The writer ordered instant tteokbokki for two at ₩22,000 with Coolpis and bong-eomuk (fish cake skewers), enjoying the yaki-mandu (fried dumplings) inside two ways — crispy first, then soaked soft in the broth. A nostalgic, satisfying bowl that earned a promise to come back. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–21:00 - **Location**: IFC Mall basement level 2, next to GS25 convenience store toward the subway exit - **Ordering method**: Kiosk - **Instant tteokbokki for 2**: ₩22,000 - **Coolpis**: ₩1,500 - **Review event**: Fried snacks, rice balls - **Self-serve bar**: Soy sauce, salt, pickled radish, etc. *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* Today I want to introduce a tteokbokki (spicy rice cake) spot near Yeouido's The Hyundai Seoul! I really... I was craving instant tteokbokki so badly that I went looking, and it turned out to taste so nostalgic and delicious that I have to recommend it!! ## Hyeonseonine Premium IFC Mall Branch hours and location - Hours: Daily 11:00–21:00 - Location: 23 Yeouido-dong, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul (IFC Mall basement level 2) ## How to get to Hyeonseonine in Yeouido ![Exterior of Hyeonseonine Premium on basement level 2 of IFC Mall](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-01-fg9io-900.webp) ![Entrance sign of Hyeonseonine Premium IFC Mall Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-02-16hxh-1200.webp) If it's your first time heading to Hyeonseonine in Yeouido, it can be really confusing! Honestly... I even ended up calling the store, total chaos... so confusing ㅜ ![View of the path to Hyeonseonine from the basement level 2 corridor of IFC Mall](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-03-1rokr-900.webp) ![Hyeonseonine Premium location next to the GS25 convenience store](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-04-n6scm-900.webp) To get to Hyeonseonine in Yeouido, head to IFC Mall's basement level 2, walk out toward the subway entrance, and it's right next to the GS25 convenience store!! ## 20 years of history, starting from a street cart in 2004 ![Sign describing Hyeonseonine's 20-year history since starting in 2004](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-05-zesak-900.webp) It started as a street cart in 2004 and has carried on for 20 years, apparently becoming a symbol of Yongsan! They've now expanded to directly-run branches, but there doesn't seem to be much difference with Hyeonseonine Premium. Same delicious food, same friendly service, same philosophy of keeping things clean! ## Inside the restaurant — a decent date spot? ![Interior of Hyeonseonine Premium with closely packed tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-06-pk1a4-900.webp) ![Seating and table arrangement at Hyeonseonine's IFC Mall branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-07-h0vov-900.webp) The interior is on the small side, but there were a lot of tables!! If your girlfriend likes instant tteokbokki, I'd recommend it as a date spot haha ## Kiosk ordering and the review event ![Order kiosk at Hyeonseonine](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-08-75u6k-900.webp) ![Sign for the fried snack and rice ball review event](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-09-1ubiw-900.webp) You order at the kiosk, and they had a review event running for fried snacks and rice balls!

Can't skip the broth either haha ## Instant tteokbokki — an apron is a must ![Instant tteokbokki bubbling on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-16-15p2c-966.webp) ![Pot of instant tteokbokki at a rolling boil](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-17-324sg-900.webp) Bubbling away ,,,, I honestly lost count of how many times I said 'this looks so good' just watching it ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The sauce splatters a lot as it boils, so I really recommend wearing an apron :) ![Close-up of the bubbling tteokbokki sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-18-18nee-900.webp) ![Yaki-mandu inside the instant tteokbokki](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-19-6tmdz-900.webp) ![Picking up a broth-soaked yaki-mandu](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-20-2tz0g-900.webp) ### Yaki-mandu (fried dumplings), crispy then soft There are yaki-mandu in there too!!!!!!!!! Soaked in the broth, that crispy-turned-soggy flavor, you know it ㅜ so good. We pulled them out one at a time — ate the first crispy, then let the rest soak until soft ㅋㅋㅋㅋ that way you get both flavors! ![Jjolmyeon and cabbage added into the instant tteokbokki](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-21-1pa26-900.webp) ### Jjolmyeon (chewy cold noodles) and cabbage And there's jjolmyeon and cabbage too, which I love — the jjolmyeon really goes so well ㅜㅜ and the sweet cabbage is the perfect finishing touch! ## Country of origin ![Country of origin label showing mostly domestic sourcing](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two-22-1hvl3-m-900.webp) Most of the ingredients were labeled as domestically sourced haha. That gave me even more trust in this place! I'm satisfied, so I think I'll be back. ## Where it is - Hyeonseonine Premium IFC Mall Branch (현선이네 프리미엄 IFC몰점) - 10 Gukjegeumyung-ro, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, South Korea (IFC Mall basement level 2) - 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/@seoul-lunchbox-lid/yeouido-ifc-mall-instant-tteokbokki-two/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
