The village of Iseltwald is to bring in measures this tourist season to restrict the number of Korean tourists drawn to the lakeside after it was featured in a major K-drama.
Last summer locals were unprepared for the influx of fans of the TV series, Crash Landing on You.
A location featuring a jetty on the lake was used as the main location for a major romantic scene.
This year the village will only allow prebooked tours. The coaches will have to have a reserved parking space and there will be a CHF 5 ‘selfie fee’.
The mayor, Peter Rubi, told the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation that they will get the situation under control to make sure regular tourists don’t have their stay disturbed.
