As you enter Sunshine Studio, on the right, there is a recreated cemetery of patriots from the independence movement during the Japanese occupation.
This location was featured in the popular drama 'Goodbye, Mr. Sunshine', which not only entertained viewers but also conveyed a sense of patriotism.
The Glory Hotel, a gathering place for intellectuals during the late Joseon period, is now a café called 'Gabae'.
The interior of Glory Hotel is designed to resemble a hotel from the late Joseon era, providing a nostalgic atmosphere for memorable photos.
The first floor features a screening room for 'Goodbye, Mr. Sunshine', while the second floor has a café for enjoying a cup of tea.
The Sunshine Studio building is not just a set; it is a permanent structure built for filming.
Originally established as a filming set for 'Goodbye, Mr. Sunshine', this street now serves as a lasting attraction.
During the first weekend of May, many visitors come as families to create memories while exploring the drama set.
The alley recreates the Japanese residential area that once existed in Hanseong.
As you explore Sunshine Studio, you can take a moment to enjoy the view, feeling like the protagonist of a drama.
The street features tram tracks, reminiscent of Jongno Street in Hanseong.
It feels as if a tram might pass by at any moment.
The stone bridge is a significant site where many tragic events occurred during the Japanese occupation, as depicted in 'Goodbye, Mr. Sunshine'.
The studio also recreates Japanese-style buildings, including a bar operated by one of the main characters.
The Hanseong Electric Company, constructed with red bricks during the late Joseon era, is also recreated here, marking Korea's first electric company.
The first floor has exhibitions and a souvenir shop, while the second floor displays stories and large photos from 'Goodbye, Mr. Sunshine'.
The first tram in Korea, known as 'Hanseong Tram', which carried the romantic stories of the main characters, is also on display.
Many tourists were taking photos on the tram.
I remember riding trams from Donam-dong to Yongsan during my childhood in Seoul, which operated until the late 1960s.
At Sunshine Studio, I capture a family tourist filming their father as he walks through the recreated Hanseong street, feeling like a star.
This street recreates the Bell Pavilion and Jongno shopping area from the enlightenment period.
Families are enjoying a spring outing together.
The traditional Korean house, or Hanok, representing the heroine's home in 'Goodbye, Mr. Sunshine', showcases beautiful architecture.
The area recreates the living environment of Japanese residents who came to Korea during the late Joseon period, featuring Japanese-style bars and restaurants.
Sunshine Studio, famous as a filming location for 'Goodbye, Mr. Sunshine', is the first publicly-private partnership theme park built in the country.
It captures the scenery of Hanseong during the Great Empire era of the 1900s.
Sunshine Studio is a representative tourist destination in Nonsan, where various movies, dramas, entertainment shows, and commercials are filmed.
A perfect recommendation for family outings in May!
