Cheongha Gongjin Market
경상북도 포항시 북구 청하면 청하로200번길 6
The Gongjin market of 'Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha' is this five-day market in Cheongha. The shop signs were swapped for the shoot and simply left in place, so the drama's storefront names still hang in the alleys. Time your visit to a market day and you see the set and the working market at once.
Wolpo Beach
경상북도 포항시 북구 청하면 해안로2308번길
The real beach behind the show's Gongjin. This is the water Du-sik surfed on his days off, and on weekends people still turn up here with boards. The sand is wide and the waves gentle, so it rarely feels crowded; it is five minutes by car from the market, which puts both of the drama's settings in one short hop.
