MANAGER-HYUNG

It is not a secret that the number of people who travel to Korea lessened due to the MERS-CoV virus incidents. It had even affected the economy, in general, of the country, which became quite a huge blow to the nation. But as much as we all fear the virus that claimed thousands of live from all over the world, I think it doesn't erase the fact that South Korea is a beautiful country. For this reason, I acclaim the Korean Tourism Organization for still coming up with attractive and convincing advertisements promoting the different tourist destinations in South Korea. It was also a wise move to use one of the most influential Hallyu stars today, Lee Min Ho. I believe there's a KTO contest going on right now. If I'm not mistaken, they're asking people to name at least two places Min Ho visited. Well, this might serve as a cheat sheet, but anyway, enjoy!

Dongdaemun Design Plaza 281 Ulji-ro Jung-gu, Seoul (서울 중구 을지로 281) Miyoung ( Jang Nara ) anonymously received an invitation to an art exhibition of a D. Pitt one day, not knowing that the artist was actually that man who she mistook as a priest in Gongseri Cathedral . This is also where Daniel Pitt ( Choi Jinhyuk ) managed to brew jealousy on Geon ( Jang Hyuk ) after hugging the latter's wife to check who he is actually. So basically, the exhibition was filmed at the Dongdaemun Design Plaza. It is that amazing architectural piece built in the heart of Dongdaemun, just beside the top shopping malls in Seoul. It features a rather futuristic design which I can blatantly compare to a UFO. Sorry not sorry, LOL. If you're following this blog, you'll see that I've ID-ed the place quite a few times already. It was in Roommate Season 1 when Song Gayeon and Park Minwoo strolled to buy snacks for the housemates; and it was also where Cheon Songyi (Jeon ...

second photo from KoreaTimes Dongdaemun Design Plaza 2-1 Eulji-ro 7-ga, Jung-gu, Seoul (중구 을지로7가 2-1) No guys, sit down. This is not some sort of Man from the Star UFO, okay. This is actually a very, and I mean very , avantgarde style of architecture which has been one of the biggest attractions in Dongdaemun. It's the Dongdaemun Design Plaza and it houses design exhibits and collections. The Dongdaemun Design Plaza is one of the most beautiful architectural pieces in modern Seoul if you ask me. I just couldn't find that blog but it showed pictures of its interior, and boy was I blown away by its beauty! I have always been a fan of zen styles and minimalist approaches so this building kinda serves as heaven to me. Many Korean dramas had filmed their scenes there with well, Man from the Star being the most recent (I suppose!) It's an interesting place to visit, and being in Dongdaemun, I don't think it is that difficult to reach. It is literally surrounde...

second photo from pingkogirl@naver Dongdaemun Design Plaza 281 Eulji-ro, Jung-gu, Seoul (서울 중구 을지로 281) Remember that scene when Cheon Songyi had to do a stunt and she ended up in an accident? This is where it was filmed! The Dongdaemun Design Plaza is obviously one of the most splendid buildings ever designed in Seoul. I think if ever I'll go to Seoul, I will not let pass the opportunity to visit the place because it practically screams modernity and opulence, like how 5 star hotels in Seoul do! I mandate you guys to visit these blogs to see what I mean: pingkogirl | baby5250 | artedechef The Dongdaemun Design Plaza is located in the Dongdaemun area, just a few steps away from the shopping town. It is particularly close to Lotte Fitin where EXO Showtime filmed earlier this year. FOLLOW US FOR MORE UPDATES! IMPORTANT NOTE: This post may not be 100% accurate.
