Manggaetteok is a rice cake wrapped one by one in mangge leaves. At Ojo Manggaetteok, the writer tried manggaetteok for the first time, found it properly chewy even when cut with scissors, and watched staff roll the rice cakes into rounds in one corner of the shop. Verdict: the bojagi-wrapped gift set from Ojo Manggaetteok is heavy and packed full of tteok, which makes it a good gift. ## Good to know - **Location**: 1F Hongu Building, 78 Gukjegeumyung-ro, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul (between Yeouido and Saetgang stations) - **Opening hours**: Mon–Sat 08:00–18:00, closed Sundays - **Mixed Gift Set A contents**: 15 manggaetteok in 3 kinds, 4 lotus-leaf yakbap (sweet sticky rice), 4 mugwort injeolmi, 4 apple-roll seolgi (steamed rice cake) - **Ordering**: Pre-orders available; made and sold the same day - **Other items**: Candied walnuts (hodu jeonggwa), yakbap, mugwort tteok, ginger syrup, oranda (puffed rice snack), seolgi rice cakes - **Packaging**: Bojagi cloth gift wrapping; return-gift sets available *as written by the visitor on Aug 3, 2026* If you're hunting for a great tteok (Korean rice cake) shop in Yeouido, I highly recommend Ojo Manggaetteok near Saetgang Station. I tried manggaetteok for the very first time here, and it was so chewy and delicious! Thanks to this place, I'm slowly learning what makes manggaetteok special these days haha ## Where is Ojo Manggaetteok? Between Yeouido and Saetgang stations Ojo Manggaetteok is on the ground floor of Hongu Building, between Yeouido Station and Saetgang Station. ![Exterior of Ojo Manggaetteok on the ground floor of Hongu Building](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-01-ccveb-900.webp) ![Entrance of the tteok shop between Yeouido and Saetgang stations](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-02-jln1u-900.webp) ## What is manggaetteok? Ojo Manggaetteok specializes in handmade manggaetteok. Honestly, I didn't really know what manggaetteok was, so I asked GPT. Apparently it's a rice cake wrapped in smilax (mangae) leaves and steamed, and the famous version has a glutinous rice skin with red bean filling. The leaves are used when steaming because they keep the cakes from sticking together and hold in moisture, which helps them stay moist longer haha Ojo Manggaetteok takes pre-orders, and since all the tteok is made the same day without preservatives, eating it on the day you buy it is the most recommended. ![Display shelves inside Ojo Manggaetteok](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-03-1h6q8-900.webp) ![Inside the handmade manggaetteok shop](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-04-10998-900.webp) ![Display area with tteok made that day](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-05-1rv84-900.webp) ![Information notice in Ojo Manggaetteok](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-06-1x6vg-900.webp) ![Display case inside the manggaetteok shop](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-07-ciiyc-900.webp) ![Tteok product introduction displayed in the shop](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-08-1y2od-900.webp) ![Corner of the shop with pre-order information](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-09-148a0-m-900.webp) ## Menu: gift sets and single items The menu board at Ojo Manggaetteok. There are gift sets, but also plenty of single items, so it seems great for office workers nearby to grab as a snack. Return-gift sets are possible too, so it'd be perfect for handing out to a group! hahaha ![Ojo Manggaetteok menu board and gift set guide](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-10-1328r-900.webp) Ojo Manggaetteok started from a mother's heart, and it's a manggaetteok shop that puts generous care into its ingredients for both health and flavor. Inside the shop, detailed displays explain the products and packaging. ## Bojagi gift wrapping Ojo Manggaetteok wraps its tteok gift sets in beautiful bojagi (traditional wrapping cloth), which makes both the giver and the receiver happy, so it's a great pick for gift sets in Yeouido. ![Tteok gift set wrapped in bojagi cloth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-11-1jeqx-900.webp) The packaging feels so elegant that it would make a lovely gift. In Gyeongsang province, people used to exchange manggaetteok to ask after each