[SJ Returns 3] Super Junior at Samdayeon Restaurant


When this Korean filming locations blog began in 2011, Super Junior was the primary reason. As time went by, my interests evolved and it eventually became a larger map for bigger travel plans which I ought to take when I finally visit South Korea. 

Eight years after, Super Junior has returned for their 9th album and there's no other way for Manager Hyung to celebrate it but to return as well. 


EPISODE 1

1. SAMDAYEON (삼다연 )
7-20 Nonhyeondong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (서울 강남구 논현동 7-20)


As usual for the members of Super Junior, they went to one of Heechul's favorite places in Gangnam, Samdayeon. This Super Junior Returns 3 filming location is a barbecue place which sells pork from Jeju Island and is quite a famous chain in the city. Heechul mentioned in the first episode that whenever he comes to this place, he always go home drunk.

Apparently, the restaurant has an exclusive area, probably for artists. That's where SJ members ate their samgyupsal. :)

HOW TO GET HERE?

So frankly speaking, the best way to get here is to ride a taxi. The restaurant is close to a huge crossing in Gangnam but is still a few blocks from the nearest subway or bus stations.

Nonetheless, if you're like me who loves walking, maybe you can just use the Sinsa Station (신사역) and use the Exit 1.

Head straight and at the end of the second block, turn right to Dosandaero-8gil. Of course, you can go straight if you want but I'm not really interested in seeing the main highway so whatever you want is fine. :)

It's an uphill road but turn to the first alley to your left.

Then head straight until you see the Samdayeon Restaurant. It's like seven blocks away from Dosandaero-8gil but whatever, you're a fangirl. You're made for this. :p





For a cheapskate as I am, the prices in Samdayeon are quite not affordable and it's not unlimited like how it usually is in the Philippines. But then, who said Jeju pork is cheap? LOL. Aside from tangerines, black pigs are the pride of the island.

So if you're an ELF and you're traveling to Korea, and you want to eat at a famous samgyupsal restaurant in Seoul, maybe you should try this one.

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 at New SM Entertainment Building

first photo from only5_yoonjae @ weibo New SM Entertainment Seollung-ro 190-gil, Chungdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (서울특별시 강남구 청담동 선릉로190길 ) As far as I can remember, they have been using this building since the beginning of the year. I am just not sure though if it goes beyond that. Nevertheless, yeah, here's another building for SME where EXO is now commonly seen. It is quite easy to locate and definitely just a few steps away from Yeonsei Riverville .  RELATED: HOW TO BECOME AN SM TRAINEE? It's a pretty long walk but I think it's gonna be worth it if you really want to explore this part of Chungdam-dong. I mean, there are quite a number of shooting locations in the area which you may want to visit. :)
