Exploring Filming Locations of 'Pogsak Sogassda' in Jeju
Actual locations verified by Jeju Tourism Organization and Korea Tourism Organization
The Netflix series 'Pogsak Sogassda' connects the long history of Jeju's people with the actual landscapes of the sea, villages, government offices, and volcanic cones. This collection selects five places in Jeju confirmed as filming locations through public materials, including those from Jeju Tourism Organization and Korea Tourism Organization.
Not all filming spots can be visited in the same way. The Jeju Mok Government Office and Seongsan Ilchulbong are cultural and natural heritage sites with viewing regulations, Seongeup Folk Village is a livable area for residents, and Hallim Port is an active harbor where fishing and vessel operations continue.
While specific scenes are identified from certain spots, where only filming facts are stated in institutional materials, no scene estimates have been made. Please check official announcements for information on weather, trail restrictions, beach openings, and cultural events right before your visit.
Jeju Mok Gwan-A
Jeju Mok Government Office
Scene in the Drama
This is the main filming spot officially designated by Jeju Tourism Organization. A related K-drama experience program was also held here.
Story of the Real Place
This is a historical site restored to represent the center of Jeju's administration during the Joseon Dynasty, showcasing a long history of Jeju City in conjunction with Gwandukjeong Pavilion.
Screen and Reality
While the drama compresses certain sections of the Jeju Mok Government Office with a focus on characters, the actual site is much larger and continues to serve its original functions. Decorations or boundaries may not be present during your visit, so examining the architecture, streets, and surrounding pathways will help you understand the differences from the screen.
Visiting Information
The registered location is 25 Gwanduk-ro, Jeju City, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. It is a paid cultural heritage site that can be visited along with Gwandukjeong Pavilion. Check the official guidance for visiting hours and closed days. Since information like operating hours, admission fees, reservations, and transportation can change, it's safe to verify with the facility or local official channels on the day of your visit.
When Visiting
Refer to the official guidance for ticketing, reservations, and areas where filming is allowed. Do not enter areas that are restricted due to ongoing filming or events.
Gimnyeong Beach
Scene in the Drama
This is the beach in eastern Jeju officially designated as a main filming spot by Jeju Tourism Organization.
Story of the Real Place
This eastern beach features bright sand, shallow turquoise waters, and contrasts with black basalt rock, significantly influenced by the wind.
Screen and Reality
The light, water surface, mountain range, and coastline captured on the screen are greatly affected by the time of filming, the season, and the weather. Since you cannot guarantee the same scenery at Gimnyeong Beach, it's better to prioritize the current weather and natural protection rules over replicating scenes.
Visiting Information
The registered location is 7-6 Haemajihaean-ro, Gujwa-eup, Jeju City, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. There may not be safety personnel outside the beach opening period. Always check the wind and wave conditions and adhere to the beach safety lines. As with operating hours, admission fees, reservations, and transportation, checking with the facility or local official channels on the day of your visit is wise.
When Visiting
Check for bad weather and trail restrictions, and do not stray from designated paths. Always prioritize safety over photography near the coast, cliffs, and wildlife.

Story of the Real Place
This is a national folk cultural heritage site that retains the structure of the ancient village of Jeongui-hyeon and features traditional Jeju houses and stone walls, serving as a living space for residents.
Screen and Reality
While the drama compresses some sections of the Seongeup Folk Village with a focus on characters, the actual site is larger and continues its original function. Since decorations or boundaries may not remain during filming, examining the architecture, streets, and surrounding pathways will facilitate understanding the differences between screen and reality.

Seongsan Ilchulbong
Scene in the Drama
This is a representative volcanic terrain in Jeju indicated as a filming location by both Korea Tourism Organization and Jeju Tourism Organization.
Story of the Real Place
Formed by volcanic eruption, this tuff cone features both a peak crater and coastal views and is part of a UNESCO World Natural Heritage area.
Screen and Reality
While the official documents confirm participation of Seongsan Ilchulbong in filming, they do not specify the details of all scenes. Therefore, instead of assuming that specific props or exact camera positions remain, it's more accurate to compare based on the actual flow and atmosphere of the space.
Visiting Information
The registered location is 78 Seongsan-ri, Seongsan-eup, Seogwipo City, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. The trail to the summit is a paid section and may be restricted due to weather. Verify operating hours and visitation on the day of the visit. Information such as operating hours, admission fees, reservations, and transportation can change, so it's wise to check with the facility or local official channels on the day of your visit.
When Visiting
Check for bad weather and trail restrictions, and do not stray from designated paths. Always prioritize safety over photography near the coast, cliffs, and wildlife.
Hanlim Port
Hallim Port
Scene in the Drama
This port appears in episode 14 when Ae-soon and Gwan-sik greet their son Eun-myeong, who returns on a deep-sea fishing boat.
Story of the Real Place
This is an actual harbor where passenger and fishing activities continue in western Jeju, featuring landscapes of both tourist coasts and working ports.
Screen and Reality
While the drama focuses on certain sections of Hallim Port with characters, the actual site is vast and continues its original function. As decorations or boundaries may not persist during filming, examining the architecture, streets, and surrounding pathways will help you comprehend differences between screen and reality.
Visiting Information
The registered location is 192 Hallimhaean-ro, Hallim-eup, Jeju City, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province. It is both a tourist destination and an operational fishing port. Stay out of work areas and mooring facilities and do not obstruct port traffic.

When Visiting
Follow site instructions and directions from the operators and do not enter restricted areas for filming. Be considerate of the experiences and portrait rights of other users.

The Jeju Mok Government Office in the old town of Jeju City, Hallim Port in the west, and the eastern areas of Gimnyeong and Seongsan, as well as Seongeup in the southeast, are all quite distant from each other. Instead of trying to visit all these locations at once, splitting them by region will lessen travel burden and allow you to appreciate each space at a leisurely pace.
By seeking the scenes from the series, while also exploring the history of the government office, the cultural lifestyle of the village, and the roles of volcanic terrain and actual harbors, you can understand Jeju as the foundation of the story rather than just a backdrop.
By the coast, prioritize the wind and waves. In volcanic cones, observe trail restrictions, and do not enter residential areas or operational zones of the harbor. It’s also wise to be open to the fact that decorations or compositions present during filming may differ from what you see now.
