It works for lunch or dinner, and on weekends it looks great for a second or third round of drinks! I went on a weekday evening, and while I ate, solo diners and families kept coming in, and delivery order alerts kept going off. It's already a well-known gukbap place around Mapo and Gongdeok 👍 ![Bosseung Hoegwan Mapo Branch, open 24 hours](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-04-1s582-900.webp) ## Is there plenty of seating at Bosseung Hoegwan Mapo Branch?

If you like a glass of soju with your gukbap, try Bosseung Hoegwan when you're drinking in Mapo 💗 Every dish looked like something I wanted to try. ![Anju menu at Bosseung Hoegwan Mapo Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-13-r97bm-900.webp) ## Eating solo: the Bosseung Hoegwan sundaeguk set for one The sundaeguk set for one comes with the soup plus a taster of sundae (Korean blood sausage) and suyuk. I wanted a full belly, so even though I was alone I ordered the great-value set for one. Sundaeguk normally comes with dadaegi (seasoned chili paste) mixed in, but I'm a creamy-white-broth person, so I asked them to leave it out! ![Sundaeguk set for one ordered without dadaegi at Bosseung Hoegwan](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-14-10n3z-900.webp) ![Sundaeguk with creamy white broth at Bosseung Hoegwan](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-15-49xnp-900.webp) The set comes with sundae, head meat and suyuk, so even alone I got to taste everything 😋 One bowl of sundaeguk usually leaves me wanting a little more, so eating this generously was very satisfying, and of course it was super tasty haha. ![Taster of sundae, head meat and suyuk in the set for one](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-16-1h0oe-900.webp) ![Full table of the Bosseung Hoegwan sundaeguk set for one](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-17-ic8e2-900.webp) Sundaeguk loaded with garlic chives on a rainy day..💗 The soup here is packed with ingredients, so I could enjoy both the meat and the sundae to my heart's content. ![Bosseung Hoegwan sundaeguk topped with plenty of garlic chives](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-18-16zhj-900.webp) ![Sundaeguk packed with meat and sundae](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-19-1vzmm-900.webp) ## Is the ₩4,000 myeongtae hoe-muchim (spicy pollock salad) worth adding? The myeongtae hoe-muchim (spicy seasoned raw pollock) is a ₩4,000 side, and if you want to enjoy your sundaeguk even more, add it! I thought a ₩4,000 portion would be small, but it was big enough for two people, and eaten with the suyuk, the flavor really came alive 🫠 ![Myeongtae hoe-muchim side dish at Bosseung Hoegwan](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-20-crrwm-900.webp) ![Myeongtae hoe-muchim eaten with suyuk](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-21-1sp2b-900.webp) ![Generous portion of ₩4,000 myeongtae hoe-muchim](https://img.superchart.com/images/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side/mapo-sundae-gukbap-pollack-side-22-xg6v7-900.webp) ## Verdict on Bosseung Hoegwan Mapo Branch When the rainy season kills your appetite, try Bosseung Hoegwan Mapo Branch!
