Playful Kiss|Seaes Hotel Jungmun — The Thatched Court They Booked After the License

Seaes Hotel and Resort, still published on maps as CS Hotel, occupies a garden plot on Jungmungwangwang-ro inside Jeju's Jungmun tourist complex. The rooms sit in low, thatched-roof pavilions around a lawn and a fountain. VisitKorea lists the property as a working hotel. Couples book it because the garden looks like a village that was rebuilt for guests.

Playful Kiss used those pavilions in episode 15 as the honeymoon address for Oh Ha-ni and Baek Seung-jo. After the family announced a wedding, the island sequence needed a court that was neither a Seoul kitchen nor a school corridor. The hotel supplied one. The lawn still opens toward the same coast as Jungmun Saekdal Beach and the International Convention Center.

The door is at 198 Jungmungwangwang-ro, Seogwipo. You cannot wander the guest rooms without a reservation. You can stand at the edge of the garden and see the roof line the cameras framed. Other dramas shot here too. This memory belongs to the afternoon the series finally treated the two of them as people who had chosen a room together.

The first day of filming, two months earlier, had been a residential street in Seongbuk. The last island hours were this lawn. Between those pins the plot learned how to stop calling her a nuisance.
