Wolmi Zzang Land (Wolmi Theme Park) (월미짱랜드)
81 Wolmimunhwa-ro, Jung-gu, Incheon
Wolmi Zzang Land (Wolmi Theme Park) is located on Wolmido Island in Incheon. Spanning 13,200 square meters, it features various amusement rides including a ferris wheel, swing boat, and go-karts. One of its highlights is the tagada ride, where riders sit on circular seats that move in all directions to the beat of music while a DJ adds to the excitement. Visitors can also enjoy panoramic views of Songdo Town, the Incheon Bridge, and Yeongjongdaegyo Bridge from the ferris wheel.
Wolmido Island (월미도)
36 Wolmimunhwa-ro, Jung-gu, Incheon
Wolmido Island has very few historical records, despite being the location of a temporary palace, built in 1653 during the reign of King Hyojong. The palace was built on the eastern side of the island, but it is impossible to find traces of it now. From the late 1920s until the '30s, the island was transformed into a resort, a very popular destination at the time. Wolmi Culture Street opened in July 1989 and helped improve the area's fame. On weekends and holidays, people flock to Wolmido Island to enjoy coffee and fresh seafood at the cafes and restaurants overlooking the sea. Despite being 1 kilometer off the coast, Wolmido is no longer an island, being connected to the mainland through modern construction techniques. It is now an easily accessible retreat for locals and tourists alike.
Wolmyeong Park (월명공원)
26-3, Wolmyeonggongwon 1-gil, Gunsan-si, Jeonbuk-do

The park has 12 kilometers of walking trails, as well as an observatory, sculpture park, and various monuments. From Susi Tower, which resembles a flame or wind-blown sail, people can see all of downtown Gunsan, the sea to the south of Gunsan, the mouth of the Geumgang River, and the large Janghang smelting factory. The park has well-arranged gardens and 30-year old rattan and cherry trees. A cherry blossom photo contest is held every April, when the park is covered in cherry blossoms.

Though narrow, the valley boasts a deep mountain terrain with abundant water flow. At the entrance of the valley, there are notable sites like Gangseondae Overlook, where it is said that immortals descended from heaven to enjoy the scenery, as well as the ancient Moamjeong and Deoksanjeong Pavilions.

Wondae-ri Birch Forest (Whispering Birch Forest) (원대리 자작나무 숲(속삭이는 자작나무 숲))
760 Jajangnamusup-gil, Inje-gun, Gangwon-do
Wondae-ri Birch Forest near Inje-eup is an exemplar of natural eco-tourism, established by planting 690,000 birch trees across 138 hectares from 1974 to 1995. Today, 25 hectares of this expansive area serve as a forest experience center tailored for children. Two main trails are available: the Wonjeong Forest Trail, with an 80-minute walking time, and the shorter Wondae Forest Trail, taking about an hour to traverse. The trails lead hikers through a dense forest of birch trees, some over two decades old, whose stark white trunks reach skyward, creating an ethereal atmosphere. This forest not only offers a journey through its unique ecosystem but also provides aesthetic pleasure and educational opportunities, securing its status as a distinguished eco-tourism site in Inje-gun. In winter, the snow-blanketed landscape alongside the stark white birches creates a picturesque tableau, making it a favored spot for photography. For families, especially those with children, the forest is a treasure trove of educational fun, with activities available at the Children’s Forest Experience Center, including Forest Classroom and Indian House, fostering a connection with nature. Note: Some areas may close temporarily to prevent forest fires and preserve the ecosystem, so please check availability before visiting. ◎ Travel information to meet Hallyu’s charm This location was the romantic date spot for Jin-ah (played by Son Ye-jin) and Joon-hee (played by Jung Hae-in) in the TV series "Something in the Rain."

Both scenes, filmed in winter, highlighted the stunning beauty of the snow-covered landscape.
