## In short

Cheongchuni Oranda is an oranda and traditional snack shop just inside Gate 8-1 of Jeju Dongmun Market. After sampling a few kinds, the writer bought the ₩12,000 mareung (garlic) oranda for room snacks and four donut oranda flavors — chocolate, cookies and cream, matcha, hwang cheese — at ₩3,500 each for the road. The three-layer mareung oranda offers great volume and value, and matcha came out as the favorite donut flavor.

Wandering around Jeju Dongmun Market, there's every kind of snack and food you could want while traveling. This time I had a craving for something sweet, so I stopped by "Cheongchuni Oranda." I'll share how to find the shop easily and what I tried.

## Cheongchuni Oranda location and hours

- ⏰ Hours: Daily 09:00–20:00

Dongmun Market has several entrances, lots of stalls, and a lot of people, so it can be confusing on your first visit. But Cheongchuni Oranda is easy to find — just go in through Gate 8-1, in front of the compact car parking lot.

## Tasting before you choose

Go in through Gate 8-1 and head down a little to the right — you'll see an orange sign. They set up a tasting table right outside the shop so you can try several kinds of oranda before deciding, which means there's basically no way to pick wrong. I got to sample the plain oranda, the nut oranda, and the mareung (garlic), and the mareung completely won me over. With so many types to try, it's great being able to pick exactly what suits your taste haha.

The shop had all kinds of oranda on display — from the plain kind to donut oranda in several flavors, so it was easy to pick according to taste.

## What I ordered and the prices

- Cheongchuni Oranda mareung – ₩12,000
- Donut oranda in chocolate, cookies and cream, matcha, hwang cheese – ₩3,500 each

Mareung is the Jeju dialect word for garlic. I picked the mareung as a snack to eat back at the room, and chose four donut oranda flavors to try one by one while on the move.

### Mareung oranda — perfect as a gift too

The mareung is, in my opinion, the best — highly recommend! It's a flavor anyone, any age, would love, so it would make a perfect gift. You know how it is when you're heading home after a Jeju trip and agonizing over gifts — something too cheap feels awkward, but something pricey feels like a burden. This is exactly the kind of tasty, good-value snack to bring home for family and friends. It also comes pre-cut into easy-to-eat pieces, so it's simple to enjoy.

### A three-layer thickness

The generous portion was another great thing about it. Looking at it, you might think "how is this a lot," but it's actually three layers stacked together! In person, one piece is really thick. As you eat, you peel off layer by layer, which was totally satisfying! With three layers stacked, the value for money is pretty great, haha. The owner said the mareung keeps for a month at room temperature, and since it looked like such a big portion I figured that was a relief — but once I started eating, I couldn't stop, haha.

The sweet oranda gets a boost of garlic flavor, making it something kids and adults alike would enjoy. I think it would be especially great as a beer snack. If you've had dinner and are too full for late-night chicken, this mareung would be perfect instead. Pair it with a cold beer back at the room after a day of sightseeing, and it becomes a simple but satisfying snack.

## Four donut oranda flavors, for snacking in the car

I picked four donut oranda flavors — chocolate, cookies and cream, matcha, and hwang cheese. These would be perfect for a coastal drive or any car ride. You can keep them in the car or your bag and snack on them whenever you get hungry, which makes them great for travel. On hot days the toppings can melt, so refrigeration is recommended — just take them out 3 hours before eating for the best taste, for reference :)

### Chocolate

Such a cute-looking donut oranda — kids would really love it. Chocolate is a flavor that's impossible not to like. I had it while driving and getting drowsy, and the sweet, nutty taste really hit the spot.

### Cookies and cream

The cookies and cream was so good I finished it in no time, haha. This one was especially delicious paired with iced Americano. Sipping coffee alongside it woke me right up and got me safely to my destination~

Cute, appetizing-looking treats, and genuinely tasty on top of that — I wanted to gift these to my young nieces and nephews. They'd be a great gift for any friends with kids.

### Matcha

The matcha donut oranda was really my kind of thing — the sweet, nutty flavor of the oranda combined with matcha was just great. I wish I'd bought more, honestly. The matcha flavor isn't overly sweet, and its distinct aroma blends really well with the oranda, making it my favorite of the four. On the first bite you get the crisp, nutty texture of the oranda, then the matcha lingers subtly afterward — I really loved that. If you're looking for a snack to pair with coffee or tea, matcha is the one I'd recommend first.

## A good gift idea from Jeju

Oranda combined with other ingredients has become a trendy snack in both looks and taste! I think it's something anyone would enjoy — adults, teens, twenty-somethings, even kids. Gift boxes are available for purchase, so if you're looking for a tasty, low-pressure gift for family or friends after your Jeju trip, why not consider this? If you can't pack any due to flight timing, they also sell through their Smart Store online. Next time I'm at Dongmun Market, I'll definitely stop by again for the mareung and matcha. If you're looking for snacks or gifts at Jeju Dongmun Market, give Cheongchuni Oranda a try :)
