# Uijeongbu spicy sundae soup for solo diners: Yetnal Gyeongseong - By Yeodam (https://superchart.com/en/@map-of-meals/) - Written Sep 14, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi - Sponsored: This review is based on a meal provided by the restaurant. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@map-of-meals/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@map-of-meals/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/index.md) ## In short Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch is a sundaeguk (Korean blood sausage soup) restaurant with 60 years of tradition that opened on Dongil-ro in Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi on September 2. The extra-large eolkeun sundae (spicy blood sausage soup) costs 14,000 won and arrives in a portion big enough to regret ordering, and the opening celebration added a free tasting of chapssal sundae (glutinous rice blood sausage). For a filling solo meal near Eulji University Hospital, Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk is worth the trip. ## Good to know - **Location**: 1st floor, 778 Dongil-ro, Uijeongbu-si, Gyeonggi-do - **Hours**: 10:00 - 22:00 - **Parking**: Lot in front of the restaurant - **Sundaeguk (sausage only)**: 11,000 won - **Eolkeun sundae (sausage only, extra-large)**: 14,000 won - **Chapssal sundae tasting portion**: 3,500 won - **Uncooked takeout**: 16,000 won - **Opening date**: September 2 *as written by the visitor on Sep 14, 2026* I visited Gyeongseong Sundaeguk in Nokyang, Uijeongbu. ## Where is Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch, and what are the hours? Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch is at 778 Dongil-ro, 1st floor, Uijeongbu-si, Gyeonggi-do, and it's open from 10:00 to 22:00.

Available in the lot in front of the restaurant ![Exterior of Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch on Dongil-ro, Uijeongbu](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-01-14d5l-1200.webp) Gyeongseong Sundaeguk is a brand-new restaurant that opened on September 2. It's not far from Eulji University Hospital, so it's easy to visit, and there's parking right out front too. I don't drive, so I took a bus from the hospital and walked over. On a gloomy day, a soup like sundaeguk (blood sausage soup) hits just right. I went during peak mealtime — I was starving, haha. ![Front view of Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-02-beks4-900.webp) Once you walk in through the entrance, it looks like this ![Inside the entrance of Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-03-27ryl-900.webp) Since it just opened, they're running an event with an old-school lottery draw ![Old-school lottery draw corner for the opening event](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-04-dw6u1-900.webp) ![Opening event signage at the store entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-05-8sz4v-900.webp) Places open every day of the year are rare in Uijeongbu, and this one opens early enough for a late breakfast/lunch. Gyeongseong Sundaeguk has 60 years of tradition behind it, which is reassuring. ![Sign showing daily hours and the 60-year tradition text](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-06-o4463-900.webp) ## What are the dining room and group room like? In the main hall of Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch, the tables have generous spacing so you can sit apart from the next table, and next to the entrance there's a door to a separate group room. We sat roughly in the center. ![Table seating in the main hall of Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-07-y2hun-900.webp) Inside, the table layout has plenty of breathing room. It's far enough from the neighboring tables to eat comfortably. I don't know how everyone finds out about this place, but about 90% of the seats were full. ![Main hall nearly full of customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-08-13a1f-900.webp) In the middle there's a hallway leading to the restroom. The interior is clean since it just opened, but the restroom looks like it's still the one the previous tenant used. ![Hallway leading to the restroom in the center of the store](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-09-elnqz-900.webp) Right as you come in, if you open the big door on the way to the restroom, there's a separate room set up for private group seating. ![Interior of the separate room used for group seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-10-kivxt-900.webp) ![Table in the private group seating room](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-11-punbl-900.webp) Sundaeguk with sesame they grind themselves?! ![Sign about the freshly ground sesame used in-house](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-12-8ba18-900.webp) Even with 60 years of tradition, since it's a newly opened location it's clean and I like that, haha ![Menu board at Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-13-crvh9-900.webp) ## Menu, prices and the free chapssal sundae for the opening At Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch, sundaeguk (sausage only) is 11,000 won, eolkeun sundae (sausage only, extra-large) is 14,000 won, and a chapssal sundae tasting portion is 3,500 won. During the opening event period, they're giving out chapssal sundae for free. - Sundaeguk (sausage only) ₩11,000 - Eolkeun sundae (sausage only, extra-large) ₩14,000 - Chapssal sundae tasting portion ₩3,500 Two servings that feel like three, haha. If you get the uncooked takeout option, you could eat your fill for 16,000 won. They're giving out chapssal sundae for free as an opening event, so once the event ends you might need to leave a review to get it. Wi-Fi connects automatically via QR code too. I really regret ordering the large size... it was way too much food, ugh. ![Self-serve side dish corner near the kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-14-7nxrz-900.webp) ![Toppings and side dishes for self-service](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-15-k5cwm-m-900.webp) ## Are the side dishes self-serve? Near the kitchen, you can freely help yourself to side dishes and toppings. Onion, chili peppers, and kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi) come as standard. ![Standard side dishes: onion, chili peppers, and kkakdugi](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-16-1w46d-900.webp) They also provide kimchi, doenjang (soybean paste), and salted shrimp as standard! There's also perilla seed powder and salt for seasoning. I'm the type who eats it without adding extra seasoning~ ![Seasoning corner with perilla seed powder and salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-17-m3gea-900.webp) ## How big is the extra-large eolkeun sundae portion? Ta-da, the food I ordered arrived. Unless you're truly starving, I'd honestly recommend against the extra-large at Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk... ![The ordered extra-large eolkeun sundae set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-18-1s71z-900.webp) Because the portion is insanely huge... and this is the regular size... Just look at that plump sundae (blood sausage). ![A bowl of sundaeguk packed with plump sundae](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-19-1k0ds-900.webp) And now, as part of the opening event, they gave us a taste of chapssal sundae too? Looked like about 10 pieces. Earlier when we ordered, I heard them tell another table they'd run out, so I thought we wouldn't get any... ![Chapssal sundae given free as part of the opening event](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-20-ttrq3-900.webp) This is the chapssal sundae tasting portion from the menu. Can you see how glossy it looks? If you have a normal appetite, just the sundaeguk alone will probably fill you up. ![Glossy chapssal sundae tasting plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-21-14j7c-900.webp) ## Barley crackers for dessert and other touches for guests Near the entrance of Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch, there are barley crackers set out so you can finish your meal with a little dessert! It had been a while since I'd had barley crackers, and they were delicious — the kind of taste you keep reaching for. ![Barley crackers for dessert near the entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-22-13yd8-900.webp) ![Corner with hair ties for guests](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-23-1ngam-900.webp) ![Phone charger provided for guests in the store](https://img.superchart.com/images/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service-24-bstqb-900.webp) They even have hair ties and phone chargers on hand — a place that really looks out for its guests in small ways. Having a barley cracker with a sip of coffee and patting your full belly afterward — that's the best, haha. If you want a hearty, filling meal in Uijeongbu, especially for solo dining! (Soju plus sundaeguk is unbeatable.) ## Where it is - Yetnal Gyeongseong Sundaeguk Nokyang Branch (옛날경성순대국 녹양점) - 778 Dongil-ro, 1st floor, Uijeongbu-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 의정부시 동일로 778 1층 - 37.7549175, 127.0466847 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%98%9B%EB%82%A0%EA%B2%BD%EC%84%B1%EC%88%9C%EB%8C%80%EA%B5%AD%20%EB%85%B9%EC%96%91%EC%A0%90/@37.7549175,127.0466847,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@map-of-meals/uijeongbu-nogyang-sundaeguk-chalsundae-service/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
