Moon Dong-eun survived years of violence at the hands of her high school classmates, then spent the next decade and a half preparing to face them again. She becomes a teacher, takes the class that holds her tormentor's child, and works through the order in which each of them will fall. Written by Kim Eun-sook and directed by Ahn Gil-ho, the 16 episode series began streaming on Netflix on December 30, 2022.
The Sodol breakwater does not belong to this drama alone. Within walking distance stand the Jumunjin groyne from Goblin and the bus stop from a BTS music video, and in 2026 the city of Gangneung packaged the three as one route. The rest of the show splits between Incheon and Sejong. Incheon holds Cheongna Lake Park, where Ha Do-yeong and Joo Yeo-jeong sit down over a game of baduk, and Paradise City, which the Korea Tourism Organization folded into the same course. In Sejong the lake park and the arboretum car park sit close together around Central Park, an easy half day on foot. Gangneung is worth a day of its own.

The final episode's beer under the red lighthouse, shared by Moon Dong-eun and Joo Yeo-jeong, was filmed here. This is the breakwater running out from Sodol Port in Jumunjin, Gangneung, described by the Gangwon Domin Ilbo as a spot where the red lighthouse gains its atmosphere on a snowy night. Attached to a working fishing harbor, it has no entrance fee and no closing hour. The Jumunjin groyne from Goblin and the bus stop from a BTS music video are both within walking distance, and in 2026 Gangneung introduced the three as a single route. On windy days it is safer to stay back from the far end.

The game of baduk where Ha Do-yeong and Joo Yeo-jeong first meet, and the later game across which Dong-eun quietly admits where her life stands, were shot here. Cheongna Lake Park sits in the middle of Cheongna International City in Incheon, and the filming spot is the baduk plaza next to the Cheongnaru pavilion. Incheon's official tourism portal lists it as a Glory location, which makes the exact place easy to pin down inside the park. There is no fence and no ticket booth, and the level path around the lake makes the walk to the plaza a short one.

The Korea Tourism Organization lists this resort complex, alongside Cheongna Lake Park, on its Glory route through Incheon. It stands on Yeongjong Island beside Incheon Airport, gathering a hotel, a casino, an art museum and a club on one site, with large contemporary artworks set through the lobby and the grounds. The resort is open for business, so the grounds can be walked without a room booking. Sitting next to the airport, it slots into a first or last day with little effort.

The lakeside conversations between characters were shot here. Sejong City includes the park in the Glory location guide on its official blog. Built as the largest artificial lake park in the country, it carries a stage floating out on the water. The park is open ground with no gate, and the loop path around the lake stays flat. Central Park and the Sejong National Arboretum adjoin it, so the three can be walked in sequence.

Characters gather in a car park lined with solar canopies. Sejong City's official blog points to the spot, which in daily life is the parking area of the Sejong National Arboretum. The arboretum is a national one built inside the city, with a four season greenhouse and a Korean traditional garden, and it runs on into Central Park and Sejong Lake Park. The striped shade under the canopies reads most clearly around midday, when the sun is high.