other and look after one another's health. Even today, wouldn't anyone love to receive delicious tteok as a gift? haha ![Round manggaetteok being shaped in the shop](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-12-1e7nl-675.webp) ![Candied walnuts made in the shop on display](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-13-v8gi9-900.webp) ![Display shelf with yakbap and mugwort tteok](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-14-1uz4a-900.webp) ## You can watch the tteok being made in the shop At one side of the shop you can watch manggaetteok being made, and the round little cakes looked so cute haha They also sell candied walnuts (hodu jeonggwa) made in the shop. They sell yakbap (sweet rice with nuts and jujubes) and mugwort tteok too, and you can also grab ginger syrup and oranda (a crunchy grain snack) as snacks. Nice! They sell brightly colored seolgi (steamed rice cakes) too, so if you work in Yeouido, it'd be nice to drop by Ojo Manggaetteok and pick up a piece of tteok as a snack. ![Display of brightly colored seolgi rice cakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-15-1bfb5-900.webp) ![Snack corner with ginger syrup and oranda](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-16-1bqox-900.webp) ## Heading home with the gift set On the way home with gift set No. 1 from Ojo Manggaetteok in its lovely bojagi wrapping! It was surprisingly heavy, which really stood out. ![Carrying the bojagi-wrapped gift set No. 1](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-17-rq992-900.webp) Ojo Manggaetteok is a manggaetteok shop made by nature: no coloring, additives or preservatives, and everything is made and sold the same day. Thumbs up! Lunar New Year is far off, but I took one of the templates from the shop anyway haha With its elegant bojagi wrapping, Ojo Manggaetteok makes both the giver and the receiver happy. A camellia flower must be the Ojo Manggaetteok logo! hahaha ![Gift set packaging with the camellia logo](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-18-hboim-900.webp) ![Tteok gift set box with the bojagi untied](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-19-o36nm-900.webp) When you open the box, a nutty tteok aroma greets you, along with detailed instructions on how to enjoy the tteok and how to store it. ![Leaflet on how to enjoy and store the tteok](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-20-yeuvn-900.webp) ## Mixed Gift Set A contents Mixed Gift Set A at Ojo Manggaetteok contains 15 manggaetteok in 3 kinds, 4 lotus-leaf yakbap, 4 mugwort injeolmi (rice cake dusted with soybean powder), and 4 apple-roll seolgi. ![Inside Mixed Gift Set A, packed full of tteok](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-21-1xjtl-1200.webp) No wonder the box was so heavy! It was completely packed with tteok hahaha The manggaetteok come in three kinds with different outside colors, but all of them have domestic red bean filling inside. ![Three kinds of manggaetteok in different colors](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-22-98abc-900.webp) The yakbap, mugwort tteok and seolgi look so delicious too!! ![Lotus-leaf yakbap, mugwort injeolmi and apple-roll seolgi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-23-1dofg-900.webp) ![Close-up of manggaetteok wrapped in smilax leaves](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set-24-plgww-900.webp) ## The texture of the manggaetteok I tried Each piece is wrapped in a smilax leaf, which gives Ojo Manggaetteok a distinctive look. I couldn't wait, so that same evening I took out two kinds of manggaetteok and tried them. They were so springy that even when I cut them with scissors, I could really feel the chewiness. ## Shop info - Ojo Manggaetteok (오조망개떡) - Address: 78 Gukjegeumyung-ro, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, Hongu Building 1F - Hours: Mon–Sat 08:00–18:00 - Closed Sundays ## Where it is - Ojo Manggaetteok (오조망개떡) - 78 Gukjegeumyung-ro, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 영등포구 국제금융로 78 홍우빌딩 1층 - 37.5208743, 126.9313093 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%98%A4%EC%A1%B0%EB%A7%9D%EA%B0%9C%EB%96%A1/@37.5208743,126.9313093,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@menu-light-visits/yeouido-mangaetteok-shop-gift-set/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
