Noun + 에 = IN some place | TO some place | AT some time.
N에 has different usages but here are the 4 main ones.

N에 To express the direction in which a particular action proceeds (ing + to). In this case, is used with verbs such as
- N에 가다 (to go)
- N에 오다 (to come)
- N에 들아가다 (to attend, to commute)
- N에 도착하다 (to arrive)
- N에 오라가다 (to go up)
- N에 내려기디 (to go down)
N에 To express the location of a thing or person (in/on) with the verbs N에 있디 and N에 없다.
- Non-action verbs and adjectives cannot be used.
N에 To express the time when an action takes place (at/on).
- Please note that it cannot be added to nouns that express time such as 그저께 (the day before yesterday), 어제 (yesterday), 오늘 (today), 내일 (tomorrow), 모레 (the day after tomorrow) or 언제 (when).
- If more than one noun representing time appears in the sentence, 에 should be added to the last one only.
- 에 can be combined with the particles 에도 and 에는.
N에 To express that the noun attached to it is a measuring basis for a price or calculation (see last examples bellow)
