The scene

VISITKOREA identifies Dwaeji Supermarket and streets in Bukahyeon-dong and Changsin-dong as filming locations. These are separate neighborhoods, not one movie set.

The story behind the place

The contrast between steep neighborhood streets and the wealthy family’s house is central to the film’s spaces. The mansion was a production set, not a house to visit on this route.

Plan your visit

The Korea Economic Daily reported on 22 May 2025 that Dwaejissal Supermarket had closed. This article preserves its film history; do not plan a shop visit. Other locations mentioned in the official route require separate access checks.
