[Pinocchio] The Province where In Ha and Dal Po Grew Up In


Cheongsan Island
Buheung-ri, Cheongsan-myeon, Wando-gun, Jeollanam-do
(전남 완도군 청산면 부흥리)

Okayyyy. So this is like a basic filming location of Pinocchio. During the first episodes of the Korean drama, Dal Po (Lee Jongsuk) and In Ha (Park Shinhye) were students who had to ride the ferry everyday to get to their school.

Apparently, that's really the only means of transportation.

Cheongsan Island is located off the southern coast of South Jeolla province. So it's between the mainland Korea and Jeju Island, and is reachable only by ferries. It's a beautiful place filled with fields of flowers and stone walls, overlooking the ocean. Although hanok houses are still common in the area, there are hostels and commercial establishments in the area already to accommodate the growing needs of tourists.

Pinocchio sure did a great job in choosing this as a filming location. I guess it did give justification to Dal Po's character as a country bumpkin. :p

Where is the location of the apartment In-ha and family stayed in? It seems like it has a great view of the river and downtown Seoul.

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 NEXT DOOR] EXO'S HOUSE

LAMBORGHINI PENSION HOUSE Daebudo Pension Town 4 Chamsaribeonyeong-gil, Danwon-gu, Ansan-si, Gyeonggi (경기 안산시 단원구 참살이번영길 4) www.ddtown.co.kr It will be very irresponsible of me if I won't justify my long absence. Aside from being so busy with my new work (FINALLY!), I couldn't work on anything without actually finding first this location for EXO 's new web drama EXO NEXT DOOR.  After weeks of rigorous searching, I found out that the beautiful house in which Chanyeol, D.O., Sehun and Baekhyun are living at is actually called the LAMBORGHINI Pension House. It is located in Daebudo Pension Town , a village that features breathtaking houses that people can rent for vacations and as Korean drama filming locations. Now, please bear in mind that the interior shots were actually taken in SMTOWN Studio , the same studio where CALL ME BABY MV was filmed. Only the necessary establishing and exterior scenes were filmed in Ansan. To see how the Lamborghini P...
