Guardian, 939 Years of Waiting

Goblin, nine centuries between two souls

In the winter of 2016, tvN's <Goblin> turned three filming locations into pilgrimage sites before its sixteen episodes had even finished airing. The breakwater of Jumunjin, the stone-wall lane of Deoksugung, and a small bookshop in Old Quebec. The 939 years that Kim Shin had wandered were piled up for one single moment of meeting Ji Eun-tak.

Director Lee Eung-bok stated his intent — 'a drama remembered for its spaces, not just its scenes.' The camera reads a place before it reads a person. The waves of Jumunjin appear first; only then does a red scarf walk into frame.

These five sections are a guide that follows the places where the work lingered. Carry the scenes in your memory before you visit, and leave a single line for the next traveler when you return.

On the day the first snow falls, I will come to you. — Kim Shin, Episode 1

What happened behind the scenes?

01
Jumunjin breakwater · the buckwheat opening
Real shooting began at 4 a.m. in mid-November. The buckwheat petals were no CG — the props team scattered actual petals and retook the shot until the wind aligned. The fifth take made the final cut.
02
Deoksugung stone-wall lane · the reunion
A nighttime sequence shot under traffic control. To create the night glow, street lamps were dimmed and lights were placed inside the stone wall so the wall itself seemed to shine.
03
Banghwa Bridge pedestrian walk
The long take of the Goblin and Grim Reaper walking side by side was shot on a Jimmy Jib rather than a drone. Three full hours of rehearsal went into matching the actors' strides.

Where should you go?

Best Season
Late November to mid-February (closest to the snow & autumn-leaf scenes)
Transport
KTX + local public transit recommended · car or bus only needed between Gangneung and Jumunjin
DAY 1 · Seoul
09:30
Deoksugung stone-wall lane
Weekday mornings are quietest. Early November leaves give the strongest visual.
14:00
Banghwa Bridge pedestrian walk
Enter the Bogum Bridge section at the Gangseo-gu Office walkway entrance.
17:30
Incheon Grand Park, Goblin Door path
Bald cypress lane · sunset backlight matches the drama frame best.
DAY 2 · Gangneung
07:00
KTX Seoul → Gangneung (~2h)
The sunrise view from the train window is already a signature shot.
10:30
Jumunjin breakwater
Aim for the red lighthouse at the breakwater tip. February–March waves are most cinematic.
13:00
Gangneung Coffee Street
Cafe tour along Anmok Beach — favored by the crew.

How to Pose
01
Jumunjin breakwater
Wrap a red scarf, back to the lighthouse, facing the sea. No candles or lighters (safety).
02
Deoksugung stone-wall lane
Sit low so the wall fills two thirds of the frame, shoot from a low angle.

Visitor Notes
Jumunjin at dawn in February was more dramatic than the drama. Snow even fell — almost cried.
@yune_travel · 2024.02
Deoksugung stone wall is truer at dusk than at noon. The light angle is pure Episode 16.
@sung_pics · 2023.11
Incheon Grand Park's bald cypress path is empty, the air is clean — perfect for a binge-walk.
