One of tvN's highest-rated dramas ever left a very visitable trail — including a department store you can shop in and a rail bike you can actually ride.
The exterior and gardens of the Hong family's chaebol mansion, where Hae-in and Hyun-woo live with her family.
💡 A working museum with paid admission — the mansion interiors were sets, so come for the gardens and facade.
Stands in for the Queens Department Store Hae-in runs as CEO — atrium and retail-floor scenes throughout.
💡 The 5th-floor indoor garden 'Sounds Forest' is the most recognizable backdrop — weekdays are far emptier.
The aquarium of Hyun-woo's episode-8 flashback proposal, in front of the main tank.
💡 Time your visit to a feeding show for the same lighting as the proposal scene.
The old rural station and rail bike of Hae-in and Hyun-woo's episode-13 countryside date in fictional Yongduri.
💡 Rides are about ₩25,000 and run 09:00–17:00 — book ahead on weekends; the drama made it genuinely popular.
The lavish episode-1 wedding was held at Aston House on the Walkerhill grounds above the Han River.
💡 Aston House is a private event venue — viewable from outside only — but the hotel grounds and river views are open.
The Yongduri village houses from the flashbacks were a set near Mungyeong, dismantled after filming; the mansion and department-store interiors were studio builds. Mungyeong’s rail bike is the piece of Yongduri that survives — which is why Klook now runs a dedicated day tour there.
Three of the five spots are inside Seoul and pair naturally: Seongbuk-dong’s museum sits near Gilsangsa Temple (a The Glory location), and The Hyundai Seoul is ten minutes from the Han River parks. Mungyeong is the committed fan’s day trip — bundle the rail bike with Mungyeong Saejae’s sageuk film sets if you go.
Queen of Tears was filmed mostly in and around Seoul. Key real locations are the Korean Stone Art Museum in Seongbuk-dong (the Hong family mansion), The Hyundai Seoul in Yeouido (the Queens Department Store), Aqua Planet Ilsan (the aquarium proposal), and the Mungyeong Rail Bike (the countryside date). The wedding was at Grand Walkerhill Seoul.
The exterior and gardens of the Hong family's chaebol mansion are the Korean Stone Art Museum at 66 Daesagwan-ro 13-gil, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul. It's a working museum with paid admission — the interiors were studio sets, so visit for the gardens and facade.
Yes. Hae-in's Queens Department Store is The Hyundai Seoul in Yeouido, a real mall you can shop in. The most recognizable backdrop is the 5th-floor indoor garden 'Sounds Forest' — weekdays are far less crowded.
Hyun-woo's proposal was filmed at Aqua Planet Ilsan in Goyang, Gyeonggi, in front of the main tank. Timing your visit to a feeding show gives you the same lighting as the scene.
Yes. The episode-13 countryside date was the Mungyeong Rail Bike at the old Gurang-ri Station in Mungyeong. Rides are about ₩25,000 and run 09:00–17:00 — book ahead on weekends, as the drama made it genuinely popular.
The lavish episode-1 wedding was held at Aston House on the grounds of Grand Walkerhill Seoul, above the Han River. Aston House is a private event venue viewable from outside only, but the hotel grounds and river views are open.
