RPV: Expect Delays on PVDS During Film Shoot

Motorists may encounter brief delays on Palos Verdes Drive South during the day on Tuesday while a Korean television project films a driving scene along the route, according to an alert from the city of Rancho Palos Verdes.

Filming for The Heirs—also known as The Inheritors, according to various online sources—will be permitted on Palos Verdes Drive South between Schooner Drive and Palos Verdes Drive East from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. to avoid peak morning and afternoon commute times, according to the city.


"This is just a one-day, kind of a one-shot production," said Kit Fox, a senior analyst for the RPV city manager's office and film permit coordinator. "It's actually fairly small, aside from the traffic control."

Deputies with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Lomita Station will provide intermittent traffic control.

The Heirs, a television series set to premiere in October, stars Lee Min-ho, Choi Jin-hyeok, Park Sin-hye and Kim Ji-won-I. The series "follows a group of privileged, elite high school students as they are groomed to take over their families' business empires," according to HanCinema: The Korean Movie and Drama Database.

This is the only scene the project will film in Rancho Palos Verdes, Fox said.

Filming will not conflict with construction activity on the San Ramon Canyon or California Coastal Trail projects, according to the RPV Department of Public Works.
