The Swiss scenes get the headlines, but CLOY's Korea locations are day-trippable from Seoul — including the spot where Se-ri's paraglider took off.
The hilltop launch site in Yeongwol where Se-ri's episode-1 paragliding flight begins — right before the tornado changes everything.
💡 Closed Mondays. Go near sunset and stay for the observatory's stargazing program (about ₩7,000).
The 200m suspension bridge in Pocheon that stood in for a North Korean gorge crossing during Se-ri and Jeong-hyeok's walk.
💡 Open roughly 09:00–18:00. Bidulginang Falls and the Hantangang Geopark trails sit right beside the bridge — an easy add-on if you have your own wheels, though the day tour above swaps them for the Swiss Village.
The jagged rocky shore on Yeongjong Island, Incheon, that doubled as the drama's North Korean seaside.
💡 Best at sunset, and it sits right beside Eulwangni Beach — an easy add-on before a flight out of Incheon.
The fried-chicken shop where Jeong-hyeok's North Korean squad discovers South Korean chimaek during the Seoul episodes.
💡 It's a regular working restaurant — go at meal time and order what the squad ate.
The episode-1 restaurant where Se-ri and Gu Seung-jun's date gets photographed by paparazzi.
💡 Reserve ahead; the weekday lunch set is the affordable way in.
The North Korean village — Jeong-hyeok’s house, the communal courtyard — was a purpose-built open set in Taean-gun that was demolished after filming. And the Switzerland scenes (Sigriswil bridge, Iseltwald lakeside) are, of course, in Switzerland; interestingly, the Hantan River Sky Bridge above is the Korean stand-in the show itself connects to the Sigriswil one.
The two Seoul spots (Ewha chicken shop, Cheongdam steakhouse) fold into any city day. Byeolmaro and the Sky Bridge are separate half-day trips in opposite directions — Yeongwol southeast, Pocheon northeast — so plan them as two different days rather than one long one. The Incheon beach works best as a send-off stop before an evening flight.
Crash Landing on You was filmed in South Korea and Switzerland — not in North Korea. Visitable Korean spots include Byeolmaro Observatory in Yeongwol (the paragliding launch), the Hantan River Sky Bridge in Pocheon (the gorge crossing), Seonnyeo Bawi beach near Incheon (the 'North Korean' shore), and two Seoul restaurants. The Swiss scenes were shot around Sigriswil and Iseltwald.
No. Despite the story, none of it was filmed in North Korea. The North Korean village — Jeong-hyeok's house and the communal courtyard — was a purpose-built open set in Taean-gun, South Korea, that was demolished after filming. The border-gorge crossing used the Hantan River Sky Bridge in Pocheon, and the 'North Korean' beach is Seonnyeo Bawi on Yeongjong Island near Incheon.
Se-ri's episode-1 paragliding launch was filmed at Byeolmaro Observatory in Yeongwol, Gangwon. It's closed on Mondays — go near sunset and you can stay for the observatory's stargazing program (about ₩7,000).
Yes, but they're in Switzerland, not Korea — chiefly the Sigriswil panorama bridge and the Iseltwald lakeside on Lake Brienz. Fittingly, the drama pairs the Sigriswil bridge with the Hantan River Sky Bridge in Pocheon, its Korean stand-in near Seoul.
The two Seoul spots (the Ewha fried-chicken shop and the Cheongdam steakhouse) fold into any city day. Byeolmaro in Yeongwol and the Sky Bridge in Pocheon are half-day trips in opposite directions; because public transport to the Sky Bridge is impractical, many visitors book a CLOY day tour from Seoul that loops Pocheon.
