Locations
Meaningful, not yet on any map. For a place like a filming location or a training ground, we publish the neighbourhood and the walk, not the street address: somewhere that has stayed unremarkable for a decade shouldn't become a stop on an itinerary because of four seconds of screen time. The exception is a place that already wants to be found, like a working restaurant. There, we print the address and drop a pin.

0 of 3 locations carry coordinates in their frontmatter, at
district precision. The interactive Mapbox layer is deliberately not built yet: no pin
goes live until magazine-legal-checker signs off on how precise it may be.
Dreamland 드림랜드
Not a filming location: the actor's other job. A one-man noodle counter in Seoul that closes whenever Park Seong-il is on a set, and that was named Dreamland years before this magazine ever borrowed the same word as its own working title.
Korea National University of Arts 한국예술종합학교
The campus, not a set: the state arts conservatory an actor enrolled in in her late twenties, after four years in an office job, to start over.
Seoul Institute of the Arts 서울예술대학교
A campus, not a set: the Ansan film program a working character actor trained in, offered here because the film discussed elsewhere in this issue would not give up an actual filming location.
