# Yeouido IFC Mall after-work tteokbokki with Coolpis: Hyeonseonine - By Jungmin Yoo (https://superchart.com/en/@seongsu-noon-counter/) - Written Sep 19, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Yeongdeungpo, Seoul - Sponsored: This visit was sponsored by the business. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@seongsu-noon-counter/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@seongsu-noon-counter/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/index.md) ## In short Hyeonseonine Premium IFC Mall Branch is a 20-year-old Korean snack restaurant on level B2 of IFC Mall in Yeouido, Seoul, inside the underground passage of shops. After work the writer met her husband here and ordered the Hyeonseoni Set for 23,000 won in the spicy level — tteokbokki, mixed fried snacks, sundae and gimbap — though the gimbap had sold out and came as rice balls instead. The spicy tteokbokki at Hyeonseonine is only a little hotter than Shin Ramyun, so it went down easily with a cup of Coolpis. ## Good to know - **Location**: 10 Gukjegeumyung-ro, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul — IFC Mall level B2 (shops in the underground passage between The Hyundai Seoul and IFC) - **Hyeonseoni Set**: Tteokbokki + fried snacks + sundae + gimbap, 23,000 won - **À la carte menu**: Tteokbokki, sundae, mini gimbap, mixed fried snacks, fish cake, tuna mayo rice bowl, chicken mayo rice bowl, ramyeon, spicy ramyeon, cheese ramyeon - **Sets and instant menu**: 5 set menus, plus a separate instant tteokbokki (jeukseok tteokbokki) menu - **Spice level**: The spicy level is just a bit hotter than Shin Ramyun; a medium level is also available - **Seating**: Chairs inside the restaurant, and tables with chairs outside - **Self-serve bar**: Bowls, pickled radish and sauces are self-serve - **Review event**: Write a review and get fried rice cake and savory mayo rice balls *as written by the visitor on Sep 19, 2026* ## Where is Hyeonseonine in the Yeouido IFC Mall underground passage? Today I want to introduce Hyeonseonine tteokbokki, one of the well-known spots in the Yeouido The Hyundai/IFC area. My husband and I met up in Yeouido after work and decided to grab a simple dinner before heading home. ![Exterior of Hyeonseonine Premium in the IFC Mall underground passage shops](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-01-f8gli-900.webp) ![Entrance and outdoor tables at Hyeonseonine Premium IFC Mall Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-02-xy9dq-900.webp) This is one of those already-famous franchises! Hyeonseonine tteokbokki. I'd only ever eaten at the original branch before, so this was my first time visiting the Yeouido location. It's located in the underground passage shops of The Hyundai and IFC. There are chairs inside the shop and also tables and chairs outside. Apparently at lunchtime there's always a line! We came in the evening so it was relatively quiet. ![Quiet seating in front of Hyeonseonine in the evening](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-03-1huej-900.webp) ![Outdoor tables and chairs at Hyeonseonine IFC Mall Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-04-1jsg3-900.webp) Here's the inside of the shop~! ![Interior seating at Hyeonseonine Premium IFC Mall Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-05-6kfya-604.webp) ## Hyeonseonine's menu and self-serve bar There's an à la carte menu and a set menu. The à la carte menu includes tteokbokki, sundae (Korean blood sausage), mini gimbap, mixed fried snacks, eomuk (fish cake), tuna mayo rice bowl, chicken mayo rice bowl, ramyeon, spicy ramyeon, and cheese ramyeon. There are about 5 set menus. And there's also an instant menu!! Just think of it as instant tteokbokki you cook at your table~! ![Hyeonseonine menu board listing à la carte, set, and instant menus](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-06-8nblk-792.webp) Whoa, Hyeonseonine tteokbokki has 20 years of history!!! No wonder it's kept its reputation going this long. ![Sign noting Hyeonseonine tteokbokki's 20-year history](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-07-80vzl-900.webp) Bowls, pickled radish, sauces and so on are available self-serve at the bar. ![Self-serve bar with bowls, pickled radish, and sauces at Hyeonseonine](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-08-upz7m-1200.webp) ## Is the 23,000-won Hyeonseoni Set enough for two? We ordered the Hyeonseoni