Overview

Masan Marine Drama Film Set is a permanent outdoor production site situated on the coastline of Gusan-myeon, Changwon. Established in 2010, the set replicates a Gaya-era harbor and village, featuring traditional wooden buildings and straw-roofed huts. It has served as a primary filming location for numerous Korean historical dramas and movies, including 'Kim Suro' and 'Six Flying Dragons'. The site features functional ship replicas docked at a recreated wooden pier. A coastal walking path connects the film set to the surrounding forest and the adjacent sea. The architecture is designed to reflect the early Three Kingdoms period of Korea. Visitors can explore the interiors of various structures, such as blacksmith workshops and merchant houses. The terrain includes a mix of maintained gravel paths and uneven wooden walkways.
