Visiting K-drama filming locations
Popular spots reachable by subway
Quick answer
Most popular filming locations sit in and around Seoul and are subway-accessible — Bukchon Hanok Village, Cheonggyecheon stream, Olympic Park and Ikseon-dong — but visitors should respect residents' privacy.
Key facts
- Top spots
- Bukchon, Cheonggyecheon, Ikseon-dong
- Best time
- Before 09:00
Bukchon posts visiting hours of 10:00-17:00 and noise restrictions because it is a real residential area; violations can be fined.
For the exact drama angles, arrive before 9 a.m. when light is better and crowds are far thinner.
Frequently asked questions
Can I fly a drone?
