Where Exactly is the Squid Game Spot on Seongsu Cafe Street?
The Squid Game marble game scene (Episode 6, "Gganbu") was filmed at a backstreet near Seongsu Cafe Street, not far from Daelim Changgo (a major warehouse-turned-cafe). The spot is now a mini-pilgrimage for K-drama fans, complete with a distinctive yellow wall and a narrow alley — you'll recognize it from countless fan IG posts.
How to Find It:
- Start at Seongsu Station (Line 2, Exit 3).
- Walk straight for about 200 meters.
- Turn left at the first major intersection (look for the Daelim Changgo sign).
- Enter the alley next to Daelim Changgo — the Squid Game spot is about 100 meters in, under a yellow mural wall.
