1. Cafe Mongted - Im Sol's House This cozy cafe with its iconic arched brick entrance served as the home of the female lead, Im Sol. Located in the Haengnidan-gil area of Suwon, it now features a yellow umbrella at the entrance, just like in the drama. Don't miss their famous salt bread!
2. The Blue Door House - Ryu Sun-jae's House Right across from Cafe Mongted is the famous house with the blue door where Sun-jae lived. Please note that this is a private residence, so be respectful and quiet when taking photos outside.
3. Banghwasuryujeong & Hwahongmun Gate This is the romantic heart of the 'Sun-jae Tour'. Banghwasuryujeong is where Sun-jae taught Sol how to ride a bike, and Hwahongmun Gate is where he finally confessed his feelings. At night, the lit-up fortress walls create a magical atmosphere.
4. Hwahong Mart A nostalgic local grocery store where the characters watched a judo match together. It perfectly captures the late-2000s retro vibe that the drama is loved for.
