The Moon Embracing the Sun Across Korea: 3 Spots (2 Reported)
Korean Folk Village
Gyeonggi Province's official tourism magazine says the village was used as the shooting location for The Moon Embracing the Sun. That source names no specific scene, so none is claimed here, and a second qualifying source was not found — so the stop is labeled reported.
