Yu Iksang Sushi is a sushi restaurant in Mapo, Seoul, known for extra-long sushi. We tried Couple Set B with shrimp tempura, cold soba, salad, extra-long sushi and futomaki; the generous portions and dramatic plating made it a date-night event. Verdict: go hungry for a fun Hongdae date meal.
Ijjok Kimchi Samgyeopsal is a Korean BBQ restaurant in Mapo, Seoul, near Hapjeong Station. A couple seven days into dating ordered pork belly, pork jowl, grilled kimchi, soybean paste stew, and spicy mixed noodles without worrying about garlic breath. Verdict: an easygoing, satisfying date-night meal with expertly grilled pork.
