The Hyeonseoni Combo Set brings together tteokbokki, fish cakes, gimbap, sundae, offal, and assorted fritters, with medium-spicy sauce made for dipping. Verdict: a filling, satisfying spread when you want several Korean snack-bar favorites at once. ## Good to know - **Location**: 112 Namdaemun-ro, 1F, Jung-gu, Seoul, South Korea (next to Mega Coffee); 68 m from Euljiro 1(il)-ga Station Exit 3 - **Hours**: Weekdays 10:40–21:00 - **Closed**: Every Saturday and Sunday - **How to order**: Order at the kiosk near the entrance - **Self-service bar**: Pickled radish, spoons, chopsticks, and bowls *as written by the visitor on Sep 12, 2026* ![Visitor information for Hyeonseoni-ne Cheonggye Instant Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-01-spcrm-900.webp) ## Location and ordering at Hyeonseoni-ne Cheonggye Instant Branch 🏠 Location 112 Namdaemun-ro, 1F, Jung-gu, Seoul (next to Mega Coffee) 68 m from Euljiro 1(il)-ga Station Exit 3 ⏰ Hours Weekdays 10:40–21:00 Regularly closed every Saturday Regularly closed every Sunday Today, I visited Hyeonseoni-ne Cheonggye Instant Branch in Jung-gu. The bright red sign was visible from afar, so it was easy to find 👀 If you love tteokbokki (spicy stir-fried rice cakes), the sign alone is enough to start making you hungry 😂 ![Red sign for Hyeonseoni-ne Cheonggye Instant Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-02-6u9ro-900.webp) I checked out the menu outside first 👀 From tteokbokki to fish cakes, fritters, gimbap (seaweed rice rolls), and sundae (Korean blood sausage), it had just about everything you expect at a Korean snack bar 😋 Ordering individual items would be great too, but I wanted to try a bit of everything, so the set menus kept catching my eye. ![Korean snack-bar menu information outside the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-03-1bp6h-900.webp) You can order at the kiosk near the entrance 😊 We wanted to taste lots of things at once, so we ordered the Hyeonseoni Combo Set. It feels a little disappointing to come to a Korean snack bar and leave after having only tteokbokki, right? We put together a proper order, then headed inside 🚶♂️ ![Kiosk ordering area at the entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-04-1gl5p-900.webp) ![Entrance to Hyeonseoni-ne Cheonggye Instant Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-05-moloa-900.webp) After ordering, we went inside 😊 There were more tables than I expected, and the open kitchen was right there, giving it that lively Korean snack-bar atmosphere. Watching the food being prepared as soon as our order went in had my anticipation rising already 😆 ![Restaurant interior with tables and an open kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-06-zokje-900.webp) ![Tables inside Hyeonseoni-ne Cheonggye Instant Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-07-1tab2-900.webp) The self-service bar has pickled radish, spoons, chopsticks, and bowls 😊 ![Self-service bar with pickled radish and utensils](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-08-1awae-889.webp) You can take what you need yourself, and since I tend to eat quite a lot of pickled radish with tteokbokki, I grabbed plenty 😆 Have a bite of spicy tteokbokki, then a bite of pickled radish, and you can quietly repeat that forever 😂 ![Hyeonseoni Combo with tteokbokki, sundae, and fritters](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-09-r0sy9-1200.webp) ## A full table of the Hyeonseoni Combo Set After a short wait, the Hyeonseoni Combo Set arrived and filled the table 😍 With fritters, fish cakes, gimbap, tteokbokki, and sundae all appearing at once, it looked filling just sitting there. The moment it landed on the table, today's meal already felt like a success 😆 Let's try it one item at a time. ![A full table of the Hyeonseoni Combo Set](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-10-1rhjf-900.webp) ### How spicy is the medium-spicy wheat-rice-cake tteokbokki? I started with the tteokbokki 🌶️ It came with wheat rice cakes and fish cakes, and you can choose the spice level when ordering. ![Tteokbokki with wheat rice cakes and fish cakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-11-pxosx-900.webp) ![Wheat-rice-cake tteokbokki with selectable spice level](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-12-emg1m-900.webp) We ordered medium-spicy. At first it seemed manageable, but the heat slowly built as we kept eating 🔥 The sauce had soaked nicely into the chewy wheat rice cakes, so I kept reaching for more. Tteokbokki is such a strange food—why do I keep eating it when it's spicy? 