Korean dramas are watched by people all around the world. They can be so addicting! If you are visiting Korea and really want to get a glimpse of one being filmed we recommend going to Sangam DMC in Seoul. This is where all the big networks are and they often use the surrounding area for filming. Scenes that are supposed to be set in the evening are often filmed at 2am on the empty streets. But we’ve seen plenty of scenes filmed around 10 or 11pm. Many car scenes are filmed at night, but we caught one being filmed during the middle of the day. Because Korean dramas are filmed so quickly and the show starts being shown on TV before the filming is even finished, you may actually catch one you are currently watching being filmed.

On the weekend Chloe and I went to the iKON concert! Many people would have watched on the V app live as well, but the professional filming doesn’t always capture what it feels like to be actually at the concert. It was seriously exhilarating. There was such a positive feeling everywhere and it was an amazing concert. So some of you might be wondering who iKON is. Well you probably know that I’m a huge BIGBANG fan, who are probably the most popular and well known Kpop group. iKON is from the same entertainment agency and have only just debuted. So how can such a new group fill out a stadium with their first concert? Well iKON have been in the public eye for 2 years. First in the TV show WIN: Who is Next where they were pitted against other trainees in YG Entertainment. They actually lost and the winning team went on to debut as the group WINNER. They were then put through the stress of another elimination TV show called Mix and Match where 3 new members were added but they all had to prove they were good enough to be in the group as 2 members didn’t make the cut. These TV shows were immensely popular in Korea and a strategy of the entertainment company to gain fans before they even debut. Two members B.I. and Bobby competed in the Hip Hop elimination TV show Show Me the Money and Bobby went on to win (amazing feat for an ‘idol rapper’). So it may seem like I’ve suddenly started liking a new group, I’ve actually been following them for years, which is why it was so great to go to the debut concert. Chloe and I filmed another video about going to concerts in Korea with some more logistical info, so stay tuned for that later.
Okay the next thing I’m going to write is for international iKON fans:
LINE Webtoon has changed the upload time for webtoons, so my webtoon goes up a little bit earlier now. 1pm Korean time on Tuesday, rather than 11pm.
CLICK TO READ THE WEBTOON HERE! (But warning if you are a bit squeamish).

LINE Webtoon is one of the only platforms that supports and pays artists, support the platform that supports the artists.
We’ve been in Seoul since last week and have been pretty busy, so haven’t been able to upload much. BUT we are filming a lot of stuff while here.
Also while here I had some hospital visits and filmed this quick video about restaurants in Korean hospitals.
Not all Korean hospitals are like this, but they are definitely different to Australian ones.
