The staff were really friendly too, which made it feel like such a reliable spot for eating solo in Seomyeon. Eating alone can feel uncomfortable if you feel judged, but here it was totally fine!!! Totally my style (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

How did the 10,000-won mul-milmyeon taste?
First, I took a cool, refreshing slurp of the mul-milmyeon, Seomyeon Milmyeon's signature dish
The harmony of the icy broth and chewy noodles in my mouth was seriously insane, amazing!
The broth was deep and clean, so the moment I drank it, I felt totally refreshed :) The noodles were bouncy and chewy too, so every bite made me go 'wow.'
Especially with a bite of boiled egg and shredded cucumber, then drinking the cold broth straight from the bowl — total bliss!! Absolute paradise!!
Dumplings at 7,500 won: enough for one person?
Next up, dumplings dumplings dumplings dumplings~!
And dipping the freshly steamed dumplings into soy sauce
I took a big bite~!
The wrapper was thin and chewy, and the filling was packed with juicy meat — totally crispy outside, juicy inside, the best! The portion was more filling and generous than expected for a woman eating alone — a total budget-friendly solo-dining spot :)
For a date, I think one mul-milmyeon, one bibim-milmyeon, plus a plate of dumplings would be perfect (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)
