In the popular drama, a number of simple and relaxing places around Seoul were frequently featured as filming locations. From a comic book cafe popular as a date-spot, to well known eateries, here are some of the places featured in “Lucky Romance.”

Additionally, this cozy cafe has spaces for both sitting and lying down, making it the perfect spot for relaxation and rest. The cafe serves food, drinks, and even dessert, making it an all-in-one spot to eat, drink, relax, and enjoy.

The building that served as Bo Nee's house in "Lucky Romance" is located near the Wausan Children's Park in the Hongdae area. The house is located between narrow stairways and alleys and can be recognized by its run-down front gate. A cafe is located on the first floor so visitors can enjoy a refreshing drink or coffee. Wausan Children's Park is popular with the neighborhood's children and many of them play and exercise at the park. You can also trek up to the nearby Wausan Observatory to enjoy views of the city.
TIP
Come out from the rear entrance of Hongik University (Wausan-ro 94, Mapo-gu, Seoul). Follow the descending staircase on the right and you will see the park. From across the way, you will see the building that was used as Shim Bo Nee’s house in the drama.
Course 3 Fall in Love with Chinese-Korean Food
Seoryong (West Dragon)
Among the restaurants that appeared in “Lucky Romance,” Seoryong was the most eye-catching. The restaurant serves Chinese-Korean and strives to increase the healthiness of their dishes by using a minimum of salt and artificial flavorings. Their most well-known dishes, jajangmyeon (noodles with black soybean sauce), fried rice, and tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork), are all high-quality and full of flavor. Seoryong is located in the broadcasting mecca of Sangam-dong, known for being home to most of Korea's broadcasting stations. The well-respected restaurant is popular with broadcasting station employees. Regardless of how many people are in your party, there will be plenty of space for everyone at Seoryong with its spacious rooms and banquet tables. There are curtains and blinds that can be utilized to provide privacy while dining.
