The writer ordered a medium shrimp+chicken gangjeong in spicy, plus fried jjondeugi (chewy rice snack) from Gyodong Jjondeugi next door, eating the jjondeugi on the spot and carrying the gangjeong home. The spicy level at Mannyeon Dakgangjeong runs hotter than Shin Ramyun, yet the fresh-fruit sauce keeps it clean-tasting, and the sauce soaked in even better once the chicken cooled. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–21:00 - **Parking**: Jeonju Hanok Village Parking Lots 1 and 2 - **Flavors**: Mild, spicy, soy sauce, plain fried - **Menu lineup**: Dakgangjeong / shrimp+chicken gangjeong / shrimp gangjeong - **Sizes**: Medium (serves 2–3), large (serves 3–4); half-and-half only in large - **What was ordered**: Shrimp+chicken gangjeong (medium), spicy; fried jjondeugi - **Cooking wait**: About 5–10 minutes *as written by the visitor on Sep 17, 2026* ## Where is Mannyeon Dakgangjeong in Jeonju Hanok Village? Mannyeon Dakgangjeong is a dakgangjeong shop at the intersection near the entrance of Taejo-ro in Jeonju Hanok Village. It's open daily from 11:00 to 21:00, and you can park at Jeonju Hanok Village Parking Lots 1 or 2. I visited Jeonju Hanok Village, which is such a famous place to visit in Jeonju. You can find all kinds of food along the pretty hanok alleys. Today I want to introduce [Mannyeon Dakgangjeong]. > [Mannyeon Dakgangjeong] > Hours⏰ Daily 11:00 ~ 21:00 > Parking⏰ Jeonju Hanok Village Parking Lots 1 and 2 available⭕ ![View of the hanok streets in Jeonju Hanok Village](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-01-1dpwa-900.webp) Have you all been to the hanok village? It's pretty no matter when you go! ![An alley in Jeonju Hanok Village lined with tiled roofs](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-02-15ck8-900.webp) I live close to Gwangju, so whenever I go to Jeonju I stop by the hanok village like a sparrow visiting a mill. Being a tourist spot, the food trends there seem to change all the time — lately it's fresh fruit mochi? But there are still shops that hold their ground, and among them, you can't skip [Mannyeon Dakgangjeong], which is basically the original dakgangjeong spot. ![Exterior of Mannyeon Dakgangjeong Hanok Village Direct Store at the Taejo-ro intersection](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-03-1fuvp-900.webp) ## Mannyeon Dakgangjeong menu: which flavor and size to pick The point of Mannyeon Dakgangjeong's menu is that you can try various combinations: dakgangjeong, shrimp+chicken gangjeong, and shrimp gangjeong. There are mild, spicy, soy sauce, and fried flavors, generally in medium and large sizes. Half-and-half can only be chosen in the large size. As you stroll through the quiet hanok street, you can easily find it at the intersection near the entrance. The medium size seems to be about 2–3 servings, and the large about 3–4 servings. ![Mannyeon Dakgangjeong's menu board and size guide](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-04-h9qq0-900.webp) They also run a shop called Gyodong Jjondeugi right next door, so you can enjoy the jjondeugi (chewy rice snack) + beer combo too. ![The Gyodong Jjondeugi shop next to Mannyeon Dakgangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-05-1cgz1-m-900.webp) Is it just me, or does it feel like you have to eat a fried jjondeugi when you visit a place like this haha. > 🍽Order🍽 > ✔Shrimp+Chicken Gangjeong (Medium) - Spicy > ✔Fried Jjondeugi I worried the shrimp would feel left out if I only ordered chicken, so I ordered something we could enjoy together!! ![Order notice for the medium spicy shrimp+chicken gangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-06-4451u-m-900.webp) ## Fresh-fruit sauce, open kitchen and a 5–10 minute wait Mannyeon Dakgangjeong says it's known for using fresh fruit sauce so there's no smell. The medium shrimp+chicken gangjeong in spicy flavor took about 5–10 minutes after ordering. This is just personal preference, but I think dakgangjeong or yangnyeom chicken taste even better once they've cooled down. There was a sign that spoke directly to that preference of mine, and I couldn't just walk past it>< ![Shop sign saying it's tasty even