Itaewon Main Street & Alleys이태원
Seoul's most international quarter — the slopes, rooftop bars and neon alleys that gave Itaewon Class its underdog heartbeat. World food, vintage shops and nightlife pack the streets fanning off the main road.
Appears in
“The main drag and side alleys where DanBam's story unfolds — especially cinematic after dark, during the Halloween-free quieter seasons.”
Recreate the shot: The world-food street's neon stacking is the show's identity shot — stand mid-slope at dusk when signs light against the last blue sky. The quiet side alleys give you DanBam's texture without the crowds.
There now: Itaewon's energy is fully back: weekend nights are dense, weeknights easy. The neighborhood rewards eating your way down rather than photographing your way through.

Editor's tips
