The scene where Na Heedo (Kim Taeri) taught Baek Iijin (Nam Joohyuk) how to be happy was filmed at Jeil High School in Jeonju. The scene where the faucet is turned upside down and turned into a fountain at the school faucet is so refreshing. The tap was made for filming, and unfortunately, it is not available now. It is forbidden to enter the school, so you should only look outside the school.

Jeonju Nambu Traditional Market opened as a regular public market in 1905 at the site of the Joseon-era Nammunbakk Market, located just outside the Southern gate to the city. Currently the market is comprised of about 800 stores with 1,200 workers selling vegetables, fruits, food, dried fish, furniture, silk goods, and general goods.

The market was revitalized with the creation of the Youth Market, located in the previously empty shops on the second floor of 6-dong. An influx of young shopkeepers and entrepreneurs has given the marketplace an exciting vibe like that found in Hongdae or Samcheong-dong.

The night market held on Fridays and Saturdays also draws in many visitors with a multitude of delicious treats, ranging from traditional dishes such as nokdujeon (mung bean pancake) to fusion treats like bibimbap served in rice paper like a spring roll.