😂 ![Chewy wheat-rice-cake tteokbokki soaked in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-13-x25sg-900.webp) ![Medium-spicy tteokbokki](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-14-1ll7i-900.webp) The fish cakes were really tender, and the broth was clean and refreshing 😊 Taking a spoonful of broth here and there while eating the tteokbokki felt like it reset my palate. Especially when the heat started building, one sip of fish-cake broth had me ready for battle again 😆 ![Tender fish cakes and fish-cake broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-15-6049f-900.webp) ![Fish cakes eaten with tteokbokki](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-16-yvkap-900.webp) I also tried the gimbap, and it paired quite well with the spicy tteokbokki. It's like the tteokbokki attacks, then the gimbap calms things down a little 😂 ![Gimbap served alongside tteokbokki](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-17-1t6xo-900.webp) ### How are the sundae and offal served? You can't leave out sundae either 😋 ![Sundae included in the combo set](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-18-1j4q9-900.webp) ![Sundae with liver, lung, and offal](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-19-mo6ok-900.webp) Along with the sundae, the set included liver, lung, and other offal, so we could sample a good variety. The sundae was chewy and the offal mild, and both were tasty lightly dipped in the tteokbokki sauce. When you're having Korean snack-bar food, having sundae too somehow makes it feel like you've had a proper meal 😆 ![Sundae and offal eaten with salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-20-1sf6k-900.webp) The sundae and offal were good on their own, but salt was provided separately too 😊 A light dip in salt brought out their mild flavor even more. Liver can be a little dry in texture, but dipping it in just a tiny bit of salt made it much tastier 😋 ![Gim-mari, dumpling, squid, and sweet-potato fritters](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-21-h40eb-900.webp) ![Assorted fritters](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-22-1o0xg-900.webp) ### Fritters dipped in tteokbokki sauce Next up: fritters 😆 The selection included gim-mari (seaweed noodle rolls), dumplings, squid, and sweet potato. I liked that it wasn't just one type, so we could try a variety. The crisp coating made them delicious on their own, but with tteokbokki sauce right next to them, it was hard to just pass it by 😎 ![Fritters served with tteokbokki sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-23-14snu-900.webp) The fritters were definitely better soaked in the tteokbokki sauce than eaten plain 😍 Once the spicy-sweet sauce soaked into the crispy fritters, they felt like an entirely different dish. Especially the gim-mari—the moment it hit the tteokbokki sauce, game over 😆 ![In-store review event information](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine-24-jopf8-900.webp) ## Review event to check before visiting There was also a notice about a review event posted on one side of the restaurant 😊 Leave a review and you can receive tteokbokki fritters or a savory mayo rice ball, though the item offered differs a little between Google and Naver reviews. If you visit, it would be good to check which menu item comes with each review before joining in 😆 Eat well, leave a review, and get a complimentary menu item too—at this point, isn't that Korean snack-bar investing? 😂 ## Where it is - Hyeonseoni-ne Cheonggye Instant Branch (현선이네 청계즉석점) - 112 Namdaemun-ro, 1F, Jung-gu, Seoul, South Korea (서울특별시 중구 남대문로 112 1층, 메가커피 옆) - 서울특별시 중구 남대문로 112 1층 (메가커피 옆) - 37.5671291, 126.9830312 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%98%84%EC%84%A0%EC%9D%B4%EB%84%A4%20%EC%B2%AD%EA%B3%84%EC%A6%89%EC%84%9D%EC%A0%90/@37.5671291,126.9830312,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@menu-between-stops/cheonggyecheon-bunsik-combo-hyeonseonine/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
