tvN’s “Goblin” (도깨비) is coming to end and let’s face it, we’re already suffering from major K-Drama withdrawal symptoms. So we thought that it would be great to compile a list of the television show’s filming spots for all you wanderlusters and K-Drama fans.

The drama features many scenic and picturesque locations which are located all around South Korea (mostly Seoul and Incheon). From Kim Shin house to Sunny’s BBQ Olive Chicken Cafe, here are 7 real-life landmarks in South Korea that every K-Drama fan should visit:

1. Jumunjin Beach @ Gangwon-do

In the first episode of “Goblin”, Ji Eun Tak (played by Kim Go Eun) accidentally summoned Kim Shin aka the Goblin (played by Gong Yoo) by blowing out the candles of her birthday cake at Jumunjin Beach. The beach is known for being a great place for family outing due to its shallow water.

  • Address: 81-32 Gyohang-ri, Jumunjin-eup, Gangneung, Gangwon-do, South Korea

2. Uhnyeongung Western House @ Seoul

Uhnyeongung Western House (literal translation) was only used to shoot the exterior of the Goblin’s white mansion. Located in Jongno-gu, Seoul, the mansion is also part of Deoksung Women’s University.
