The three will visit the Dokkebi Market, one of the redevelopment areas in Hannam-dong.

To begin their serious exploration of Hannam-dong, the trio heads to UN Village.

There are as many as eight embassies in this village, so security is strict.” He also reveals the reason for the high number of embassies in Hannam-dong.
Upon arriving at UN Village, Park Na-rae states, “This is a house I’ve always wanted to see. The homeowner is even more famous than a celebrity,” raising expectations for the site visit. The entrance is captivating with art pieces and stylish lighting, and the spacious living room features a grand piano, further amplifying curiosity about the homeowner.
Park Na-rae comments, “While a Han River view house is attractive, this house has a garden view that is art,” and introduces the beautiful garden visible through the large windows. The coordinators, upon discovering the barbecue zone and the red & white bar, reportedly exclaimed, “It’s so stylish!” and “I’m so jealous!”
