The iconic setting of the popular K-drama 'Itaewon Class', with K-pop connections through its OST.

The 'Itaewon Class' filming locations, particularly the iconic 'Danbam Pub' and the vibrant streets of Itaewon, became incredibly popular after the success of the K-drama. While BTS's V did not film directly at these locations, his deep connection to the drama makes them highly relevant to K-pop fans. V not only made a memorable cameo appearance in 'Itaewon Class' but also lent his soulful voice to its highly successful OST, 'Sweet Night'. This song became synonymous with the drama's emotional core, making V an integral part of its cultural phenomenon. Fans often visit the real-life locations in Itaewon, which closely resemble the drama's settings, to relive scenes and connect with the atmosphere that inspired V's music. Although the actual 'Danbam' pub might have changed, the spirit of the drama and V's musical contribution live on in the streets of Itaewon. It's a prime example of how K-pop idols' involvement in K-dramas can transform everyday locations into significant fan destinations.
