You know those days when you desperately crave a steaming hot soup? So today I'm introducing a sundaeguk (blood sausage soup) place near Suji-gu Office Station that will warm both body and soul: Yeonnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Suji-gu Office Station Branch (옛날경성순대국 수지구청역점)! Rich, nutty broth that fills your mouth, generous meat and sundae, a clean interior... it really nails "value, flavor and atmosphere" all at once. Shall we head over together? 🐾

Where is Yeonnal Gyeongseong Suji-gu Office Station Branch, and where do you park?

Yeonnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Suji-gu Office Station Branch is about a 3-minute walk from Exit 2 of Suji-gu Office Station. Super easy to find~ It's inside an alley so it's quiet, and the moment you step in you think, "Yep, this is a good one."

My favorite part was the parking! If you park at the Yongin Lifelong Learning Center public lot across the street, they give you a free parking ticket. Drivers can visit without any worries, so it's perfect for a date or a family meal too!

Opening hours and break time

• Weekdays: 10 a.m. – 9:30 p.m.
• Weekends: 9 a.m. – 9:30 p.m.
• Break time: 3 – 4 p.m.
• Last order: 9 p.m.

I went on a weekend morning, and customers kept coming in from the moment it opened. People looking for hangover relief, families, solo diners, all sorts! It seems this place is already well known among locals.

Is the atmosphere good for solo diners and kids?

The inside is bright and clean, and the tables are spaced widely, so even solo diners won't feel awkward. They also have baby chairs and baby cutlery sets, so family visits are no problem.

I loved these thoughtful little details.

You can also order by table tablet, so there's no need to call a staff member! Systems like this are really handy these days.

Sundaeguk or bone hangover soup? Menu and prices

The two most popular items at Yeonnal Gyeongseong Suji-gu Office Station Branch are the deluxe sundaeguk set (₩15,000) and the bone hangover soup set (₩15,000). Can't decide between sundaeguk and bone hangover soup? I strongly recommend the bone hangover soup set! It comes with two hefty pork bones, plus sundae on the side, so you get to taste both. Basically the perfect combo for greedy people like me, haha!

Basic sundaeguk is ₩10,000, and you can choose "sundae only, meat only or offal only," so you can order to your own taste. That's a nice point too!

Sundaeguk broth and fillings

Let's start with how the sundaeguk looks!

See that broth? Not too clear, not too heavy, just the right thickness. Topped with perilla powder, scallions and chives, it looks hearty just sitting there.

There's plenty of sundae, offal and head meat, so as you dig through the fillings you're suddenly full~ The broth is clean with no gamey smell, and the seasoning was just right even without pepper or seasoned chili paste (dadaegi). It's bewitchingly good, you'll finish the broth first!

Set menu chewy sundae and head meat

The chewy sundae and nutty head meat that come with the set are plated nicely on one dish~ With chives and sesame seeds on top, the presentation is perfect too! Pick up a piece, dip it in salted shrimp (saeujeot), and... mmm, pure happiness in your mouth.

Can you refill side dishes at the self-serve bar?

At Yeonnal Gyeongseong Suji-gu Office Station Branch, you can refill all the basic sides at the self-serve bar: kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi), kimchi, onions, ssamjang (dipping paste), salted shrimp and more! The kkakdugi was totally my style! Sweet and refreshing. It's the best with gukbap (rice soup). I couldn't not refill it~

Is takeout and delivery good too?

The restaurant packs takeout carefully in vacuum packs. It's clean and hygienic, so it's perfect as a gift or for reheating at home. They said a lot goes out for delivery too, and I can see why!

Who I'd recommend it to

• Office workers who want a hearty meal
• People looking for a hangover soup to settle the stomach
• Solo diners who love gukbap
• Families looking for a place to eat out with kids
• Anyone wanting high-quality gukbap for takeout or delivery

Overall verdict and will I go back?

• Generous portions for the price
• Clean interior and comfortable atmosphere
• Odor-free broth plus carefully made fillings
• Friendly system, even with a self-serve bar

It was a place that made me genuinely say "I want to go again." If you're looking for a gukbap restaurant in Suji, don't hesitate, definitely visit Yeonnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Suji-gu Office Station Branch!
