Maknae Hoetjip in Namdaemun is so famous that I had to go see for myself.
A place like this
Easy enough to find, but the stairs up are brutal.
This kind of vibe..
Plenty of regulars here.
Hoedeopbap, 8,000 won
The braised mackerel is nothing special.
The broth
This one was no good either.. The hoedeopbap, on the other hand, is decent quality and cheap with it. It’s a fine place to go for the low price, but calling it a great restaurant is a bit of a stretch. You’d honestly be better off going just for the hoe.
Traces of the fire
Still exactly as it was.
Shuttered places in Myeongdong
It’s a bleak sight.
Street stalls
All sorts of foods I’d never seen or heard of. Plenty of shops go under, but stalls like these bounce right back.
This kind of vibe
This kind of vibe
Trends really do seem to change fast.
