In this episode, Soo takes Woo-yeon to ‘Okin Arcade” to cheer her up, and Soo keeps losing to Woo-yeon on purpose. Okin Arcade was known as “Yong Arcade” from 1988 to 2011 and was restored in 2015, and it is famous as the “last arcade in Sejong Village.” Beyond the windows are ten games from the past that were popular in the 1980-90s like “Tetris,” “Galaga,” and “Street Fighter.” The arcade is adored as a place full of memories and nostalgia for the middle-aged generation and an interesting retro-style attraction for the younger generations.

In Episode 7, Soo, who cannot take photos after hurting his hand, goes out to take photos with Woo-yeon in Mullae Arts Village. At the café where the two take refuge from the rain, Soo asks Woo-yeon to teach him calligraphy. Soo then expresses his feelings for Woo-yeon through the notebook. This scene was filmed at the wine bar “Bricks Boxx” in Mullae-dong. The dark green walls and vintage furniture of this restaurant that is popular on social media present a unique and beautiful atmosphere. The savory and soft chuck flap tail steak cooked with premium American dry-aged top blade is the restaurants main dish. The pasta with ragù sauce and wine, the truffle cream pasta, and the truffle mushroom cream pizza are also popular menu items. The wine bar also features beer, whiskey, and cocktails.

In Episode 8, Soo and Woo-yeon leave for their last photoshoot amid their mixed feelings. Soo visits the abandoned railway in Gongneung-dong, saying that he wants to take photos of a place where the abandoned is loved and where time has stopped. Hwarangdae Railway Park is a restoration of the old 400-meter Hwarangdae Station section, which was the last unattended station in Seoul, that opened in 2018. The abandoned railway was recreated into the Gyeongui Line Forest Park, and the old station building was transformed into an exhibition hall as a place of relaxation for the public. The park was also selected one of the Seoul Safe & Healing Tourist Sites of 2020. The park features a light garden made up of lit sculptures and ten courses that include the Secret Flower Garden, Light Tunnel, Musical Garden, and Milky Way Garden. Trams from the Czech Republic and Japan are also on display, turning every corner into a photo zone. Visitors can stop by the train café, Bandi Sanghoe, made from three train compartments, and buy handmade crafts and toys as souvenirs.
