I took home half fried chicken and half seasoned chicken to enjoy with chilled wine, alternating between the crisp fried pieces and sweet-spicy sauce. A great pick for takeout chicken in Seokgwan-dong. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1F, 561 Hancheon-ro, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul, South Korea (서울 성북구 한천로 561 1층) - **Service**: Takeout and delivery available - **Order**: Half fried chicken, half seasoned chicken - **Chicken menu**: Crispy Fried, Classic Seasoned Chicken, Sweet-Savory Garlic Soy Sauce, Spicy Drumsticks, Spicy Light Chili Mayo, Spicy Soy Sauce Chicken, Hwadongi Chicken, Maemdongi Chicken - **Side menu**: Cajun fries, Loaded cheese fries *as written by the visitor on Sep 11, 2026* New chicken flavors are great too, but sometimes I just crave the most classic half fried chicken, half seasoned chicken combo. Last weekend! I chose chicken as a snack to pair with chilled wine. There are so many kinds of chicken these days that I always end up deliberating when I order, but this time, rather than mixing lots of things together, I went for the faithful-to-the-basics half fried, half seasoned combo. Being able to enjoy two flavors with one whole chicken is definitely the biggest draw of half-and-half chicken. Move from crisp fried chicken to sweet-spicy seasoned chicken, and you can keep eating right to the end without getting tired of it!! ![Half fried and half seasoned chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-01-1f015-1200.webp) ## Hidongi Chicken Seokgwan Branch at the entrance to Dolgoji Market This time, I tried Hidongi Chicken Seokgwan Branch (히동이치킨 석관점), a great chicken spot in Seokgwan-dong. It is a neighborhood chicken restaurant on the first floor at 561 Hancheon-ro, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul, right at the entrance to Dolgoji Market. It is very accessible, and both takeout and delivery are available, so it is easy to use. ![Chicken restaurant location at the entrance to Dolgoji Market](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-02-3y3vf-900.webp) ![Hidongi Chicken Seokgwan Branch information](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-03-1ktl2-900.webp) If you call ahead before arriving, you can pick it up straight away without waiting, so keep that in mind. ![Instructions for pickup after ordering by phone](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-04-1p6qc-900.webp) ## Hidongi Chicken Seokgwan Branch menu The menu at Hidongi Chicken Seokgwan Branch is as follows. There are lots of chicken choices, including Crispy Fried, Classic Seasoned Chicken, Sweet-Savory Garlic Soy Sauce, Spicy Drumsticks, Spicy Light Chili Mayo, Spicy Soy Sauce Chicken, Hwadongi Chicken, and Maemdongi Chicken, plus sides such as Cajun fries and loaded cheese fries, making it nice to choose according to your taste! ![Hidongi Chicken chicken menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-05-1gk1t-900.webp) ![Hidongi Chicken side menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-06-1e73x-900.webp) ## What came with the half fried, half seasoned takeout After picking it up, it was off home!!! Half fried chicken, half seasoned chicken, plus chicken radish and sauces—a satisfying spread~ ![Takeout half-and-half chicken with chicken radish and sauces](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-07-185qf-900.webp) Golden fried chicken and seasoned chicken coated evenly in sauce, all glossy and tempting! Just seeing it again while writing this post makes my mouth water. Chicken is a beloved national takeout favorite for everyone, young and old, so it is also wonderful to enjoy with the whole family! ![Half fried and half seasoned chicken set](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-08-1kzxu-900.webp) ## Crispy fried chicken Naturally, the fried chicken was what I reached for first! It looked appetizing from its golden fried exterior alone, and the crisp coating when you bite in really brings out fried chicken's appeal. Personally, rather than a coating that is too thick or greasy, I like fried chicken where you can enjoy a crisp texture alongside moist chicken! Hidongi Chicken's Crispy Fried is introduced as a signature menu item, so it is a great choice for anyone who loves that crispy style. ![Crispy fried chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-09-s0gtk-900.webp) ## Alternating bites with sweet-spicy seasoned chicken And of course, you cannot leave out the seasoned chicken that is perfect for alternating with the fried pieces. The sauce is evenly coated over crisply fried chicken, making it look delicious even from its sheen. After enjoying the nutty, clean flavor of the fried chicken, the sweet-spicy seasoned chicken wakes up your appetite all over again~ Especially when you order half-and-half, there is more variety than eating a whole chicken of just fried, and neither side becomes tiresome too quickly—that is the charm of half-and-half chicken. ![Chicken evenly coated in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-10-34csr-900.webp) ![A piece of sweet-spicy seasoned chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-11-797ep-900.webp) For the first few pieces, eat the fried chicken just as it is with no sauce! Then dip it lightly in salt or sauce for another kind of appeal~ ![Fried chicken eaten with sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-12-q1ew3-900.webp) It is so delicious, fried crispy on the outside and moist inside. Fried in clean oil, it is not greasy but light and clean-tasting~ It is just the thing when you are craving quality chicken. ![Crispy, moist fried chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-13-6giwy-900.webp) ![Light, clean-tasting half-and-half chicken takeout](https://img.superchart.com/images/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine/seokgwan-hidongi-half-chicken-wine-14-1kxjz-900.webp) ## Seokgwan-dong takeout chicken paired with wine It would be lovely with a cold beer or soda too~ I enjoyed mine deliciously with chilled wine.
