The original Netflix series The Glory tells the story of Moon Dong-eun, a victim of school violence, who seeks out each of the perpetrators and exacts a brutal revenge. It serves as a stark reminder of the seriousness of school bullying and also offers a message of hope and consolation to crime victims. In contrast, the drama Doctor Cha portrays revenge through brilliant personal growth, even when one’s family and life betray them. As she re-enters the path of medicine she dreamed of as a child, she begins a revenge play against life, using her growth as a weapon. But where did the beautiful revenge acts of Moon Dong-eun in The Glory and Jeong-suk in Doctor Cha take place?
Mung Hit Cafe (Meditation Cafe) on Ganghwado Island in Incheon served as the backdrop for Lee Sa-ra’s workspace in The Glory. It’s the terrace where Yeon-jin’s close trio of friends often met and chatted.It’s a special place nestled in the mountains where you can enjoy stunning natural views and have indoor relaxation times and moments of leisure with activities such as reading. If you want to clear your cluttered mind, why not visit this place?
To get close to Yeon-jin’s husband, Ha Do-young, Dong-eun learns how to play Baduk (a board game where the player who occupies the most space using black and white stones wins) Ha Doyoung is a man so passionate about Baduk that he frequents its origins. He even went so far as to create a Baduk board plaza in the middle of a park, which is referred to as Semyeong’s Baduk Park in the drama. This location is actually Cheongna Lake Park in Incheon, a park renowned for its night views. The Baduk board used in the drama is also in the park. If you want to relive the emotions of The Glory, why not visit?
Cha Jeong-suk chooses a different path. It’s a “kind revenge” acted upon with a good heart instead of resentment. She inspects the health of the villagers she visits for medical volunteer work, interacts with them, and grows as an individual. Deokwoo Experience Village offers a beautiful natural setting as a given, but also provides fishing, farming experiences, rice cake making, and craft workshops. It’s one of the renowned “Twelve Winter Sceneries of Jeongseon” in Gangwon Province.
In episode 10 of Doctor Cha, the resolute Jung-suk, who never loses her kind disposition amidst countless adversities, is depicted as an angel, while her husband In-ho, who betrayed his dedicated wife, is portrayed as a devil. This interesting direction is credited to the angel and devil benches on the walkway of Deokpyeong Eco-Service Area. Aside from offering a variety of food and souvenirs typical of Korean rest stops, this rest area also has a garden where you can admire flowers, trees, and various art sculptures. If you’re curious about the unique Korean rest areas, why not drop by Deokpyeong Eco-Service Area?
