Sihwa Village in Seosan-dong is a place that conjures up feelings of nostalgia for the bygone days, home to a beautiful view of the harbor, the sea, and the villages atop Borimadang. Popular tourist sites include the Sihwa Alley, decorated with residents’ writings and pictures, and Yeonhee’s Supermarket, the filming location of “1987: When the Day Comes (2017).” Yeonhee’s Supermarket, in particular, offers photo spots and experiences that recreate scenes from the film.
