While walking around the village, the writer ordered spicy dakgangjeong (sweet-spicy fried chicken bites) to go, got a batch straight out of the fryer, and opened the box in the car because the smell was impossible to resist. The sweet-spicy sauce coated every piece evenly without being too fiery, so it was easy to share with a child. ## Good to know - **Ordered**: Spicy dakgangjeong (takeout) - **Location**: 27 Taejo-ro, 1st floor, Wansan-gu, Jeonju, Jeonbuk - **How it was served**: Takeout, handed over fresh from the fryer *as written by the visitor on Sep 22, 2026* ![Jeonju Hanok Village Mannyeon Dakgangjeong Hanok Village Direct Store main photo](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-01-117e1-1200.webp) ## Why Mannyeon Dakgangjeong was the snack stop in Jeonju Hanok Village While wandering around Jeonju Hanok Village trying to decide on a snack, I stopped by Mannyeon Dakgangjeong Hanok Village Direct Store. ![Exterior of Mannyeon Dakgangjeong Hanok Village Direct Store on Taejo-ro](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-02-1uh3k-900.webp) ![View of the dakgangjeong shop from the hanok village street](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-03-f2bll-900.webp) ![Entrance view of Mannyeon Dakgangjeong Hanok Village Direct Store](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-04-49761-900.webp) ![Street view in front of the dakgangjeong shop in the hanok village](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-05-2zj2q-900.webp) There's so much good food to try while exploring the hanok village, but sweet-and-savory dakgangjeong (Korean fried chicken bites) looked like something everyone, young and old, could enjoy without hesitation, so I packed some right away. ![Inside the shop as dakgangjeong is being prepared](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-06-rrfbd-900.webp) ![Kitchen packing freshly fried dakgangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-07-f3y00-900.webp) ## Dakgangjeong packed straight out of the fryer Peeking into the shop, I could see the dakgangjeong being prepared. When I visited, I got to pack chicken that had just come out of the fryer, piping hot — even more exciting. Dakgangjeong really is best eaten warm, fresh out of the fryer. ![Hot dakgangjeong waiting to be packed for takeout](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-08-i7yzv-900.webp) ![Takeout container of spicy dakgangjeong from Mannyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-09-1uqz9-900.webp) ## Opening the spicy dakgangjeong box in the car What I packed this time was the spicy dakgangjeong. The moment I picked up the container, the savory fried scent and sweet sauce aroma drifted up, and I just wanted to dig in right away. The delicious smell kept coming the whole ride home, and I couldn't resist — I ended up eating it in the car, haha. ![Spicy dakgangjeong takeout box opened inside the car](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-10-ae4t8-900.webp) When I opened the box, it was packed with appetizing, sauce-coated chicken bites. The outside was evenly covered in a sweet-spicy sauce, and the batter still looked crisp — just looking at it made my mouth water. ![Close-up of evenly sauce-coated spicy dakgangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-11-1p2gd-900.webp) ### How did the spicy dakgangjeong taste? One bite in, the crispy-fried chicken combined with the sweet sauce was delicious. The sauce was evenly distributed throughout, so every piece delivered that same flavor. It wasn't too heavy or intense — more of an easy, casual snack style, which made it fine to share with a kid. ![Bite-sized pieces of spicy dakgangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-12-5e2yb-900.webp) ![Cross-section of dakgangjeong showing the crispy batter](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-13-672vb-900.webp) ![Piece of dakgangjeong coated in sweet-spicy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-14-1lmo5-900.webp) ![Takeout container full of spicy dakgangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-15-16djb-900.webp) What I really liked was that I got dakgangjeong that had just come out of the fryer. Unlike dakgangjeong that gets soggy over time, this one still had some of that crisp texture when I first opened the box, and eating it while it was still warm definitely made it taste even better. It would work well as a quick snack when you get hungry wandering the hanok village, or as takeout to enjoy as a late-night bite before heading back to your accommodation. It's good for kids as a snack, and adults could easily pair it with beer or a drink too. ![Jeonju Hanok Village dakgangjeong as a snack](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-16-1s1ih-900.webp) ![Remaining spicy dakgangjeong in the takeout box](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-17-vodxy-900.webp) ![Spicy dakgangjeong as a hanok village outing snack](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-18-21csd-900.webp) ![Final shot of the packed spicy dakgangjeong from Mannyeon Dakgangjeong Hanok Village Direct Store](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout/jeonju-hanok-village-sweet-chicken-gangjeong-takeout-19-mue3x-900.webp) ## Is Mannyeon Dakgangjeong worth a stop in Jeonju Hanok Village?
