About 분식

Bunsik — Korean street-food snacks — evolved as affordable, filling fare for students and workers after the Korean War. Tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), kimbap (seaweed rice rolls), sundae (blood sausage), and odeng (fish cake skewers in broth) are the staples. Most bunsik restaurants are fast, casual, and open late, making them a go-to for a quick hot meal at any hour.

About Jung-Gu

Jung-gu sits at the geographic and commercial center of Seoul, encompassing Myeongdong (K-beauty and street food), Namdaemun Market, and the financial district. The food here spans the full range — from tourist-facing street stalls in Myeongdong to understated lunch joints serving office workers, and traditional Korean restaurants that have operated for decades without needing to advertise.

★★★★★Naomi Naomi6 months ago

I've been here for lunch a few times. 😍 I used to go to a different restaurant on this street to eat oyster possum, but I love garlic and possum, so I love this place.

★★★★★nashu7 months ago

Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant! I had the small bossam set, and it was full of garlic and had an addictive flavor. It also came with chijimi and appetizers, all of which were delicious. The chijimi was crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, and was fantastic when eaten with makgeolli. Maybe because it was a rainy day, the makgeolli really hit the spot...! And above all, the ladies working at the restaurant were really kind and helpful. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, even for first-timers, and there were many Japanese women dining alone. It was a comfortable atmosphere, and I found myself wanting to stay for a while. If you love bossam, garlic, and Korean food, this is a must-visit

★★★★★Jieun Kong7 months ago

When you're craving oyster bossam, Obok is the place to go! The oysters are fresh and delicious! I'll definitely be back!
