K-Drama Filming Locations: Seoul, Incheon, and Gangwon Tour Routes
K-drama filming locations are the single most-asked travel question from international K-drama fans visiting Korea. The Quebec Canada scene from “Goblin”? Mostly Incheon Chinatown’s Freedom Park stairs. The Switzerland scenes from “Crash Landing on You”? Mostly Gangwon Province — Jeongseon and Pyeongchang. The revolving-door office building from “Extraordinary Attorney Woo”? Gwanghwamun D-Tower. The hopscotch playground from “Squid Game”? Filmed at Songdo, Incheon. This guide groups Korean K-drama filming locations into three lines — Seoul metro, near-Seoul day trips, and regional overnight loops — with one full overnight route at the end.

K-drama filming locations — Seoul metro line (half-day)

The most efficient half-day K-drama filming locations route in Seoul covers Gwanghwamun → Bukchon → Insadong. D-Tower (Extraordinary Attorney Woo) sits next to Gwanghwamun Square; Bukchon Hanok Village hosted scenes from Goblin and Personal Taste; the cafe alley near Anguk Station appears in dozens of romcom episodes. Add the Cheonggyecheon Stream walk in the late afternoon for the Goblin “first kiss” scene.
K-drama filming locations — near-Seoul day trips

Three day trips capture an outsized share of K-drama scenes:
- Incheon Chinatown / Songdo — Goblin’s “Quebec” stairs and Squid Game’s hopscotch playground; 1 hour from Seoul Station
- Suwon Hwaseong Fortress — Mr. Sunshine + several historical dramas; pair with the night fortress walk
- Nami Island — original Winter Sonata location, still active for Korean and international film crews
K-drama filming locations — regional overnight loops

The Swiss countryside scenes most fans associate with Crash Landing on You were filmed across Pyeongchang and Daegwallyeong (Gangwon Province) — sheep ranches, alpine pastures, snow fields. Goblin’s Quebec beach is Jumunjin Beach in northern Gangwon-do. Both pair into a 1-night Gangwon route from Seoul via KTX in 90 minutes. For the Mr. Sunshine hanok era, Andong’s Hahoe Folk Village and Sunchang both featured prominently — a Sunchang + Jeonju overnight covers two dramas in one weekend.
K-drama filming locations — recommended overnight route
A clean 1-night route mixing the most-asked spots: Day 1 morning Seoul Gwanghwamun (D-Tower, Bukchon, Cheonggyecheon) → afternoon KTX to Pyeongchang → Daegwallyeong sheep ranch (Crash Landing on You) → overnight at Pyeongchang. Day 2: morning Jumunjin Beach (Goblin red door) → KTX back to Seoul → optional Songdo Squid Game playground in the evening. Total: 7 K-drama scenes in 2 days.
K-drama filming locations — booking tips
Most filming locations are public spaces and free to access. Two exceptions: D-Tower’s 14th floor (Attorney Woo office) is only accessible via the building’s public observation hours; Songdo Central Park (Squid Game backdrop) closes the playground area on Mondays. Bring the drama screenshot on your phone — local cafés and tour drivers in Seoul, Incheon, and Pyeongchang know all the major scenes and often help you find the exact angle.
K-drama filming locations: chase the show, not the country
The most satisfying K-drama filming locations trips focus on one or two dramas you actually loved, not on a checklist of every famous scene. Pick the show, find its 5–7 main locations, and build a route around those. The result is a more focused trip with stronger memories than rushing through 30 scattered spots in three days.
