[Showtime-Burning the Beast/쇼타임-버닝 더 비스트] Dongwoon, Gikwang, Yoseob and Yanggaengie at Garosu-gil

Garosu-gil Sinsadong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (강남구 신사동) Before the housewarming party (and because they were actually mandated by Junhyung), three members of B2ST opted to go to Garosu-gil to buy gifts for their hyung. I'm yet to find the exact places so please just look forward to it. I don't know if the staff members just brought them there or did the three actually preferred to go to this place to shop? I mean, this place is not  a joke. LOL. It's a road brimming with expensive shops, and I mean it. A lot of Korean dramas and variety shows had filmed their scenes here. Even EXO came here for their Showtime episodes , and it still fascinates me that they're doing their shopping here. But then, they're artists. They earn money. Why should I ask? Garosu-gil is one of the most famous shopping destinations in Seoul. But believe me, if I go on a tour to South Korea, I would still come here despite the decision not to buy anything. The street is very charmi

[Roommate/룸메이트] The Lumber Shop where Chanyeol and Sungwoo Bought Wood for their Bench

Samseon Wood 106 Dongsomun-dong 1-ga, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul (성북구 동소문동1가 106) LOL DON'T JUDGE ME I DIDN'T KNOW HOW I MANAGED TO FIND THIS TOO Well, it's not like it's a tourist attraction but you see, well, LOL Chanyeol went here and maybe if I decide to pass by this place once I get to travel a place, then maybe, I'll take a picture of myself LOL FOLLOW US FOR MORE UPDATES!

[Home Alone] Sistar Soyou's Gym

PT Seorae 3rd Floor Miseong Building, 91-4Beon-ji, Banpo-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul (서울특별시 서초구 반포동 91-4번지 미성빌딩 3층) An anon requested this and good thing it was quite easy to locate! Thank you for requesting dear anon, and for sending the link! :) So this is where Sistar's Soyou went to to train. It's a cozy training gym, if you ask me, plus I like the common area. LOL For more pictures, you can visit this blog . :) If you've got questions, you can post a comment here! FOLLOW US FOR MORE UPDATES! IMPORTANT NOTE: This post may not be 100% accurate.

[On Style] JungSis Walking in Front of Fifty

FIFTY 32 Eonju-ro 168-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (서울 강남구 언주로168길 32) On the second episode of JungSis' On Style, the sisters were seen walking around Sinsadong. Then they passed by this area which is quite familiar to me, considering that I have worked so hard to find this place in the past. Haha. Yes, this FIFTY is actually where Super Junior M had their photoshoot for their first album. And yes, that involves the original members with the one that got away. Actually, the sisters didn't go to FIFTY. They were in an ice cream parlor in front of the cafe. If you're going to look around Daum Map, which is what I'm using, you'll see that the ice cream parlor they visited was formerly the General Idea store. Daum hasn't updated their maps in this area yet so yeah, I'm giving you this obvious information. hehe. Okay I said they didn't go to FIFTY right? But someone did: Super Junior's Shindong. I guess, this place really is a favorite for

[Hotel King/호텔킹] Mo Ne's Garden

In front of Intercontinental Alpensia Hotel 325 Solbong-ro, Daegwanyeong-myeon, Pyeongchang-gu, Gangwon-do (강원 평창군 대관령면 솔봉로 325) The lovely garden of Ah Mo Ne actually exists in front of the Intercontinental Alpensia Hotel. It's beautiful and lovely, an is really an isolated island.  The bridge, obviously is there. :) FOLLOW US FOR MORE UPDATES! IMPORTANT NOTE: This post may not be 100% accurate.

How to Get to MCM Flagship Store in Myeongdong

credits to the owner As we all know, MCM has decided to open a flagship store in Myeongdong and has chosen to collaborate with no other than EXO!!!! When I first heard about the news, I was instantly thrilled simply because we all know how much Yixing and Luhan love the brand even during pre-debut. For two years, the members - especially Xing - had always been using MCM snapbacks. Proves that they have always been rich kids, right? Heh. Today, June 26th, some EXO members will be gracing the opening with their presence and I'm excited! There are several controversies going around but I'm pretty certain this will end up successful. Now, cut the blabbers. How to get to MCM Myeongdong? Easy. You just have to find your own way to the Myeongdong Station (Blue Line) Exit 8 . Turn left to the small alley between Olive Young and Tous Le Jours (명동10길 / Myeongdong 10-gil) and just head straight. MCM is situated on the corner of the second block so it's easy to locate. :)

Park Minwoo and Sistar's Soyu at English Village Paju Camp for K.Will's MV for "DAY 1"

second photo from kiyoon96@Naver English Village 1779 Beomheung-ri, Tanhyeon-myeon, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do ( 경기 파주시 탄현면 법흥리 1779)   So 1theK dropped the music video of K.Will's newest song Day 1  and it starred SISTAR's Soyu and Park Minwoo, who is currently receiving a lot of love because of Roommate . The scenes were cute, I swear. The song's mood was good and it was matched by the two idols' acting. I loved how they looked so cute together, but I guess that's just Minwoo's charm since he looks good with other Roommate members too. Heh. I think most (if not all) scenes in the Korean music video were filmed in this venue. As far as I know, there's a coffee shop inside the camp, as well as a library. So yeah, I am pretty positive that everything was taken here.  Personally, the English Village Paju Camp is one of my biggest dreams. I've said that a million times, right? And even among the Korean entertainment industry, it has been an

