(16 reviews)
A long-running (hand-cut noodle) shop tucked into Sinjeong Market’s alley. You can watch the staff knead and slice the dough at the entrance; the noodles are boiled to order and served in a clear, savory broth topped with sesame, spinach, gim, and seasoning. The bowls are hearty and the noodles satisfyingly chewy — a true market-style comfort meal.

Local Tips

  • Watch fresh dough being rolled and sliced at the shop entrance — noodles boiled immediately.
  • Hearty, chewy kalguksu in a clear, flavorful broth; portions are notably large.
  • No parking—visit during a market stroll; try the kalguksu (large) or kongguksu in summer.
