Understanding Kdrama: The Han River

What do the following scenes have in common? A marathon runner ghost chases Gong Hyo Jin in "The Master's Sun." Lee Jun Ki meets a bad guy in "Two Weeks." Jung Il Woo and Lee Chung Ah bicker in "Flower Boy Ramen Shop."

The answer: It's their location. All of these scenes take place alongside the Han River in Seoul. In fact, many modern kdramas have scenes there.

It has been said that nothing good ever happens in a kdrama scene alongside the Han River but occasionally a few fun scenes happen there too.

It's where Yoon Eun Hye and Kang Ji Hwan play in those cute duck boats in "Lie To Me." It's also the location for playful scenes between Lee Min Ho and Park Min Young in "City Hunter."
