  1. Hi Ms. Karla, thanks for sharing this! Me and my sister wanted will be visiting Korea this Coming June 2019. I would like to ask, do the places listed above are somewhat near to each other and can be visited all within one day? Just want to maximize our trip. Thank you in advance! 🙂

    1. Hi! Most of them are located near Anguk Station. You may skip the Yongdap Station because it’s quite far. For the BBQ Place, just visit the second shop. It’s nearer.

  2. I’m not sure if this case only happened to me but I think entering the university is now forbidden. Last December 2017, we went there on a Sunday, and we were only able to enter the Unhyeongung Palace. Other passage way going to the Goblin’s house are closed so we can’t take a picture with the house upclose.

  3. Hi Karla. Annyeong!

    Can you give me instructions on how to get to Sunny’s 2nd restaurant? Kamsahamnida in advance.

  4. hai ,
    I would like to ask, when you went to Unhyeongung Yanggwan at Deoksung Women’s University at that time are you allowed to go inside by campus security there?
    because when I went there last April I was not allowed into his campus by security

      1. I also went there last December 2017and we were only able to enter the Unhyeongung Palace. Other passage way going to the Goblin’s house are closed so we can’t take a picture with the house upclose. So sad.

        1. I went there last winter 2017, they really do not allow tourists to enter anymore, but if you can speak a little bit of korean, just charm your way in and tell the Ajussi that you are a ‘Filipino’ fanatic of the drama.
