These 7 K-Drama Shows Got Us Hooked With Stunning Home Interiors
From Yoon Se-ri’s pad to the Goblin’s antique-furnished house, these shows made us fall for their homes, too!
It’s hard not to catch the bug—of the K-drama fever, that is. Whether you’ve been a fan since the beginning of Hallyu, or more known as the Korean Wave, in our country around late ‘00, or has been recently introduced to it thanks to Netflix (hello, CLOY fans!), it’s a hit that’s impossible to ignore. The lockdown gave us more time to explore more shows to watch. You’re probably on your nth series now—we just can’t help but get hooked on these dramas!
But more than beautiful actors and binge-worthy storylines of these TV shows, there’s another thing that’s hard to miss: the house setting interiors. A K-drama’s usual element of a super rich bachelor/lady boss requires a set to create a stunning home interior. And it’s enough to keep our eyes peeled on the screen!
From floor-to-ceiling glass walls that allow a lot of light inside, to elegant and classy or colorful and bold accessories that furnished its interiors, these dramas gave us serious design lust. Did your choice make it to the list? Here are our favorite K-drama homes that we’d love to copy for our personal spaces, too!

Crash Landing On You
Of course, first on our list is Yoon Se-ri’s house! We love this tropical-inspired space, with lots of warm hues and an indoor garden to boot. Se-ri’s choice in interiors presents a lot of geometric elements as well, as seen in the angular ceilings and the hexagon shelves reminiscent of a beehive.

What's Wrong With Secretary Kim
Lee Young-joon’s bachelor pad boasts of glass walls that take in the beautiful view of the outdoors. Inside, white is the dominating color, complementing an already spacious area. Accent pieces give his house more character—from an accent lounge chair down to his choice of posh accessories.

Uncontrollably Fond
Modern minimalist with masculine characteristics—it’s Shin Joon-young’s interior style. He sticks to a clean palette, such as choosing crisp white for his living room and muted blues and grays for the master bedroom.

My Love From The Star
What stands out from Do Min-joon’s apartment is, in the midst of his home’s modern interiors, the touch of nature—a large one, at that. The huge indoor tree is a breath of fresh air within a contemporary setup. Meanwhile, his traditional style library is another noteworthy spot!

Legend of the Blue Sea
Airy and cool to the eyes, Heo Joon-jae’s place is very in-theme with the drama. The presence of coastal elements in its interiors give off a relaxing vibe, while sleek and trendy decor offer an urban update on the space.

Goblin
Marble floors, fancy lights, arched windows, exquisite art pieces, antiques—these are lavish components of Gong Yoo’s goblin character’s house in the show. The well-lit, tastefully adorned interiors spells heirloom chic, a refreshing midcentury modern look compared to a standard leading man abode.

I am Not a Robot
The sets created for I am Not A Robot support the plot which revolves around a rich young man who has been trapped in his gilded tower for 15 years because of his allergy to humans. In this K-Drama, gender norms are challenged. The hero is in need of saving. The interiors convey modern luxe at its finest: a cold mix of classic details expressed in interior accessories and architectural detailing, and modern materials such as glass, mirrors and steel. All of them work together to portray the loneliness and the drab world of Kim Min-Kyu before he gets saved by love.
