Oreung (Five Royal Tombs of Silla)
Preview's Perfect Crown location roundup (11 May 2026) places some of the drama's romantically charged moments against the quiet landscape of the Five Royal Tombs. SayArt's Gyeongju filming coverage (25 October 2025) reports that the production filmed scenes at Oreung to depict the solitude of Prince Ian, using the site as a backdrop for royal scenes. The two sources frame the scenes differently, so the stop claims the filming itself, not one specific scene.
