The writer visited with her husband and ordered Stella draft beer and cheese kimchijeon (cheese kimchi pancake), and also noticed the 12 Wine Ladder Game for wine beginners and private rooms. Wine Joomak Chacha is an easy place to enjoy even if you pick draft beer over wine. ## Good to know - **Location**: About a 1-minute walk from Exit 3 of Yeouido Station - **Wine selection**: Reportedly around 100 varieties on offer - **Wine-picking program**: 12 Wine Ladder Game - **Space**: Private rooms available - **Ordered**: Stella draft beer, cheese kimchijeon (cheese kimchi pancake) *as written by the visitor on Sep 13, 2026* ![Exterior view of Wine Joomak Chacha in Yeouido](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-01-1v3f5-900.webp) My husband and I went back to Yeouido for the first time in a while — it's not far from home. Usually when we're in Yeouido we just grab a meal, hit a café, or have a quick drink. This time we wanted something a bit different, and Wine Joomak Chacha Yeouido Station Branch caught my eye. With a name like that, I figured it was a dedicated wine spot, and what really got my attention was the corkage-free policy for wine in Yeouido. If you love wine, "corkage free" alone is pretty tempting, right? So I went to check it out with my husband. ## How close is it to Exit 3 of Yeouido Station, really? Wine Joomak Chacha Yeouido Station Branch is about a 1-minute walk from Exit 3 of Yeouido Station, so finding it the first time was completely stress-free. No long walk after leaving the station — great for an after-work meetup in Yeouido or just a casual drink. Since Yeouido isn't far from our place either, it was also convenient to get to by public transit without bothering with a car. ![Entrance of Wine Joomak Chacha near Yeouido Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-02-1a6mc-900.webp) ## A relaxed vibe for food and drinks Walking in, the atmosphere was better than I'd expected. ![Interior atmosphere of Wine Joomak Chacha](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-03-1794s-900.webp) ![Interior where guests enjoy food and drinks](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-04-1y1bk-m-900.webp) ![Relaxed interior of Wine Joomak Chacha](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-05-n6ex9-900.webp) ![Indoor seating area at Wine Joomak Chacha](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-06-1dxiy-900.webp) Instead of the dim, intimidating wine-bar feel, it had a comfortable atmosphere for eating a meal while enjoying a drink — the kind of place someone who doesn't know much about wine could still walk into easily. ![Comfortable dining space at Wine Joomak Chacha](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-07-zept5-900.webp) Since we'd made a reservation, we were shown to our reserved table. There are also private rooms, which would be great for company dinners or group gatherings. ![Reserved seating and private room area](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-08-w1x13-900.webp) ## An easy way for wine beginners to choose The main reason we came was the corkage-free wine deal in Yeouido. Wine Joomak Chacha reportedly stocks around 100 varieties of wine. If you're a wine lover, that range alone is a plus, and the prices are more reasonable than expected, so wine doesn't have to feel intimidating. Honestly, I'm not that knowledgeable about wine, and when there are too many options it can actually make choosing harder. There's a fun program for people like me — the 12 Wine Ladder Game. It's a system where a few questions guide you to a wine that suits your taste, so you don't need to know wine names or varietals to pick something confidently. I liked that people who are trying wine for the first time, or don't drink it often, can figure out their preferences while having fun with it. And add corkage-free on top of that — isn't that a genuine win for wine lovers? ![Information on the wide wine selection](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-09-1yz6d-900.webp) ## Stella draft beer and cheese kimchijeon instead of wine That said, we went with Stella draft beer instead of wine. We actually like draft beer more than wine, haha. We came because of the corkage-free wine talk, but in the end we picked based on our own taste and went for beer. Looking at the menu, though, it turned out to be a great fit for beer lovers like us too. I expected only wine-pairing snacks — usually you think of cheese or charcuterie at a wine spot — but the menu actually had a wide range of Korean dishes, from doenjang risotto to tteokbokki. ![Menu featuring Korean dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-10-1mwru-900.webp) ![Draft beer and cheese kimchijeon near Yeouido Station, Wine Joomak Chacha](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-11-1v550-900.webp) It wasn't just food meant for wine — there were dishes that go great with beer too, so as people who prefer beer over wine, it was easy to find something for us. What we ordered that day was cheese kimchijeon (cheese kimchi pancake). Kimchijeon really goes well with draft beer, so the moment I saw it on the menu I knew we had to try it. ![Order of Stella draft beer and cheese kimchijeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-12-aa3lg-1200.webp) ![Cheese kimchijeon that pairs well with draft beer](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-13-g3w6h-900.webp) The Stella draft beer arrived, and it was genuinely so good. Really cold, clean taste. It was so good we ended up ordering a few more glasses... ![The ordered Stella draft beer](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-14-4g1g0-900.webp) ![Cold, clean-tasting draft beer](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-15-1665c-900.webp) After a short wait, our cheese kimchijeon arrived. ![The ordered cheese kimchijeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-16-t1pr0-900.webp) It came with pickled radish and baek-kimchi (white kimchi) to go along with it. ![Cheese kimchijeon served with pickled radish and white kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-17-uakx3-900.webp) What caught my eye first was the cheese on top of the kimchijeon — there was more of it than I expected, and it added a nice savory flavor alongside the pancake. Best of all, the pancake itself was fried up nice and crispy. The salty kick of kimchijeon combined with the cheese's savoriness paired really well with the draft beer. ![Crispy kimchijeon topped generously with cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon-18-1dxwh-900.webp) ## Why it worked even not knowing wine, even preferring beer What I realized on this visit is that despite the name Wine Joomak Chacha, it's not a place only for wine experts. They sell around 100 kinds of wine, but there's also a program for first-timers, and the menu isn't limited to wine pairings — you can choose based on your own taste, which I liked. For anyone looking for corkage-free wine in Yeouido, being able to bring your own favorite bottle and enjoy it with food is really great too. And for people like us who prefer draft beer over wine, it was totally fine to just pick beer-friendly dishes and enjoy a relaxed meal-plus-drinks session! What I liked most, though, was the location — about a 1-minute walk from Exit 3 of Yeouido Station, so it's easy to get to, and the atmosphere is comfortable enough for drinks with friends or a date with a partner. It also seems great for Yeouido office workers looking for a company dinner spot!! And if you love wine but get tired of only drinking whatever a wine bar happens to sell, or you have a specific bottle at home you've been wanting to open, the corkage-free option here is worth taking advantage of. ## Where it is - Wine Joomak Chacha Yeouido Station Branch (와인주막차차 여의도역점) - 37 Gukjegeumyung-ro 2-gil, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, South Korea (Estrenue 2F) - 서울특별시 영등포구 국제금융로2길 37 에스트레뉴 2층 - 37.5229166, 126.9241238 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%99%80%EC%9D%B8%EC%A3%BC%EB%A7%89%EC%B0%A8%EC%B0%A8%20%EC%97%AC%EC%9D%98%EB%8F%84%EC%97%AD%EC%A0%90/@37.5229166,126.9241238,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@late-supper-glass/yeouido-stella-cheese-kimchi-jeon/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