cold](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-07-1lb1z-900.webp) It had been a while since I last had it, so I was so excited that the wait felt endless,, (honestly it only took 5-10 minutes haha) ![Waiting for the order in front of Mannyeon Dakgangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-08-jjkad-900.webp) Oh!! And Jeonju's famous moju is well-known too, so if you visit, I recommend having it alongside!! It tastes like herbal medicine, similar to ssanghwa tea, mild and delicious😋 ![Jeonju moju displayed alongside the food](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-09-40pxa-900.webp) ![Open kitchen cooking scene at Mannyeon Dakgangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-10-7hbum-900.webp) I guess it's an occupational habit,,, I can't help it, but I'm sensitive about hygiene?? Maybe because it's an open kitchen, but the oil was clean and the surroundings tidy, which gave off confidence about hygiene — a pass!! Watching them toss the freshly fried gangjeong in sauce right in front of you is such fun to watch live, but I just ended up drooling next to it,,,🤤 The spicy flavor has garlic and cheongyang chili added to the hot sauce. ![Spicy shrimp-chicken gangjeong topped with cheongyang chili and garlic](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-11-1qqfq-1200.webp) I regret not eating it right away,, I regret holding back after seeing this visual,, I left the lid slightly open to carry it home, and the smell nearly drove me crazy the whole way home!!!!!🥴 ![The medium shrimp-chicken gangjeong packed in a takeout container](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-12-qj6wx-900.webp) ### Fried jjondeugi from Gyodong Jjondeugi next door, eaten on the spot I ordered the fried jjondeugi together from Gyodong Jjondeugi next to Mannyeon Dakgangjeong, and it really tastes best eaten right on the spot. It's such a great beer snack, seriously,,ㅜㅜ Am I quite an adult for wanting a drink with something like this??ㅋ ![Freshly fried jjondeugi from Gyodong Jjondeugi](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-13-rdene-612.webp) Once you fall for its addictive taste, you can't escape it>< (the plastic gloves are from Ojjang Twigim across the street!) ![Taking a bite of jjondeugi on the street](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-14-5wc8g-900.webp) ## How spicy is the shrimp+chicken gangjeong once it cools at home? Mannyeon Dakgangjeong's spicy flavor seems hotter than Shin Ramyun, so keep that in mind when ordering. When I got home and ate it cooled down, the sauce had soaked into the fried batter, making it even tastier. As soon as I got home, before I even put my bags down, I took a bite right away lolol I'll never forget that first bite (╹ڡ╹) There's a reason it's known as a famous Jeonju Hanok Village restaurant. I ate the plump shrimp gangjeong first. I fully agree, a hundred times over, that it's delicious even cold. The sauce soaking into the fried coating makes it even better!!! ![Shrimp gangjeong and dakgangjeong eaten cooled down at home](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong-15-1jo0m-900.webp) The dakgangjeong really has no smell at all, and eating it with chili is amazing!! The spicy kick hits right, so you never get tired of it. It seems spicier than Shin Ramyun, so keep that in mind when ordering. It's a place where you can enjoy a sauce flavor you never get sick of. ## Who should order Mannyeon Dakgangjeong spicy? Torn between too many food choices in Jeonju Hanok Village?? If you've booked a stay nearby and want a late-night snack, or if you want to take it home like I did, I highly recommend [Mannyeon Dakgangjeong]👍 ## Where it is - Mannyeon Dakgangjeong Hanok Village Direct Store (만년닭강정 한옥마을직영점) - 27 Taejo-ro, Wansan-gu, Jeonju-si, Jeonbuk State, South Korea - 전북특별자치도 전주시 완산구 태조로 27 1층 만년닭강정 - 35.8143956, 127.1518445 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A7%8C%EB%85%84%EB%8B%AD%EA%B0%95%EC%A0%95%20%ED%95%9C%EC%98%A5%EB%A7%88%EC%9D%84%EC%A7%81%EC%98%81%EC%A0%90/@35.8143956,127.1518445,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@honam-corner-menu/jeonju-hanok-village-spicy-shrimp-chicken-gangjeong/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
