Korea's first drama set turned official theme park: the 1900s Hanseong built for this show still stands in Nonsan, streetcar and all — costume rental included.

1Sunshine Studio (Sunshine Land), Nonsan

The purpose-built 1900s Hanseong — Glory Hotel, the French bakery, the streetcar and the main street where most of Eugene and Ae-shin's story unfolds. Preserved and opened as a drama theme park.

Address: 90 Bonghwang-ro, Yeonmu-eup, Nonsan-si, Chungcheongnam-do
Getting there: KTX from Yongsan to Nonsan (about 1h20m), then a 20-minute taxi.

💡 10:00–18:00, closed Thursdays, ₩10,000 — rent a 1900s Western costume or hanbok on site; the sets are built for exactly those photos.

2Manhyujeong Pavilion, Andong

The Joseon pavilion and stone-slab stream bridge of the iconic 'Love… me?' gun-lesson and hand-holding scenes.

Address: Mukgye-ri, Gilan-myeon, Andong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do
Getting there: KTX-Eum from Cheongnyangni to Andong (about 2 hours), then a 30-minute taxi — local buses are rare.

💡 Privately owned (a small viewing fee may be collected) and it survived the 2025 Andong wildfires. Drones are restricted.

3Gyemyeong Hanhakchon, Daegu

The hanok compound that played Mokhwa Hakdang — the English school where Ae-shin studies — and her family home.

Address: Keimyung University Seongseo Campus, 1095 Dalgubeol-daero, Dalseo-gu, Daegu
Getting there: Daegu Metro Line 2 to Keimyung University Station, short walk into campus.

💡 Free to enter on the open campus — weekday daytimes are easiest.

4Hapcheon Image Theme Park

Korea's largest period-drama backlot, used for the episode-22 Tokyo street sequences.

Address: 757 Hapcheonhosu-ro, Yongju-myeon, Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do
Getting there: Intercity bus from Daegu Seobu Terminal to Hapcheon (about 1.5 hours), then a 10-minute local bus or taxi.

📍 Google Maps 🗺 Naver Map

💡 A working public theme park with costume rental — UNESCO-listed Haeinsa Temple is nearby for a full Hapcheon day.

5Cheoneunsa Temple, Jirisan

The temple Ae-shin visits, where her parents' remains are enshrined.

Address: 209 Nogodan-ro, Gwangui-myeon, Gurye-gun, Jeollanam-do
Getting there: Jeolla Line train to Guryegu Station, then a 20–25 minute bus or taxi toward Jirisan.

💡 Temple admission fees were abolished nationwide in 2023, so entry is free — add the Cheoneunsa suspension walkway next door.

The set that refused to die

Most drama sets are struck after the finale; Mr. Sunshine’s Hanseong was instead handed to the public as Korea’s first public-private drama theme park. That makes this the one classic sageuk where you can walk the actual streets from the show rather than a similar-looking palace — and why Sunshine Studio anchors any itinerary built around this drama.

Routing honestly

These five locations span four provinces; nobody should chain them in one trip. Realistic units: Nonsan as a Seoul day trip (KTX), Andong + Hapcheon as a Gyeongsang overnight (both pair with UNESCO sites), and Cheoneunsa folded into a Jirisan/Jeolla itinerary.
