Dadaepo Port

8 story sections

On the southern coast of Busan, this tranquil port becomes a site of investigative tension in Season 2 [43]. Seeking to locate the game island before the new round begins, Gi-hun and Detective Jun-ho team up to hire a local boatman [43]. The scenes capture the choppy, grey coastal waters as they venture out to track the elusive facility [43]. Today, Dadaepo is known for its beautiful sunsets and calm maritime atmosphere, a peaceful contrast to the high-stakes investigation depicted in the series [43, 44].
