Tapgol Park

I liked visiting Tapgol Park and found it to be a nice place of solace in the middle of the busy city. It is a relatively big park and often used by locals as a place to rest. I also found the historical parts of the park interesting and really appreciated that they had been preserved where they were and not moved elsewhere. If in the area, I would recommend stopping by here.

Park in the middle of City. Historical site of former city statue displayed here. The place has an old vibe alongside this park.

I happened to stumble upon this place by chance, only to realize it was actually the filming location for one of the iconic scenes in Squid Game 2! The atmosphere is calm and peaceful, making it a nice spot for a stroll, though the park itself is fairly small.

The place where Gong Yoo stomped on the pieces of bread is currently being renovated. Nice place to just relax and feed the pigeons.

Accidentally stumbled upon this place but it turned out to be the shooting spot for one of the iconic scenes in Squid Games 2! Peaceful atmosphere for a stroll. But it's a pretty small park.

I walked past this park and found it oddly familiar, so I decided to look it up. Little did I know, it was the filming location for a notable Squid Game Season 2 scene where Gong Yoo offered people living on the streets a choice between food or a lottery ticket. The park was peaceful and well-maintained. There was a large crowd of elderly folks strolling around and relaxing. I was also amazed by the beautiful pagoda at the end of the park—it seems to be a historical structure. Cool place to check out!

Be careful when you're here! This is a beautiful park which commemorates the Korean independence movement. The vibe is nice and chill, people chatting or playing chess. A ridiculously handsome man came up to me and asked me to pick between a bun and lottery ticket. Being a betting guy I picked the lottery ticket instead. Although disappointed, the ridiculously handsome guy gave me that delicious salt bun you see in that picture. He then asked me to visit his house next time to play a fun game of Russian Roulette. I declined because I was with my wife then. He did leave me a calling card with geometric shapes and phone number. Such a nice man. Although I did saw him stomp on the buns on the way out. He must be stressed from work. That or those buns must be expired or something. Such civic-mindedness to flatten your trash first before disposing them.

Had a nice stroll at the neighborhood when I spotted this. Few to no people by the time I was there.
