Ha Yeong-eun (Song) possesses not just a discerning taste for fashion, but also decor for her home. The luxurious centrally-located apartment in Seoul, boasts large floor-to-ceiling windows that frame a stunning view of the city’s skyline and Korea’s famous Han River.

Exuding sophisticated and modern elegance, the abode is furnished with top-of-the-line appliances ranging from Bang & Olufsen speakers to Samsung refrigerators and TV. Ingo Maurer lighting offers a warm glow and a decorative touch to the apartment. Ha apparently uses china from Royal Albert, as proclaimed by an impressed Seok Do-hoon (Kim Joo-Hun) when he pays her a visit with the other casts.

The highlight of the fashion designer’s home, however, is her walk-in closet. The dream dressing room is a lavish space that houses all her clothes as well as a built-in vanity nook. Designed to impress, the warmly-lit space even has a boutique-style island counter with drawers that we bet houses all of her Chaumet and other prized watch and jewellery pieces.
