Venture through Andong, the main location of the dramas.

From a 64 meter-high cliff, countless sparks fly towards you along the ropes.
On the river below, floating lanterns drift gently, and with shouts of “Nakhwa-ya!”, large fireworks cascade down like a waterfall.
The Korean firework festival Seonyu Julbulnori serves as a grand purification ritual capturing the wishes of those gathered.
Ko San-young, who chose to live not for anyone else but herself, smiles brightly even amidst dire circumstances.
It's a place where hopes and wishes shine like stars.

Manhyujeong Pavilion

At Manhyujeong Pavilion, where Go Ae-shin and Eugene Choi decide to pursue their love, a wooden bridge stretching across a stream creates a striking impression.
The surrounding landscape, reminiscent of Joseon-era beauty, and their precarious love resemble the experience of walking on a dangerous wooden bridge.

Gosanjeong Pavillion

While the love between Go Ae-shin and Eugene Choi was sweet, it was far from simple.
From meeting by chance to rowing a boat together, holding hands while fishing, and finally realizing their social status disparities on a frozen river, the Nakdong River and Gosanjeong were ever-present beside them.
Mesmerizing view of the Cheongnyangsan Mountain cliff and the quaint pavilion will make one forget about the complicated reality.
Even without the taverns and ferry docks seen in the drama, it feels as though you can hear Ae-shin and Eugene's conversations.
To reach Gosanjeong Pavillion, you must cross a bridge instead of taking the ferry.
