About this itinerary
This route covers 1 Squid Game filming location plus 6 nearby spots from other K-dramas — each "Filming spot" tag names the drama.
Filming spots on this route: KINTEX, Gwanghwamun Gate, Bukchon Hanok Village Gamgodang Street, Constitutional Court Exhibition Hall, Seoul Unhyeongung, Deoksugung Stone Wall Path. We picked the ones that are easy to visit and photograph, and filled the time in between with nearby sights and places to eat.
From Incheon Airport it takes about 1 hr by the AREX airport railroad. Anything within about 20 minutes on foot, you walk.
You stay all 2 nights in Seoul and start every day from the same place — no repacking.
Day 1: Bon da Vinci Museum Ilsan, Hyundai Motor Studio Goyang, KINTEX, Onemount Snowpark. Lunch at Sotnaeum Ilsan Kintex Branch, dinner at Chamchi Super.
Day 2: Gwanghwamun Gate, Bukchon Hanok Village Gamgodang Street, Constitutional Court Exhibition Hall, Seoul Unhyeongung, Deoksugung Stone Wall Path. Lunch at Suin Insadong Dakhanmari, dinner at Oyang Hoe Chamchi.
Day 3: Eunpyeong Hanok Village, Seoul Arts Center Doam Hall·Doam Gallery. Lunch at Hanokjip. Then head back to Incheon Airport.
Popular sights are busiest on weekend afternoons — start early for a calmer visit and better photos.
Times in this plan are worked out from the distance between stops and how long you stay at each one. Feel free to drop a stop or two for a slower pace. Every stop has location and directions buttons that open the map directly.

QHow do I get from Incheon Airport to Seoul?
Take the AREX airport railroad — about 1 hr in total. Day 1 starts at the arrival station or terminal, and the last day ends back there. You can book tickets straight from the buttons in the itinerary.
QCan I get around Seoul without a car?
Yes. 12 legs of this itinerary are on foot, and you ride a bus or subway at most 3 times a day — mostly to and from the hotel or station. Taxis are an easy backup for any leg.
QDo I need cash in Seoul?
Most restaurants and shops take cards, including many foreign cards, but some market stalls are cash-only, so carry a little cash. For buses and subways, a T-money transit card (sold at convenience stores) is the easiest.
