No Tail to Tell is entertaining the audience with its fusion of magic, romance, and insane entertainment! The SBS 2026 series follows the story of a young woman, Eun-ho, a nine-tailed fox (gumiho) who is unwillingly incited to human existence following an accident involving soccer celebrity Kang Si-yeol.

As viewers get attached to the story and performances, there is increasing curiosity about the location where the series was shot. The drama was filmed entirely in South Korea, and SBS has not officially revealed the filming locations.

Scenes have been followed, and potential locations have been determined by fans, although these are not confirmed. However, by examining the broad categories of places visited as well as some of the probable or fan-sourced places mentioned in the Tonboriday guide, we can get a fair idea.


Overview of No Tail to Tell

No Tail to Tell is a romantic-comedy fantasy drama that dropped on January 16, 2026, and airs Fridays and Saturdays at 21:50 KST on SBS TV. The series is based on a novel written by Park Chan-young and Jo Ah-young and directed by Kim Jung-kwon, and features Eun-ho (played by Kim Hye-yoon), the gumiho, and Kang Si-yeol (Lomon), the soccer star who causes an accident leading to a span of comedic, chaotic, and romantic misfortunes.

It is also worth highlighting that the drama has a very distinctive twist: Eun-ho does not become a human willingly. Rather, she is dragged into humanity, causing comical and sometimes untidy circumstances as she tries to find her way in human society, slowly forming new relationships and emotional bonds.


General filming context of No Tail to Tell

Although the official locations are not confirmed, it seems that No Tail to Tell utilizes multiple urban streets, scenic parks, and studio settings in South Korea. This follows the trend of K-drama production in which real-life streets and indoor sets are used to build the immersive locations.

Communities of fans, blogs, and guides such as the Tonboriday have tried to trace scenes and place names where films were shot, and created lists of probable locations. These include historical theme parks, cafes, shopping regions, and natural sceneries.


Cityscapes in No Tail to Tell

K-dramas also usually use an urban setting to show the daily life of characters and their work and social life. In No Tail to Tell, the unwilling acclimatization of Eun-ho to the life of a human being is frequently put into perspective in urban streets, trade areas, and public places.

Fan-sourced guides suggest that the shoot locations consist of Teheran-ro, Gangnam-daero in Seoul, where Eun-ho meets people, and the suburbs (Bon-dong), which could have been used to shoot intimate and home-like sequences. They give the feeling of the urban settings where the drama takes place.


Landscapes and fancy backgrounds in No Tail to Tell

The Korean dramas focus on outdoor settings, which offer room to carry out reflective or dramatic scenes. In No Tail to Tell, some of the places that a fan can observe are Seoraksan National Park and Yongdeoksa Temple, which may have been utilized in either scenic or emotional scenes.

The series is set in other natural settings, such as riverbanks, city parks, and promenades.


Historical and studio sets in No Tail to Tell

It seems that some episodes use historical or controlled studio settings to create a specific atmosphere. The use of the Yongin Daejanggeum Theme Park and the Mungyeong Saejae Open Set has been spotted by eagle-eyed fans.

Studios provide a good opportunity to control lighting, design, and sound so that the show can be integrated into the human surroundings with the use of fantasy. The magical or chaotic scenes that Eun-ho captures are probably shot in such a restricted space to sustain the quality and continuity.


Cafes, restaurants, and lifestyle areas in No Tail to Tell

Efforts to depict scenes of daily human life in No Tail to Tell can include cafes, restaurants, and other locations. According to fans, there are the Walking on the Cloud cafe and some local restaurants. These places help bring to life Eun-ho's transformation into human life as she explores common spaces in a comical, awkward manner.

Although these cafes and restaurants are fictional, they represent common K-drama production approaches that combine available places with good visual appeal with interior sets.


Sports and special venues in No Tail to Tell

As Kang Si-yeol used to be a soccer player, some episodes contain sports grounds, gyms, and stadiums. Pocheon Sports Complex has been proposed by fans as one of the most probable locations, and other scenes can be located at the sports grounds of universities or schools.

Once again, these are fan theories and not verified, but they show how the production establishes location decisions via character backgrounds and makes immersive, narrative environments.


The gumiho struggles to learn how to adapt to life in human society throughout the length of the series.


The first episode of No Tail to Tell debuted on January 16 (2026), every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 PM KST. The premiere will be available on Netflix worldwide.
