Known for traditional Korean cuisine, this spot draws diners from across Seoul.
2 min walk from Hongdae Station Station, making it easy to combine your meal with a visit to nearby attractions like Hongdae Guide: Seoul's Indie Music & Nightlife Hub.
Korean cuisine (hansik) is built around balance — fermented sides (banchan), a steaming bowl of rice, and a main dish that changes with the season. Meals are served all at once rather than in courses, and sharing dishes at the table is the norm. The depth of flavor comes from slow-fermented pastes like doenjang (soybean) and gochujang (chili), which form the backbone of soups, stews, and marinades across the country.
Mapo-gu — home to Hongdae, Sinchon, and Hapjeong — is Seoul's youth and arts district, defined by its university population, live music venues, and creative energy. The food scene is diverse, affordable, and experimental: trendy cafés, late-night pojangmacha, global street food, and boundary-pushing restaurants all compete for attention in this perpetually buzzing neighbourhood.

View all →This restaurant’s name literally translates to “Soup and Rice,” a combination that represents true Korean comfort food. In Korea, a warm bowl of soup served with rice is a timeless, everyday staple that feels both nourishing and satisfying. The menu highlights two classic styles: a rich, milky beef bone soup (white broth) and a bold, flavorful beef soup (red broth). Both are deeply comforting and packed with authentic taste. One of the best parts is their unlimited side dish bar, featuring fresh, traditional banchan. The kimchi, in particular, is outstanding—perfectly balanced and full of flavor. They also provide salt and pepper at the table, allowing you to season your soup exactly to your preference, just like locals do. A simple concept executed perfectly—highly recommended for anyone wanting to experience genuine Korean comfort food
Very easy to order via the iPad. All the food came out promptly, for four people who all ordered one main gukbap dish and one large yukjeon came out to $48. Very good deal ☺️
I got bulgolgi hotpot and the flavour was seasoned really well! My partner got the Miso gomtang Wanja Jeongsig, and said it tasted a bit bland and unfortunately doesn’t have a lot of meat in it. The food was served within 10 minutes and staff are friendly! ☺️
