One of the hottest K-Dramas of 2021, "Nevertheless," recently concluded its story, much to the dismay of many fans. For some, it was a pleasant and expected ending and for others, it wasn't. "Nevertheless," tells the story of a young woman who's down on her luck when it comes to love and a man who doesn't necessarily understand the intricacies of the same.
Song Kang plays Park JaeEon and Han SoHee plays Yu NaBi in the show. Both are art majors at the HongSeo University. Most of the show is filmed at the aforementioned fictional university but there are more interesting locations as well where key parts of the drama were shot.
Here are some of our favourite filming locations from "Nevertheless," that you can visit too!
Spoiler Alert!
1. University of Ulsan
Most of the campus scenes of "Nevertheless," were shot in the University of Ulsan. Ulsan is also Han SoHee's hometown, which helped her immerse herself even more into her character, with passion.
As for the exact address, the University of Ulsan is located at 93 Daehak-ro, Nam-gu, Ulsan. Precise filming spots include the library, the Sculpture Major Practise Centre, the University Hall, and the cherry blossom garden.

Tensions rose as did the Ferris wheel on which Park JaeEon and Yoo NaBi were left all alone, forcing them to address the elephant in the room: their feelings for each other. Who can forget the iconic scene where Park JaeEon kneels in front of Yoo NaBi and NaBi can barely keep her composure.
