I had ₩24,000 dakdoritang with my girlfriend as a late-night meal; its initially sour, raw chili-powder note became a spicy, clean-tasting broth as it simmered. A worthwhile stop for chicken and drinks late at night. ## Good to know - **Hours**: 17:30–05:30 - **Main menu**: Old-fashioned whole chicken / chicken / dakdoritang - **Dakdoritang**: ₩24,000 *as written by the visitor on Sep 11, 2026* Today, I’m going to introduce a place in Seomyeon, Busan that is great for everything from dinner to drinks. There are so many good restaurants and bars in Seomyeon that I always wonder where to go whenever I make plans with friends. This time, I visited Yetnal Tongdak & Tang Seomyeon Branch (옛날통닭앤탕 서면점), where you can enjoy old-fashioned whole chicken and dakdoritang (spicy braised chicken stew) together. I was craving a hearty dakdoritang today, so after work I headed out for a late-night meal with my girlfriend. ## Yetnal Tongdak & Tang in Seomyeon’s food alley ![Visit to Yetnal Tongdak & Tang in Seomyeon’s food alley](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-01-1sp9i-1200.webp) Yetnal Tongdak & Tang Seomyeon Branch sits in Seomyeon’s central commercial district, one of Busan’s busiest areas. Seomyeon is one of Busan’s signature downtown districts: people come for meals and cafés during the day, then flock to its bars and restaurants in earnest at night. It is especially a place where you can feel Seomyeon’s lively atmosphere, which runs from evening into the early morning. There were no customers when I arrived, but after midnight they started coming in. Ahhh, the good old days. One thing that stood out to me before I visited was that it stays open until late. - Address: 73-1 Jungang-daero 680beonga-gil, Busanjin-gu, Busan, South Korea - Hours: 17:30–05:30 - Main menu: old-fashioned whole chicken / chicken / dakdoritang, etc. - Location: near Seomyeon’s central food alley - Recommended for: gatherings with friends / company dinners / drinks / late dinners ## What is the atmosphere like inside? ![Atmosphere at Yetnal Tongdak & Tang Seomyeon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-02-e5luc-900.webp) ![Interior of Yetnal Tongdak & Tang Seomyeon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-03-hx4ab-900.webp) ![Interior of a chicken bar in Seomyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-04-jqtiy-900.webp) ![Late-night dakdoritang at Yetnal Tongdak & Tang in Seomyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-05-1aaz7-900.webp) ![Late-night dakdoritang at Yetnal Tongdak & Tang in Seomyeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-06-1q8ba-900.webp) Once inside, the overall mood felt relaxed and cozy. There are plenty of neat, stylish restaurants these days, but at a chicken restaurant or bar like this, I think an atmosphere where you can sit back and enjoy food and drinks suits it even better. Looking around from my table, it felt less like a place for a quiet meal alone and more like somewhere to visit with friends, a partner, or coworkers to enjoy food and drinks. That made me think it would also be a decent choice for a company dinner or gathering. I could see the menu and a poster for the Tteoksuni Set, too 😍 I want to eat it all, but today I’ll hold back... ![Menu and poster at Yetnal Tongdak & Tang](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-07-1o7xp-900.webp) ![Basic table setting before the dakdoritang meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-08-hyqmh-900.webp) This is the basic table setting‼️ ![Basic table setting before the dakdoritang meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-09-1fr4t-900.webp) ## Dakdoritang that became more clean-tasting as it simmered Before the dakdoritang arrived, cheers 🎶🎶🎶 ![₩24,000 dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-10-1xa10-900.webp) *Dakdoritang ₩24,000* The staff said I could eat it right away, so I took a bite. The initial sourness and raw smell of chili powder made for a worrying first meeting, but as it continued to simmer, the broth became spicy with a clean, sharp kick that paired well with drinks. The seasoning had soaked nicely into the chicken, and eating it with the broth made me want rice, so I ordered it right away. ![Seasoned chicken and broth during the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-11-1tvk7-900.webp) Even after eating pizza and then more of this, it was so good that I forgot to take photos—so here’s one hurried shot 😆 ![Eating dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-12-ixpyy-900.webp) ![Dakdoritang and rice meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-13-1cxlu-900.webp) ![Meal with chicken thigh and rice cakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-14-tzuzs-900.webp) ![Meal with chicken breast and glass noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew/seomyeon-spicy-chicken-stew-15-18426-900.webp) Chicken thigh, chicken breast, rice cakes, and glass noodles—one whole bowl of rice disappeared in no time.
