I tried three yubu gimbap flavors; the original was sweet and filling, the spicy fish cake was very hot, and the wasabi tuna was milder than expected. ## Good to know - **Location**: 396 World Cup buk-ro, Nuritkum Square B1, Shop 1029, Mapo-gu, Seoul - **How it works**: Takeout-only shop with no seating; order and pay at a kiosk - **Ordered**: Wonjo Yubu Gimbap, Maekom Eodeng Yubu Gimbap, and Wasabi Tuna Yubu Gimbap - **Hours**: As listed on Sep 6, 2026: Mon–Fri 7:00 AM–8:00 PM, Sat 8:00 AM–3:00 PM, closed Sun - **Parking**: Parking available; first 30 minutes free - **Baby facilities**: No high chairs *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* I needed lunch at Nuritkum Square but did not have much time.

The shop is at 396 World Cup buk-ro, Nuritkum Square B1, Shop 1029, Mapo-gu, Seoul. This is where I went to pick up lunch. ![Samhyeongje Gimbap, Sangam branch for lunch pickup](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-02-19qbm-966.webp) ![Samhyeongje Gimbap, Sangam branch in Nuritkum Square basement](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-03-1scfo-966.webp) The hours listed when the original post was written were 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM on weekdays and 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Saturdays, with Sundays closed. Parking was listed as available with the first 30 minutes free, and there were no baby chairs. ## How long did ordering and pickup take? This is a takeout-only shop without seating. You choose and pay for your menu items at a kiosk, then take your gimbap with you, so the process was simple. ![Samhyeongje Gimbap, Sangam branch takeout shop](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-04-1j0af-966.webp) When I visited, most of the gimbap had already been made and was on display. ![Prepared gimbap at Samhyeongje Gimbap, Sangam branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-05-otv1d-966.webp) ![Gimbap displayed for takeout at Samhyeongje Gimbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-06-i150u-966.webp) It felt like about 10 seconds from payment to picking up the gimbap. I did not time it exactly, but there was almost no wait that day, which was convenient during a rushed lunch break. ## How did the three yubu gimbap flavors differ? I chose Wonjo Yubu Gimbap, Maekom Eodeng Yubu Gimbap, and Wasabi Tuna Yubu Gimbap. Since the shop sells several flavors centered on yubu gimbap, I picked different varieties to compare. ![Yubu gimbap chosen at Samhyeongje Gimbap, Sangam branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-07-3lxcm-966.webp) ![Yubu gimbap from Samhyeongje Gimbap ordered for lunch](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-08-15ha5-966.webp) ![Samhyeongje Gimbap yubu gimbap tasted in several flavors](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-09-1qyz4-966.webp) ### Was the original yubu gimbap filling enough for a meal? The Wonjo Yubu Gimbap had the characteristic sweet flavor of yubu, and it was easy to eat. The filling was quite substantial, so I felt that one roll would be enough for lunch. ### How spicy was the spicy fish cake yubu gimbap? I usually handle spicy food well, so I was not too concerned just from the name. However, the Maekom Eodeng Yubu Gimbap had the strongest flavor of the three. ![Maekom Eodeng Yubu Gimbap ordered at Samhyeongje Gimbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-10-6wb3y-966.webp) At first it seemed fine, but the heat built as I kept eating, and even I found it quite spicy. If you are sensitive to spicy food, it may be better to alternate small bites with another flavor, such as the Wonjo Yubu Gimbap, rather than eat this one by itself. ### Was the wasabi tuna yubu gimbap strongly sharp? The third one I ate, the Wasabi Tuna Yubu Gimbap, was milder than I expected from its name. ![Wasabi Tuna Yubu Gimbap chosen at Samhyeongje Gimbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-11-3w3sq-966.webp) For my taste, the wasabi did not stand out much, and the sharp sensation was not strong. ![Wasabi Tuna Yubu Gimbap eaten for lunch](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-12-1k7mq-966.webp) The savory tuna and sweet yubu went together for a different flavor from the spicy fish cake. Eating the three in rotation kept the meal from becoming monotonous. ## Was the packaged gimbap easy to carry? The gimbap was neatly wrapped in foil. It was convenient packaging for taking it somewhere else instead of eating it on the spot. ![Samhyeongje Gimbap gimbap wrapped in foil](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-13-uxp0w-966.webp) ![Samhyeongje Gimbap packed for easy transport](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-14-4mbru-966.webp) The rolls were packed so they would not come apart, making them easy to carry and simple to eat. It suited my situation because I needed to pick up lunch at Nuritkum Square and go somewhere else. ![Samhyeongje Gimbap takeout brought from Nuritkum Square](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-15-vt2j0-966.webp) ## How was it for a short lunch break? The most convenient thing about this visit was being able to pay for the prepared gimbap and take it right away. ![Samhyeongje Gimbap picked up during a short lunch break](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-16-bkd82-966.webp) I was able to pick up lunch quickly that day. There is no space to sit and eat, but it was convenient when I had little time and needed to take the food elsewhere. ![Samhyeongje Gimbap yubu gimbap chosen for lunch](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-17-13gkx-966.webp) Choosing several flavors to share would also work well. In the combination I tried, the sweet original, spicy fish cake, and relatively mild wasabi tuna were clearly different. The owner was also friendly, so I left with my takeout in a good mood. ![Samhyeongje Gimbap, Sangam branch used for lunch takeout](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-18-h3cw8-966.webp) If I visit again, I would like to try some of the other yubu gimbap varieties I did not have this time. ![Visit to pick up yubu gimbap at Samhyeongje Gimbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-19-1f9zq-966.webp) ## Where it is - Samhyeongje Gimbap, Sangam branch (삼형제김밥 상암점) - 서울특별시 마포구 월드컵북로 396 누리꿈스퀘어 지하1층 1029호 - 서울특별시 마포구 월드컵북로 396 누리꿈스퀘어 지하1층 1029호 - 37.5793418, 126.889819 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%82%BC%ED%98%95%EC%A0%9C%EA%B9%80%EB%B0%A5%20%EC%83%81%EC%95%94%EC%A0%90/@37.5793418,126.889819,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@supper-alleys-seoul/samhyeongje-gimbap-sangam-takeout-lunch-759f/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
