One of the most beautiful BTS visited locations in Korea is easily is the infamous BTS Bus Stop! The Bus Stop is in the heart of Jumunjin Beach, which alone is simply breathtaking. The beach itself is quieter, but do prepare for there to be a line of other Armys waiting to get their own photos with the bus bench! There was a bit of a wait, but the overall experience was worth it in the end! Checked an item off my Army bucket list for sure!

Went here the first time in April 2018, but things were different back then: there was no poster on the bus stop, there was no photo stand across the street for me to rest my phone/camera on, there was no tourist taxi that included the iconic YNWA bus stop along its route.Fast forward to April 2023 and with BTS' fame, things are easier and more convenient to get that picture perfect shot to commemorate my BTSxArmy pilgrimage. As with most BTS-related spots, there was a bit of a queue to get a photo, but it moved pretty quickly.To get here from Gangneung KTX station, go to the tourist information center to rent a tourist taxi for three hours and a fixed price. You can also include other stops like the local market, coffee street, the Goblin shooting spot, among others. If you need more than three hours, you can also top up with an additional fee.

Bucket list location for any army who appreciates the WINGS and HYYH era!♡ we waited for a few people to take pictures, but nothing major.As well as the bus stop, which doesn't play music or have any magical features other than a safe feeling and warm memories, there is more to this little beach!We went after staying in the soop, it was a bit cold in the middle of winter but we loved it!!There's plenty of seats for army to choose from, purple hearts with bench swings, a cute purple seat on the beach with a great view, a fun swing great for pictures, and each member has their own seat along the trees where army can be delusional and imagine ㅂㅌㅅ is sitting nearby ~

A nice location to stop over at the iconic BTS bus stop where people click pictures n make videos. The beach here is stunning and has some perfect views too. Nice place to do a picnic if one wants.We visited on a Tuesday morning and it wasn’t crowded. We took pictures easily and spent a couple of minutes walking on the beach too. It’s beautiful
