It is only a 2–3 minute walk from Exit 3 of Children's Grand Park Station on Line 7, so it is very easy to reach. Hours: Daily 11:00–20:30 (last order 20:00) Parking: There is no dedicated parking, so I recommend using the nearby Children's Grand Park parking lot. ![Ramen Truck Konkuk University Branch information](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-04-5mukf-900.webp) ![Ramen Truck Konkuk University Branch information](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-05-bnk0f-900.webp) A kiosk at the entrance lets you order your menu and topping options quickly and easily. ![Kiosk menu and topping order](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-06-wr4h5-900.webp) ![Kiosk menu and topping order](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-07-1xppq-900.webp) Inside, there are tables for two to four people as well as plenty of counter seats in front of the kitchen, making it a very comfortable spot for a solo meal or drink after work. ![Tables for two to four people and counter seats](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-08-12pfk-900.webp) ![Counter seats for solo meals and drinks](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-09-1yzeo-900.webp) ## Happy-hour draft beer that washes away after-work fatigue ![Happy-hour Red Rock draft beer](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-10-1ua2j-900.webp) ![Draft beer with an after-work meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-11-1yooi-900.webp) ![Happy-hour draft beer with ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-12-15z2y-900.webp) The first thing to greet me once I sat down was an ice-cold Red Rock draft beer. Thanks to the happy-hour event beginning at 5 p.m., I could knock back a freshly poured glass for the easygoing price of ₩2,000. ![₩2,000 happy-hour draft beer](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-13-1ok84-900.webp) The fizz and slightly bitter hop flavor went down cool and clean, and it felt as if the weariness of the day melted away in an instant. ## Mega Iekei Ramen with deep umami ![Mega Iekei Ramen with rich broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-14-12ig0-900.webp) Yokohama-style Iekei ramen combines rich tonkotsu pork broth with the clean flavor of shoyu (soy sauce), making for a ramen with real depth and impact. I absolutely agree that this is a true ramen hotspot!! The broth was so rich and delicious. ![Iekei ramen with tonkotsu and shoyu flavors](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-15-19m9a-900.webp) The Mega Iekei Ramen arrived with an eye-catching abundance of toppings: chashu pork, nori seaweed, spinach, and a soft-boiled egg (ajitama) piled beautifully across the bowl. ![Ramen topped with chashu, nori, spinach, and soft-boiled egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-16-qt4tg-900.webp) ### Deep, rich broth Rather than adding ground pork fat, the broth is simmered for a long time, giving it a rich, clean oiliness without feeling greasy. It is substantial and bursting with umami, making you feel satisfyingly full from just one sip. ![Hearty ramen broth full of umami](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-17-6xw8i-900.webp) ### Chewy noodles and ajitama The springy noodles soaked up the broth beautifully and had a wonderful chew. The sweet-salty soft-boiled egg, gently seasoned all the way through, simply melted in my mouth. ![Ramen with noodles and ajitama](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-18-180ri-900.webp) ### Refresh your palate with yuzu pickled radish Have some of the tangy yuzu pickled radish served as a basic side dish midway through the meal. It refreshes your palate, so you can enjoy every last bite without getting tired of the flavors. ## Handmade karaage on the side ![Crispy, juicy handmade karaage](https://img.superchart.com/images/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer-19-1y7pi-900.webp) Handmade karaage (Japanese fried chicken) is the side dish that absolutely cannot be left out of a ramen-and-beer pairing. Clearly different from frozen products, it was crispy on the outside and full of tender, juicy meat inside—every bite drew an impressed reaction. Dip it generously into the savory mayonnaise sauce topped with a little shichimi spice, then take a sip of cold draft beer. That is the ultimate comforting pairing, like a reward for making it through the day. For anyone wanting to recharge with a hearty bowl of rich ramen broth and a cold beer, I recommend Ramen Truck Konkuk University Branch near the back gate of Konkuk University and Children's Grand Park Station. ## Where it is - Ramen Truck Konkuk University Branch (라멘트럭 건대점) - 18 Gwangnaru-ro 22ga-gil, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 1st floor - 서울특별시 광진구 광나루로22가길 18 1층 - 37.5456676, 127.075958 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%9D%BC%EB%A9%98%ED%8A%B8%EB%9F%AD%20%EA%B1%B4%EB%8C%80%EC%A0%90/@37.5456676,127.075958,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-matchbook-pages/konkuk-ramen-happyhour-beer/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
