Lougheed House, Calgary’s iconic sandstone mansion, has drawn global attention as a filming site for Netflix’s new Korean romance series, Can This Love Be Translated?

Starring South Korean leads Kim Seon-ho and Go Youn-jung, the series — which debuted January 16 — explores a relationship between an actress and her interpreter, using Calgary backdrops to capture pivotal moments.

Alongside Lougheed House, scenes were shot at Heritage Park and The Next Page bookstore in Inglewood, expanding Calgary’s cinematic footprint.

Shannon Murray, executive director, celebrated the mansion’s universal appeal and its resonance beyond Alberta.

Having already hosted productions like Billy the Kid, Lougheed House continues to drive both tourism and film business as Calgary’s industry thrives.

Since its 1891 construction, the site has evolved from family home to wartime barracks, YWCA, and finally a museum spotlighting local history.

Fiona McTaggart calls its role in international filming a sign of growth and inclusivity for Calgary’s creative scene.
