Dolgini here with a restaurant recommendation, bowing politely 🪨✌🏻 There are so many great restaurants these days, but the prices can be wild.. So I want to recommend a tteokbokki spot that nails price, portion, and taste all at once. ## Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch: 7 minutes on foot from Sinyongsan Station Here it is~~!!!! Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch (현선이네 용산본점)! ✨✨✨✨ It took me about 7 minutes on foot from Sinyongsan Station! It's on Yongridan-gil, so it was easy to reach from either Yongsan Station or Sinyongsan Station. I came to Yongsan that day for the Seoul International Fireworks Festival haha. Yeouido felt too scary crowd-wise.. I actually almost fainted there last year!!! So this time I came to Yongsan Station instead haha. These days it's really an ocean of information.. everyone shares the best viewing spots in Instagram comments, so tons of reels were popping up before the fireworks festival! Anyway! I was thinking about what to eat near Yongsan Station or Sinyongsan Station before the fireworks, and tteokbokki came to mind!! Cheap, filling, and delicious — that's basically tteokbokki, right~~ 💖💖💖💖 ![Red-roofed exterior of Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-01-qccsb-m-1200.webp) ![Storefront of Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch on Yongridan-gil](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-02-14qo2-900.webp) ## A 20-minute wait at 4-5pm, then kiosk ordering at the table At Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch, you order by kiosk once you're seated!!! We visited between 4 and 5pm and the wait was really long.. so popular! Still, we got there a bit early and waited about 20 minutes before getting in haha. The bright red roof was so pretty, and the yellow thatch(?) behind it was pretty too. ![Table and ordering kiosk at Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-03-1on4n-900.webp) ![Set menu and price list at Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-04-b2mr5-m-900.webp) ![Self-serve bar with fry batter and individually packed soy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-05-1rqtw-900.webp) ## Hyeonseonine Yongsan menu, prices and self-serve bar Here's the menu and self-serve bar setup!! Let me walk you through it~~ - Hyeonseonine Beer Set ₩32,000 - Hyeonseonine Combo Set ₩23,000 - Hyeonseonine Set ₩23,000 - Sunny Set ₩18,000 - Baby Set ₩13,000 - Butter garlic fries ₩7,500 Ta-dah!!!!!!

Individually packed soy sauce and salt for the sundae and fritters were all there 😙😙😙 ### How spicy is the medium level at Hyeonseonine? Hyeonseonine's tteokbokki comes in three spice levels: mild, medium, and hot. We picked the safe medium level!! And it really was pretty manageable..? About the same as Shin Ramyun, or maybe a bit spicier!!! If you want to blow off some stress and can handle Yeoptteok's less-spicy option or more, I think you could go with the hot level haha. ## What comes in the Hyeonseonine Combo Set: tteokbokki, sundae, fritters and mini gimbap From the menu we got the ✅Hyeonseonine Combo Set: ₩26,000, packed with tteokbokki (looked like a 2-person portion) + sundae (blood sausage) + fritters (vegetable, sweet potato, squid, gimmari, mandu, etc.) + mini gimbap (seaweed rice roll, about 7 pieces..?) + 3 pieces of odeng (fish cake) — so generous!!!! 🥹 ![Hyeonseonine Combo Set spread with tteokbokki, sundae, and fritters](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-06-4sehm-900.webp) ![Close-up of medium-spice tteokbokki and mini gimbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-07-1kdiw-900.webp) ![Plate of assorted fritters and odeng from the combo set](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-08-k4zix-900.webp) Thanks to all that.. my stomach nearly burst haha. Adding the draft beer on top made it even tougher haha, and then when the slushie came from the review event, I couldn't resist and just went for it... oh my ~~~ ![A glass of draft beer alongside the tteokbokki spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-09-bxp4r-900.webp) ![Kool-Fizz flavored slushie received from a review event](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-10-oomeb-900.webp) ![Table with tteokbokki and slushie together](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-11-1u26p-900.webp) ## Coolpis slushie and tteokbokki cooked at the table Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch is also known for its instant-style tteokbokki, but not many people seem to order it!! And the slushie comes in Kool-Fizz flavor haha, which really helps cut through the spice — so good! ![Hot plate for instant-style tteokbokki on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-12-c6zt4-900.webp) ![Water dispenser and self-serve cups at Hyeonseonine Yongsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-13-97w8y-900.webp) ![Leftover tteokbokki and dishes after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy/hyunseonine-yongsan-medium-spicy-slushy-14-1em99-900.webp) Just a note: you need the hot plate(?) for the instant-style tteokbokki, and water comes from a self-serve dispenser.
