# Hongdae bar with 120-seat group booking, private rooms: Kkoko Land - By Dohee (https://superchart.com/en/@meal-margin-seoul/) - Written Sep 8, 2026 - Local places › Bars › Mapo, Seoul - Sponsored: This post was written after a sponsored visit to the venue. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@meal-margin-seoul/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@meal-margin-seoul/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/index.md) ## In short Kkoko Land is a chicken and beer bar in Mapo, Seoul, near Hongik University, with an outdoor-market vibe, group rentals for up to 120 people, and private rooms for 6 to 8. The writer tried the signature charcoal-grilled chicken neck (seasoned), slushy-ice makguksu (buckwheat noodles), and fried chicken gizzards with Kirin draft beer. A solid pick in Hongdae for group gatherings or wedding-invitation meetups. ## Good to know - **Address**: 18 Wausan-ro 19-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 1st-2nd floor (near Hongik Univ., Sangsu, Hapjeong stations) - **Hours**: Weekdays 16:00-02:00, weekends 12:00-02:00 - **Regular holiday**: None - **Parking**: No parking; use nearby paid lots - **Seating**: Group seating, reservations available, high chairs available, full venue rental up to 120 people - **Rooms**: Private rooms for 6 to 8 people - **Other**: Separate smoking area; stairs only (difficult for strollers/wheelchairs) *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* ![Main photo of Kkoko Land, a Hongdae outdoor-market-style bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-01-1uo6g-1200.webp) Hi, this is Gurime, your neighborhood drinker. I heard a new chicken place opened up in my home turf of Hongdae, so I rushed over with Uyu to check it out. Let me introduce a Hongdae bar that's great for groups while keeping that outdoor-market feel, a place that shows baseball games or the World Cup on screen, and where the barbecue chicken neck is genuinely delicious. ## Kkoko Land's location and hours ![Kkoko Land's detailed information sign](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-02-uuwwt-900.webp) - Address: 18 Wausan-ro 19-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 1st-2nd floor (near Hongik Univ., Sangsu, Hapjeong stations) - Hours: Weekdays 16:00-02:00 / Weekends 12:00-02:00, no regular holiday - Parking: No parking; use nearby paid lots - Group seating, reservations available, high chairs available ![Kkoko Land's menu, mostly fried dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-03-nwcke-900.webp) The menu, as you can see, is mostly the kind of fried dishes you'd expect at a beer bar. ![Entrance stairs and giraffe doll at the shop entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-04-mhxio-900.webp) You have to go up a staircase to get in. Strollers or wheelchairs would have a hard time. A big giraffe doll greets you at the entrance. ## The interior vibe and 120-person group rental ![Full view of Kkoko Land's spacious main hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-05-bprye-900.webp) The interior is massive. They say you can rent out the whole place for up to 120 people. ![Spacious seating area suitable for group rentals](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-06-16icq-900.webp) ![Private room space up a half-flight of stairs](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-07-1dowk-900.webp) There's a private room space up a half-flight of stairs too, which looked useful for group gatherings or wedding-invitation meetups on their own. The room fits a minimum of 6 to 8 people. ![Outdoor-market-style seating area](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-08-186x0-900.webp) There are seats that fully capture that outdoor-market feel, plus seats further inside, so you can pick whichever suits your mood. ![Clean restroom with a sink in each stall](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-09-xkf9m-900.webp) ![Interior of the newly renovated restroom](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-10-18rfs-900.webp) ### Restrooms and smoking area One thing that really surprised me was the restroom. Maybe because the place just opened, but it's very clean and well kept. I love that each stall has its own sink. ![Separate smoking area apart from the seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-11-19kqi-m-900.webp) There's a separate smoking area too, nicely set apart from the seating. Several high chairs are available as well. ## Welcome drink and basic side snack ![Orange juice served as the welcome drink](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-12-4w3gg-900.webp) Now let's get into the menu properly. As soon as you sit down, they give you a welcome drink — orange juice. I recommend ordering a drink to mix in with it, haha. ![Chicken-leg-shaped cracker served as the basic side snack](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-13-12k8o-900.webp) True to the name Kkoko Land, the basic side snack is a chicken-leg-shaped cracker. It had a bit of spice mixed in, which I liked. ## Kirin draft beer ![A refreshingly cold pour of Kirin draft beer](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-14-1pppm-900.webp) I had a cold Kirin draft. It's great that they have three kinds of draft beer. The Kirin was cold and crisp — really nice. ## Signature charcoal-grilled chicken neck (seasoned) ![Signature charcoal-grilled seasoned chicken neck](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-15-18cn8-900.webp) It took quite a while to arrive, so I was pretty hungry by the time it did — and wow, it was really good! Boneless, so it was easy to eat. ![Boneless seasoned grilled chicken neck](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-16-17niu-900.webp) The charcoal aroma really comes through, with a subtle but distinct spiciness and a sweet sauce flavor that just calls for a drink. The chicken was tender too, so the texture was great. ![Salad and sweet potato and corn served alongside the chicken neck](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-17-1dhwj-900.webp) The side salad and sweet potato and corn that come with it help balance out the spice, and the combo is so good you keep reaching for more. ## Amazing slushy-ice makguksu ![Makguksu piled high with slushy ice](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-18-19vh8-900.webp) The makguksu (buckwheat noodles) arrived with an incredible visual — piled high with slushy ice. They give you disposable gloves. It's so cold that mixing it makes your hands go numb~ ![Slushy-ice makguksu mixed with gloves on](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-19-1qby0-900.webp) If you need something refreshing and you're visiting with a group, I'd recommend ordering this. ## Fried chicken gizzards ![Steaming hot fried chicken gizzards](https://img.superchart.com/images/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland-20-1pi2z-900.webp) Since I wanted to eat a bit more, I ordered a fried dish right away. The chicken gizzards came up still steaming hot. They're really good at frying here. The texture was plump and chewy, which made it fun to eat. ## Final verdict: if you're sick of regular fried chicken, try Kkoko Land Hongdae never had a bar this spacious and comfortable that still gives you that outdoor-market feel — I'm glad one finally exists. It would be great for hosting group gatherings here too. And of course, definitely order the signature dish. The chicken neck was so good I want to come back and eat it again! Plenty of families come here too, and it's perfect even if you just want to swing by for chicken. Bonus points for the spotless restroom. ## Where it is - Kkoko Land (꼬꼬랜드) - 18 Wausan-ro 19-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 1st-2nd floor - 서울특별시 마포구 와우산로19길 18 1,2층 - 37.5513182, 126.9221635 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%BC%AC%EA%BC%AC%EB%9E%9C%EB%93%9C/@37.5513182,126.9221635,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@meal-margin-seoul/hongdae-group-booking-yajang-kkokkoland/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
