Introduction: Your Fan Pilgrimage Starts Now
Welcome, all “K-POP DEMON HUNTERS” fans!
Have you ever watched the show and thought, “Hey, that place looks familiar”?
Well, you were right.
Many of the iconic scenes are set in real locations across Seoul.
This guide will take you on a journey through the city, following in the footsteps of Huntrix and the Lion Boys for the ultimate Seoul anime tour.
1. Huntrix’s Epic Stage: Seoul Olympic Stadium
Remember the breathtaking “How It’s Done” performance by Huntrix in the early episodes?
That massive concert venue is none other than the Seoul Olympic Stadium.
As a real-life holy ground for K-Pop concerts, you can almost feel the energy and roar of the crowd just by standing outside.
It’s one of the most iconic K-POP DEMON HUNTERS locations to kick off your tour.
2. “Golden” on Display: Samseong Station COEX Screen
The dazzling 3D screening of Huntrix’s “Golden” music video happens on a very real, and very famous, screen.
This is the giant 3D wave screen at COEX Artium, right outside Samseong Station.
It’s a symbol of Seoul’s modern, high-tech vibe and a must-see spot for any visitor.
Watching the incredible public art on the COEX 3D screen will make you feel like you’re right there in the music video.
3. Authentic Korean Bites: The Gukbap Scene
One of the most relatable scenes is when the Huntrix members gather for a meal of gukbap (hot soup with rice).
The show even perfectly captured the classic Korean habit of placing spoons and chopsticks on a folded napkin.
While there isn’t one specific restaurant, you can find delicious Korean Gukbap shops all over Seoul to replicate this comforting moment.
Pro-Tip: Trying gukbap is a great way to experience authentic, everyday Korean food.
It’s delicious, affordable, and perfect for refueling during your tour!
4. Myeongdong: Street Food & Performances
The lively street where the Lion Boys performed “Soda Pop” is the famous Myeongdong Shopping Street.
This area is a paradise for tourists, packed with shops, and of course, amazing street food.
Remember when Jinwoo kindly added mustard to a fan’s Gamja Hotdog (potato-crusted hot dog)?
You can find that and so much more right here!

5. The View from the Top: Seoul Sky Observatory
The stunning day and night views from Huntrix’s dorm look uncannily like the panorama from Seoul Sky.
Located on the top floors of the Lotte World Tower, it’s the highest observation deck in Korea.
Seeing the entire city spread out below you is an unforgettable experience that will connect you directly to the world of Huntrix locations.
6. A Moment of Peace: Bukchon Hanok Village
The quiet, heartfelt conversation between Lumi and Jinwoo on a traditional rooftop happened in a place just like Bukchon Hanok Village.
This is also where the beautiful “Free” scene was set.
As you walk through the alleys, you’ll also spot traditional clinics, reminiscent of the ‘Han Clinic’ Lumi visited for her voice.
It’s a peaceful escape into old Seoul. For more ideas on traditional Korean experiences, you can read more about Korean cultural sites.
