Korean drama scenes come to mind! A roundup of filming locations and must-visit spots in Korea

POPS writer/editorKEI
Since discovering music during my school days, I’ve mainly listened to Japanese and Korean pop. I have experience writing articles for sites like Utaten. 2000s J-pop and 2010s K-pop were especially the soundtrack of my youth. With the mindset that “good is good,” I enjoy music across genres. Thanks to past work environments and their influence, I was exposed to lots of classic rock and kayōkyoku (Japanese popular songs), which may have broadened the scope of what I love. At RAG MUSIC, I currently focus on K-pop and J-pop. I strive to edit with a feel for the scene and an eye for hit potential.

Korean dramas have grown in popularity and become widely beloved.

Each new release creates a buzz!

Titles like Crash Landing on You, Itaewon Class, and Extraordinary Attorney Woo have taken Netflix by storm.

Even those who don’t usually engage with K-culture have likely found themselves hooked.

In this article, we introduce not only memorable scenes from these dramas but also filming locations that captivate with their unique atmosphere and beautiful scenery.

Be sure to visit them when you travel to Korea!