[Triangle] Im Siwan at Sheraton Grande Walkerhill Hotel

second photo from Walkerhill Official Site Sheraton Grande Walkerhill Hotel 177 Walkerhill-ro Gwangjin-gu, Seoul (서울 광진구 워커힐로 177) So obviously, I have started on Triangle, the latest Korean drama of the badass Kim Jaejoong. It's already in its 16th episode and I'm guessing it'll be quite long before we get to see this beautiful god on our screens after this drama so let's make the most out of it, right? But ironically, the first post for Triangle shooting locations will feature Im Siwan. I'm quite curious as to what his character is, especially since he's quite reserved and silent in the first episode and he was talking to a psychologist in the scene I've posted above. But his face is in the main poster of the drama so I'm guessing he has a bigger role here. Please don't spoil me on the comments though about what he actually is. :p Anyway, the Sheraton Grande Walkerhill Hotel is one of the hotels in Walkerhill. It's beside

[Roommate/룸메이트] The Gym Where Son Gayeon Trains

Road FC Seo Duwon Gym 822 Seolleung-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (서울 강남구 선릉로 822) One of my favorite Korean people at the moment is Son Gayeon, the 20-year-old MMA female fighter who is a member of the Korean variety show Roommate . Because she's a fighter, she has this masculine appeal but if you're going to follow her in the program, you'll see that she has this very cute and feminine side on her. On Episode 5 of the show, Minwoo accompanied her to the gym where she trains. Her joy was very obvious and it made the man happy to see his friend in such state. I, myself, enjoyed watching Gayeon take on the ring, to be honest. She's focused, awesome, dedicated - even for a young woman that she is! Nowadays, it's really very rare to see young women like that, right? Now, the location. The ROADFC Seo Duwon Gym is actually located in Gangnam so it's easy to locate. It's just a few blocks away from Apgujeong Rodeo Station Exit 4 so if you're going to K

[On Style] Tiffany and Hyoyeon Buying Breads for JungSis

Alaska 15 Apgujeong-ro 14-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (서울 강남구 압구정로14길 15) Before Hyoyeon and Tiffany went to the house of JeKry, the two dropped by a bakery to buy breads for the two Jung's. Actually, I'm kinda skeptical about this entry but come to think of it, Daum says that this is the only Alaska in the Sinsadong area and I'm guessing it's the actual place since it's quite near the house. This one's in the Garosu-gil area actually. Anyway, yeah, as I was watching the two girls buying, I was feeling hungry. I've been a fan of Tous le Jours but I think I'd rather have the products of this one. Let's see. I want to eat. ://// FOLLOW US FOR MORE UPDATES! IMPORTANT NOTE: This post may not be 100% accurate.

[On Style] JeKry House

Acros Building 24 Eonju-ro 164-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (서울 강남구 언주로164길 24) So yeah, if not for FIFTY, I wouldn't have found this place! I've been trying to find the JeKry house since the first episode but I thought it was located in a not so famous place since the leads are not ordinary idols. LOL. But yeah, it's in Sinsadong, near the cafe. That's why they were just walking to get to the ice cream parlor. So as how I've deduced, the Acros Building isn't actually an apartment. I guess the whole On Style team just decided to transform an office/business space into a living quarter to give that vintage feel. It didn't fail, though. The house was really awesome! I mean, A room with no door, and a living room like that. Why won't I fall in love with it? Now, before all of you decide to fly to Seoul immediately to get here, let me inform you guys that this is a private property. I am not sure if there are guards in the building, but I am dis

[Roommate/룸메이트] Nana and Seho Visiting Dongwook in Pyeongchang

Troon Estate Country Club 439 Yongsan-ri, Daegwanyeong-myeon, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do (강원 평창군 대관령면 용산리 439) In the 5th episode of Korean variety show Roommate, Seho and Nana decided to visit Dongwook in the set of his current drama Hotel King . They kept on mentioning Pyeongchang in Gangwon-do because the main setting for the drama is actually the Intercontinental Alpensia and the Troon Estate Country Club. And yes, the Troon Estate Country Club is where Dongwook met his roommates. If you notice, it is where the houses of their characters reside. I have posted about it earlier here . The second picture I used shows houses under construction since Daum hasn't updated their maps yet for this part of Pyeonchang since 2010.  Frankly speaking, I really thought he left the show already. I mean, in the fourth episode, they even made videos for him. :/ It was very frustrating since I enjoy seeing Dongwook's playful side in the show. And I guess that expla

Davichi's Again MV Shooting Location

음메꿀꿀참숯화로 7 Bugwangro 60gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul (서울 용산구 보광로60길 7) For Davichi's newest MV, three beautiful persons were cast. One of them was F-ve Doll's Seunghee. This is one of their shooting locations. I'm not entirely sure how to translate the name of the restaurant but well, yeah, it's actually a famous one around the Itaewon area. I think it specializes in kalbi and samyupsal, and is quite popular even among celebrities. There are several autographs posted on its door after all. To see more pictures of the restaurant, kindly visit this blog . FOLLOW US FOR MORE UPDATES! IMPORTANT NOTE: This post may not be 100% accurate.
