K-Pop Destinations: "Emergency Couple"

If the antics of hospital interns Choi Jin Hyuk and Song Ji Hyo have amused you in the comedy "Emergency Couple", a visit to the filming locations may be just what the doctor ordered for your next trip to Seoul.

And two of those locations involve eating and drinking. In a recent episode of "Emergency Couple", Choi Jin Hyuk's mother tricks him into meeting her at a Thai restaurant, which is really called Saint Augustin Gyeongbokgung. She wants him to meet up with the girl she wants him to marry. When he gets there the well-connected Ah Reum, played by Clara, shows up and he knows he has been tricked. Things become tense but your meal there doesn't have to be tense. In fact, it can be delicious.

Saint Augustin Gyeongbokgung serves tasty Thai, Vietnamese and Asian fusion cuisine. The restaurant is located at 19 Junghak Dong, Jongno-gu. For more information, you can call 02 737-7108 or visit https://www.augustin.co.kr/.

Should you want to go out for a drink after your delicious dinner, you can stop by Katakomb Underground City, a club that appears in this drama and as a watering hole for Jung Yong Hwa in the drama "Future's Choice".

That's where Song Ji Hyo drinks with her friends in the very first episode. She is so upset at running into her ex Choi Jin Hyuk that she gets way too drunk and ultimately winds up in the very emergency room that she is supposed to work in. But you don't have to overdo it. You can simply enjoy the bar's colorful interior with its colored lights, black leather booths and beading. Katakomb Underground City is located at Seogyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. You can take Subway Line 6 to Hapjeong Station.
