Melo Holic : Wonhyo Bridge

Wonhyo Bridge Yeouido-dong, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul 서울특별시 영등포구 여의도동 (below photo from Wikipedia) Wonhyo Bridge is the 13th bridge to be built across the Han River. It is often a filming location for many Korean dramas and I think it's mainly because of its location. As it connects Yongsan and Yeongdeungpo Districts, it is near a prime commercial and tourist center that is Yeouido. The first meeting of Yoo Eunho (Jung Yunho) and Kyung Soojin (Han Yeri) happened here. Dumped by their partners, they got drunk together. The scene appeared on the first episode of the Korean drama Melo Holic. In my opinion, Melo Holic's purpose is to reinstate Yunho as an actor. The wordplay on the name of the actor and the character was funny, but creative nonetheless. If this production becomes a success, the "Eun Ho" which is very close to "Yun Ho" will be a household name. See the logic? IMPORTANT NOTE: This post may not be 100% accurate.

EXO going to KBS Hall

KBS Hall 13 Yeouigongwon-ro, Yeouido-dong, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul As a KPOP fan, one of the major reason why I should travel to Korea is the KBS Hall in Yeouido. It is where KBS Music Bank and SJ Sukira are held. So it's most likely a nice place to see my oppars . hihi According to Visit Korea, you can use the following subway stations to get to the venue: National Assembly Station (Seoul Subway Line 9), Exit 4 Yeouido Station (Seoul Subway Line 5 or 9), Exit 3 These stations are like 20 minutes of walk away from the hall. However, buses stop exactly in front of the building. If I'm not mistaken, these following buses pass by there: 162 (Blue) 262 (Blue) 5615 (Blue) 5618 (Green) 10 (Green) 70-2 (Blue) Here's how KBS looks like: For more updates: Like us on Facebook | Follow us on Twitter | Follow us on Tumblr Important Note: This post may not be 100% accurate.

[A Gentleman's Dignity] Kim Jungnan at Marriott Executive Apartments Yeouido Park Center

second photo from Marriott's Official Website Marriott Executive Apartment Yeouido Park Center Yeouido-dong, Seoul 150-881 South Korea So I am not entirely sure if this is the same apartment which Kim Do Jin refers to as their office residence; but yeah, the hotel where Minsook had mistaken Yisoo as Rok's mistress is a serviced apartment located just a few stone throws away from Han River in Yeouido.  For more information, visit the official website . But if you are into hotel promotions, better check THIS SITE now. Maybe they have deals with Marriott. :) Oh, and for Filipinos... A Gentleman's Dignity will be aired on ABS-CBN starting November 19. I'm not sure about the time slot though.
