A friendly alley with Kuk Yeonsoo’s house 
Jidong Mural Village is a neighborhood with many winding alleys where Kuk Yeonsoo lived. Murals with seven themes are painted on the 6km-long road, so just walking along the pictures is as fun as a treasure hunt. As you walk, you will see a familiar green gate next to Jidong Supermarket, which is the house of Kuk Yeonsoo in the drama. As rainbow murals often appeared on the opposite side in the drama, there are many fans who take proof shots here.
