About this itinerary
This route covers 5 Steel Rain filming locations plus 2 nearby spots from other K-dramas — each "Filming spot" tag names the drama.
Filming spots on this route: Yongsan History Museum, Lee Bong-chang Historical Hall, Postage Stamp Museum, Han River, POSCO Museum of Art, Walkerhill Forest Trail. We picked the ones that are easy to visit and photograph, and filled the time in between with nearby sights and places to eat.
From Incheon Airport it takes about 1 hr by the AREX airport railroad. Anything within about 20 minutes on foot, you walk.
You stay all 2 nights near Garosu-gil, Sinsa-dong and start every day from the same place — no repacking.
Day 1: Yongsan History Museum, Lee Bong-chang Historical Hall, Postage Stamp Museum, Bank of Korea Money Museum. Lunch at Waibeuru, dinner at Myeongdong Gyoja Main Branch.
Day 2: Han River, GB Gabin Art Hall, POSCO Museum of Art, My Art Museum, Walkerhill Forest Trail. Lunch at Sigol Jinji Sang, dinner at Kong Yewon.
Day 3: Dongdaemun Design Plaza, Seoul Unhyeongung. Lunch at Ikseon Jabbang. Then head back to Incheon Airport.
Popular sights are busiest on weekend afternoons — start early for a calmer visit and better photos.
Times in this plan are worked out from the distance between stops and how long you stay at each one. Feel free to drop a stop or two for a slower pace. Every stop has location and directions buttons that open the map directly.
