In the Netflix original K-drama Doona!, a budding love story starts in the four walls of a cozy shared home, which college students call their temporary abode.
Much of the love between Bae Suzy’s Lee Doona and Yang Se Jong’s Lee Won-jun unfold among the confines of the old-fashioned brick home, serving as the main backdrop for the nine-episode drama. But while their love story might seem like textbook romance, the setting is actually as real as it gets–travelers can even book a stay in the guest house featured in the show!
What Is the Holly Hill Guest House?
Located in Gwangju, South Korea, Holly Hill Guest House is nestled in the historical and cultural village of Yangrim-dong. Western missionaries first established a modern school and hospital at the locale in the early 20th century, and remnants of its influence are still evident in the contemporary days.
Yangrim-dong Hill is also the location of the New Suma Missionary House, a 70-year-old red brick building utilized as a guest house. The Holly Hill house stands at the upper area of the village where many hollies grow in the neighborhood.
