After browsing the Yongsan Electronics Market and watching an IMAX film at CGV Yongsan, the writer ordered the Hyeonseon-i combo set with normal-spice tteokbokki, which came with sundae (blood sausage) and liver, mini gimbap (seaweed rice rolls), mixed fritters and three odeng (fish cake) skewers. The sweet-and-spicy school-front-style tteokbokki and the savory odeng broth were the highlights, and the three spice levels make Hyeonseonine easy even for those who can't take heat. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–24:00 - **Break time**: Mon 14:30–16:00 - **Last order**: 22:40 - **Tteokbokki spice levels**: Mild / Normal / Spicy - **What we ordered**: Hyeonseon-i combo set (normal-spice tteokbokki, sundae & liver, mini gimbap, mixed fritters, 3 odeng skewers) - **Best for**: Up to 2 people as a meal, up to 3 as a snack - **Self-serve bar**: Pickled radish, tableware, salt and more *as written by the visitor on Sep 15, 2026* ![First scene of the visit to Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-01-1wr3t-m-900.webp) Hi everyone~! I came to Yongsan after a long while~! I wandered around the Yongsan electronics market that Jensen Huang apparently visits often~ Still crowded and buzzing with that Yongsan energy, which I loved~ I'd heard the IMAX screen at CGV Yongsan Station is always the best, so I finally watched a movie there~! Wandering around worked up an appetite~?! ## What kind of place is Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch? Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch is a traditional bunsik (Korean snack food) restaurant on Hangang-daero 39-gil in Yongridan-gil, Yongsan, Seoul. It started as a street cart in 2004 and now runs eight directly operated branches! If you visit Yongsan often you'll know it~ the traditional bunsik spot that's kept watch over Yongsan! And this Yongsan location is the main branch~ I was craving thick, school-front-style tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), so I came here~! This is Hyeonseonine haha ### Finding the Hyeonseonine storefront on Yongridan-gil ![Exterior of Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-02-32jad-900.webp) ![Entrance of Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch in Yongridan-gil](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-03-1okcu-900.webp) ## Inside Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch and its self-serve bar Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch was surprisingly big and spacious for a tteokbokki place~! There were lots of office workers dining solo, and groups gathered to cook instant tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes) together at their tables. Plenty of staff too, each clearly assigned to hall or kitchen duties~ a systematic bunsik restaurant indeed! ![Spacious dining hall inside Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-04-kabx4-900.webp) ![Table seating at Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-05-1a6bq-900.webp) ![Overall interior view of Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-06-ghxqi-m-900.webp) ![Seating layout in the dining hall of Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-07-ykhvd-900.webp) At the self-serve bar you can freely grab pickled radish, tableware, salt, and more~! ![Self-serve bar with pickled radish and tableware](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-08-byzbr-900.webp) ## Hyeonseonine's menu and how to pick your spice level Hyeonseonine's signature is deliciously spicy tteokbokki~! You can pick mild, normal, or spicy, which was a huge relief for us heat-shy folks haha ![Menu board at Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-09-pso81-900.webp) ![Menu board listing sets and combos](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-10-1dfrt-900.webp) There's instant tteokbokki that gets better the longer it simmers, handmade mini gimbap (seaweed rice roll), handmade sundae (blood sausage), warm hearty odeng (fish cake), and crispy mixed fritters~! Every bunsik menu item is here! Nice that you can order à la carte or go for a set or combo~~ ## Is the Hyeonseon-i combo set enough for two people? We ordered the Hyeonseon-i combo set at Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch~! It comes with normal-spice tteokbokki, sundae/liver, mini gimbap, mixed fritters, and three odeng skewers, so we got to taste everything! It's enough for two as a meal, or up to three as a snack!~ It arrived almost right after ordering, perfect for busy modern life~ ![Full spread of the Hyeonseon-i combo set](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-11-12ock-1200.webp) ### How normal-spice tteokbokki and the odeng broth taste The tteokbokki was just the right sweet-spicy balance, with sauce well soaked into the rice cakes so I kept reaching for more..! Made without any fancy tricks, just traditional and tasty?! And a sip of the odeng broth... ah, bunsik odeng really is the best! Clean yet savory, so I kept spooning it up nonstop haha There were three squiggly odeng skewers too, so my husband and I shared happily~ ![Close-up of normal-spice tteokbokki](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-12-rx1nk-900.webp) ![Squiggly odeng skewers with odeng broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-13-1w53o-900.webp) ### Mixed fritters, handmade sundae and mini gimbap The fritters included vegetable, yakki-mandu (pan-fried dumpling), squid, and sweet potato, each cut in half for easy sharing, and best of all, super crispy with generous filling~haha Tasted like something mom made at home. The handmade sundae (blood sausage) had more volume than expected! The liver was cut in thick pieces too, no gamey smell, and delicious! The mini gimbap had cooled a bit but I dipped it into the warm broth~! We came for tteokbokki, but you'd miss the sides otherwise, right?! Nice that Hyeonseonine has this combo set so you can eat a variety in small portions without getting tired of it~! ![Mixed fritters served cut in half](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-14-1va8s-900.webp) ![Handmade sundae served with liver](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-15-1qzqo-900.webp) ![Handmade mini gimbap dipped in broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set/yongsan-tteokbokki-hyunseonine-combo-set-16-1dl8j-900.webp) ## Final verdict on Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch If you're looking for a simple but tasty bunsik restaurant in Yongsan, I recommend Hyeonseonine~!
