[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 Korea and you're planning to visit the place, try your luck and do so! I, myself, would want to go there because I want to see Gayeon for real!!!

I researched about the gym in Naver and learned that Seo Duwon is that trainer who teased Gayeon about her weight during the episode. If I'm not mistaken, he owns the gym, hence his name there. For more pictures of the place, you can visit this blog.

If the area looks familiar, it's because I've ID-ed the area before. Beside the gym is Once in a Blue Moon, the jazz cafe where Cunning Single Lady filmed a scene. Yes, it was Seo Kangjun in there. :p

Oh! Remember when Chanyeol was cooking and Gayeon and Minwoo were with him in the kitchen? He told the girl that his friends like her. And I'm telling you, I have this huge instinct that he was referring to the other EXO members. Screw their ideal types: quiet, timid girls (OH YES LUHAN, I'M REFERRING TO YOURS). Their personalities look like they'll go for girls who are strong enough like Gayeon. Maybe, except Kyungsoo though. :p

Thank you Manager-hyung for all your hard work!! I was wondering if you would be able to locate the gym Sistar's Soyou went to on 'I Live Alone'? I want to find a gym that does weight training but not one that is as 'intense'/crossfit/mma-focused as Gayeon's :)

What is Wrong with Secretary Kim Filming Locations [IMAGE HEAVY!]

I know I have promised to ID Korean drama filming locations of another Korean drama but I just can't help it with this one. Entitled What's Wrong with Secretary Kim, it is a story of Lee Yongjun ( Park Seojun ), the egoistical and very self-centered vice chairman of the Yunmyung Group, and his secretary, Kim Miso ( Park Minyoung ). So the vice chairman had been very, very dependent on his secretary so when she decided to resign, it took him by surprise and all hell breaks loose. LOL The drama casted KPOP idols Kim Yewon (Jewelry) and Hwang Chansung (2PM) too and I think they're doing good in their current field. <3 I can't help but laugh everytime I see Chansung on my screen. Watch the drama to know why. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. The whole story was apparently based on a manga and it's a must to watch this one. It has a light story, and will definitely make you wonder at some points. So it got me hooked easily. And when I get hooked, the locations should b

[Doctor Stranger/닥터 이방인] The Real Myeongwoo Hospital

second photo from kiis3300@Naver International St. Mary's Hospital ( 국제성모병원) Simgoklo 100-gil, 25 Seo-gu, Incheon Metropolitan City 인천 서구 심곡로100번길 25 Three episodes and I'm getting hooked. Putting Lee Jongsuk, Park Haejin and Kang Sora in one drama seems like a fatal thing to me. I love all of them!!! So yeah, I'll be ID-ing Doctor Stranger seriously now. And we'll start with this hospital. As said, it's the International St. Mary's Hospital in Incheon. In the drama, it's named as the Myeongwoo Hospital where Haejin and Sora works. It's quite a big facility considering that it has a housing facility for the residents (Maris Stella) and a mall with an indoor golf course (Wellbeing Mall) within its complex. Amazing, right? I knew all those because of their website. LOL. Visit it here . There's an English feature. FOLLOW US FOR MORE UPDATES! IMPORTANT NOTE: This post may not be 100% accurate.

[EXO Showtime] EXO Sehun and Kai at Moon Guesthouse

2nd photo from TripAdvisor Moon Guesthouse 87-1 Unni-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul (서울 종로구 운니동 87-1) Aside from going to Seoul, one of my ultimate dreams in life is to stay in a hanok, a traditional Korean house. Since April Kisses days (I was in high school back then!), I have really loved its structure and I even dreamed of living in one. Hehe. Anyway, this is where Sehun and Kai went to for their funny clip in EXO Showtime Episode 8. FOLLOW US FOR MORE UPDATES! IMPORTANT NOTE: This post may not be 100% accurate.