Set! It's made up of tteokbokki + fried snacks + sundae + gimbap for 23,000 won. When it actually came out, the portion was way bigger than I expected!! ![A full spread of the Hyeonseoni Set with tteokbokki, fried snacks, and sundae](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-09-1hsn2-900.webp) ### How spicy is Hyeonseonine's spicy tteokbokki? Let's go through each item one by one!! First, the tteokbokki! You can choose the spicy option. We went with spicy. Just so you know, it's only a bit spicier than Shin Ramyun. If you can't handle spicy food well, order the medium spice instead. ![Hyeonseonine tteokbokki ordered spicy](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-10-pqsga-900.webp) ![Close-up of Hyeonseonine's spicy tteokbokki with plenty of sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-11-lxv3o-900.webp) ### Mixed fried snacks and a free cup of fish cake broth Next up, the fried snacks, plus a free bowl of fish cake broth. The fried snacks were also more generous than I expected. I thought maybe 1-2 pieces would come with a set, but instead there were all kinds of fried snacks — mandu, squid, vegetables, sweet potato...!!! Good good good!!! ![Mixed fried snacks with mandu, squid, vegetables, and sweet potato](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-12-pid7b-900.webp) ![Free fish cake broth served with the fried snack plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-13-7jj48-900.webp) ### Gimbap sold out: rice balls instead The last item is the rice balls. It was originally supposed to be gimbap (seaweed rice roll), but they'd sold out that day so it came as rice balls instead!!! Since I actually prefer rice balls, I was happier with this~!! haha ![Rice balls served in place of gimbap at Hyeonseonine](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-14-ducff-900.webp) ### Sundae sliced to order at Hyeonseonine And finally, sundae (Korean blood sausage)! It's the classic snack-restaurant style sundae, but it was warm, chewy, and really tasty? They slice it fresh and serve it right after you order!!! ![Sundae sliced and served right after ordering](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-15-met49-900.webp) ![Sundae dipped in tteokbokki sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-16-w7ab7-900.webp) We dipped the sundae in the tteokbokki sauce, and dipped the fried snacks in it too~!!! The tteokbokki sauce is really delicious!! I think it'd be great if they sold it separately so we could make Hyeonseonine tteokbokki at home! ![Fried snack dipped in tteokbokki sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-17-1a9as-900.webp) ### Coolpis, the drink that cools the spice My throat was a bit dry so I ordered a Cool Piss soda for the first time in a while~!!haha Snack food really does call for Cool Piss!! And it helps tame the spice too!!!!!! ![A glass of Cool Piss soda ordered alongside the snack food](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner-18-1ulfh-900.webp) They're also running a review event!! Leave a review and you get fried tteokbokki-rice-cake and savory mayo rice balls~!! I hope everyone joins the event and grabs the perk~!! ## Same taste as the main branch — instant tteokbokki next time Hyeonseonine tteokbokki, easy to grab a quick bite, and the Yeouido branch tasted exactly the same as the original branch. As always, it was so, so good~!!! Great for Yeouido office workers to grab a simple lunch, or to try the instant tteokbokki!! Or if you want something quick on your way home from work, stopping by the underground shopping area before heading home works great too~!!!! Next time I visit, I want to try the instant tteokbokki on my way home from work!! The sauce base is so tasty that I bet the instant version will be amazing too, and I plan to add all sorts of extra ingredients (sari) and try more~!!haha ## Where it is - Hyeonseonine Premium IFC Mall Branch (현선이네 프리미엄 IFC몰점) - 10 Gukjegeumyung-ro, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, IFC Mall B2, South Korea - 서울특별시 영등포구 국제금융로 10 IFC몰 지하2층 현선이네프리미엄 - 37.5241142, 126.9253224 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%98%84%EC%84%A0%EC%9D%B4%EB%84%A4%20%ED%94%84%EB%A6%AC%EB%AF%B8%EC%97%84%20IFC%EB%AA%B0%EC%A0%90/@37.5241142,126.9253224,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seongsu-noon-counter/yeouido-ifc-tteokbokki-spicy-set-dinner/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
