A couple arrived at 11am and ordered Gyedan Ramen (basic) for 11,000 won, Motsu Ramen (basic) for 12,000 won and tamagobap (egg rice bowl) for 3,000 won, switching up the broth strength, tripe topping and secret spicy sauce as they ate. With its garlicky, deeply savory broth and crisp pork intestine, the Motsu Ramen was the clear favorite of the three. ## Good to know - **Address**: 161 Mokdongseo-ro, B1 Unit B103, Yangcheon-gu, Seoul (first basement floor of the SBS Mokdong building) - **Getting there**: 470m from Exit 2 of Omokgyo Station - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–20:30 (last order 20:00) - **Parking**: Surface lot reserved for the SBS Mokdong headquarters shops; ask a staff member after your meal - **Gyedan Ramen (basic)**: 11,000 won - **Motsu Ramen (basic)**: 12,000 won - **Tamagobap (egg rice bowl)**: 3,000 won - **Menu lineup**: 2 ramen (tonkotsu, motsu), 2 mini rice bowls (tamagobap, chashu don), add-ons (noodles, chashu, egg, pork intestine) - **Broth strength**: Choice of basic or rich - **Seating**: Tables for four, two and solo diners, with tablet ordering at every seat *as written by the visitor on Sep 19, 2026* I was trying to figure out what to eat for lunch, so my husband and I headed to Gyedan Ramen Mokdong Branch, a well-known spot in Mokdong, at 11am haha.

For the ramen, you can choose between basic or rich broth. ![Instructions on the tablet for how to enjoy the ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-14-3ku4j-900.webp) We waited while watching the tablet's guide on how to enjoy the dish best, but the food came out fast. ![Gyedan Ramen, Motsu Ramen, and tamagobap laid out together](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-15-pc437-900.webp) We wanted to try a bit of everything, so this is what we ordered. - Gyedan Ramen (basic): ₩11,000 - Motsu Ramen (basic): ₩12,000 - Tamagobap: ₩3,000 ### Gyedan Ramen (basic), 11,000 won: broth and noodles First up, the Gyedan Ramen. On top of the pale, rich broth were piled egg, chashu, wood ear mushroom, and chopped green onion. ![Gyedan Ramen topped with egg, chashu, and wood ear mushroom](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-16-yfcd4-900.webp) I took a spoonful of the broth first — the first taste was heavy, but the finish was clean, going down smoothly without any greasiness, with a faint hint of garlic aroma rising up. I kept going back for more spoonfuls of just the broth 👍 ![A spoonful of pale tonkotsu broth lifted from the bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-17-12mcc-900.webp) The noodles are thin, straight ramen noodles. With every bite, I could feel the rich broth clinging tightly to the strands. ![Thin straight ramen noodles lifted with chopsticks](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-18-179gh-900.webp) The chashu was so tender it pulled apart with just a light press of the chopsticks, and the wood ear mushroom's crunchy texture balanced out the whole bowl. ### Motsu Ramen (basic), 12,000 won: what the pork intestine topping adds The Motsu Ramen has the same broth, but with pork intestine on top. The pork intestine was crispy outside, chewy inside! The nuttiness spread out more with each bite, so I kept reaching for more haha. It paired perfectly with the broth without ever feeling greasy. When I split the egg in half, the yolk came out soft and runny, and stirring it into the broth added another layer of richness. If I had to pick a single favorite between the two Omokgyo ramens, it would be the motsu ramen, purely for the presence of that pork intestine. ![Motsu Ramen topped with pork intestine](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-19-11ghv-900.webp) ![A halved soft-boiled egg next to pork intestine](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-20-d24hf-900.webp) ### One spoonful of the secret spicy sauce turns it into karai ramen Following the eating guide, we enjoyed it plain at first, then added a spoonful of the secret spicy sauce 🔥 It instantly transformed into a spicy, tangy karai ramen — just one spoonful was enough to noticeably bring up the heat. ![Ramen broth turned red after adding the secret spicy sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-21-1xpsc-900.webp) ### Tamagobap (egg rice bowl), 3,000 won Tamagobap is a rice bowl topped with egg omelet strips and pork. ![Tamagobap topped with egg omelet strips and pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-22-bscc4-900.webp) I stirred it gently with my chopsticks and dipped it into the ramen broth — the egg strips were soft and silky, and the rice grains soaked up the broth to become moist. This is definitely where you fill up on carbs haha. ## Three-line summary of Gyedan Ramen Mokdong Branch - ✔️ Gyedan Ramen Mokdong Branch, a well-known Mokdong spot, is said to specialize in tonkotsu ramen made from pork bone and chicken simmered over 14 hours. - ✔️ We ordered Gyedan Ramen (basic) ₩11,000, Motsu Ramen (basic) ₩12,000, and tamagobap ₩3,000. - ✔️ You can enjoy three flavors in one bowl — the garlicky rich broth, crispy pork intestine, and the spicy sauce. ![The table at Gyedan Ramen Mokdong Branch after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening/gyedan-ramen-mokdong-lunch-opening-23-1riwg-900.webp) ## Frequently asked questions about Gyedan Ramen Mokdong Branch ### How do you get three different flavors out of one bowl? First enjoy the ramen as is, then add the table's secret spicy sauce, and finally stir in rice. If you ask, they'll give you a small serving of rice for free, so just mention it to the staff. ### Is Gyedan Ramen very different from ramen in Japan? It's described as a milder, more Korean-style take rather than the bold, saltier flavor typical of ramen in Japan. ### What is the difference between Motsu Ramen and Gyedan Ramen?
