past dramas?
Anyhow, there was a really nice addition of new locations and addings to already existing ones these past two weeks.
Many, many thanks to deanekitty29, Juliana, Mich, ruffeecola, and Q for making this happen.
OUR HIGHLIGHTS
Mich and I sat down for out first KDL End of the Year Review (more to come!).
For the first one, we took a look at all the locations that we’ve seen most on our screens throughout 2017.
Of course, there were some locations that came less as a surprise as Incheon Airport or Wonhyo Bridge but others like Asosan were a clear eye opener.
YOLO café!!
YAY!
This is an event space in RL and I’m really happy that Mich has found this place. ♡ Definitely on my must-visit list!
Soon coming up [spoiler] is the rooftop apartment. Right now it sits on the top shelf of next locations to add. 😉
KISS, KISS, KISS
I couldn’t get that much behind this couple (I know!). But their date at Samcheok Beach [삼척해수욕장] was cute as well as that kiss.
… and a more passionate one in Meloholic at Yolgok-ro 3-gil [율곡로3길].
OUR FAVORITE STAPLES
I first really noticed Yakhyeon Cathedral [중림동약현성당] in The K2. Last seen in Black Knight, it is a classic filming location since at least 2009 with IRIS.
