For a late-night snack at a mountain guesthouse, the writer took away boneless fried chicken for 23,000 won and spicy gizzard fritters for 11,000 won, and the shop added two sauces plus a free 500ml cola. The boneless chicken uses 100% Korean chicken thigh, so it stayed tender even after it cooled. ## Good to know - **Address**: 4 Ssanggye-ro, Hwagae-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do - **Hours**: 12:00–22:00 - **Boneless fried chicken**: 23,000 won - **Spicy gizzard fritters**: 11,000 won - **Switch to boneless**: +2,000 won - **Seating**: Outdoor tables, one group table, about 4 indoor tables - **Comes with takeout**: Honey mustard dressing and seasoned sauce, plus a free 500ml cola - **Price reference**: ₩2,000 ≈ $1.5 · ₩11,000 ≈ $8 (2026-09-17) *as written by the visitor on Sep 17, 2026* ![Takeout boneless fried chicken from Jadam Chicken Hadong Hwagaejangteo](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-01-q2nqy-1200.webp) Hi, I'm Nyeori! I went on a trip to Hadong recently. Our guesthouse was up in the mountains, so we had to buy food in advance haha. While I was deciding what to get for a late-night snack, I saw reviews saying Jadam Chicken in Hadong was good, so I went with it. Let's get into the review! > Jadam Chicken Hadong Hwagaejangteo / 4 Ssanggye-ro, Hwagae-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do / 12:00–22:00 ## Where is Jadam Chicken Hadong Hwagaejangteo, and what's nearby? ![Exterior of Jadam Chicken Hadong Hwagaejangteo near Hwagae Market](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-02-ap3ps-m-900.webp) Jadam Chicken Hadong Hwagaejangteo — the name literally means "chicken that holds nature" — sits right next to Hwagae Market, so it's a great stop after looking around the market. There's also a Lotte Super nearby, so it was convenient to grab groceries and pick up chicken before heading to the guesthouse. I found out the owner also runs a kkwabaegi (twisted doughnut) shop called Dalin Kkwabaegi! Apparently it's good enough to have been featured on a TV show about food masters. ![Outdoor tables at Jadam Chicken Hadong Hwagaejangteo](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-03-1lp6g-900.webp) ![Outdoor seating large enough for group visits](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-04-wzlrz-900.webp) ## Outdoor tables or indoor seats at Jadam Chicken Hadong? Jadam Chicken Hadong has outdoor tables! The weather's starting to cool down a bit, which is perfect for chicken and beer outside. If you're looking for an outdoor drinking spot in Hadong, this is it! There's also a table big enough for groups, so it'd be great if you're visiting with a bunch of people for drinks. ![Indoor tables at Jadam Chicken Hadong Hwagaejangteo](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-05-rxllm-900.webp) There are also about 4 indoor tables, kept nice and clean. ![Counter where a takeout order is being prepared](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-06-1o0t9-900.webp) ## What we ordered and what it cost: boneless chicken 23,000 won, gizzard fritters 11,000 won We placed a takeout order in advance so we could just grab it and go as soon as we arrived! I liked that Jadam Chicken lets you switch to boneless for just an extra ₩2,000. Here's what I ordered: - Boneless fried chicken ₩23,000 - Spicy gizzard fritters ₩11,000 They also sell a variety of sides like cheese balls, fritters, and tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), which go well with the chicken. ### The chicken-cooking robot inside Jadam Chicken Hadong Jadam Chicken Hadong Hwagaejangteo has a chicken-cooking robot inside the store. It was my first time seeing a place with one of these, and it was so fascinating! I heard fewer than 10 stores nationwide use this chicken-cooking robot. Since the robot fries at a set time and temperature, you get chicken cooked at exactly the right time and temperature every time! ![Freshly made kkwabaegi (twisted doughnuts) sold in the store](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-07-ifdfv-900.webp) They also sell kkwabaegi (twisted doughnuts) on one side, and apparently they only sell what's made fresh that day. I wanted to buy some to eat too, but there was already so much food for just the two of us, so I held back... ㅠㅠ My mom would absolutely love these — she'd have grabbed one the second she saw it, haha. ![Neatly packed Jadam Chicken takeout bag](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-08-uzzhp-900.webp) Ta-da! They packed everything up so neatly, it was easy to carry. ![Packaged container of spicy gizzard fritters](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-09-14yzd-900.webp) ## How do the spicy gizzard fritters taste? We opened the box in the car Spicy gizzard fritters, ₩11,000. I lost to the smell. I ended up opening the box in the car and eating gizzards on the spot. It was my first time trying Jadam Chicken's spicy gizzard fritters, and they were seriously a hidden gem — crispy outside, chewy inside, total beer food. I felt like I was going to finish the whole thing right there, so I calmed myself down and managed to bring the rest safely to the guesthouse. ![Chicken takeout box opened at the guesthouse](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-10-1bgem-900.webp) ![Two sauces and a 500ml cola included with the order](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-11-1rgx0-m-900.webp) ## Two free sauces and a free 500ml cola with every takeout order Time for the real unboxing! They gave us two types of sauce — honey mustard dressing and a seasoning sauce — plus a free 500ml cola. These days you often have to pay extra for sauce and cola, so Jadam Chicken Hadong is seriously the best. ![Full view of the crispy boneless fried chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-12-qwgjk-900.webp) The visuals are amazing ㅠ,ㅠ It looks so crispy and delicious! ![Close-up of a chunky boneless chicken thigh piece](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-13-1exa3-900.webp) ## 100% chicken thigh: boneless chicken even bone-in fans will like I'm usually a bone-in-only kind of person when it comes to chicken, but Jadam Chicken's boneless option uses 100% domestic chicken thigh, so it's tender and never dry! You have to get the boneless at Jadam Chicken. ![Cross-section of boneless chicken coated in nut and grain batter](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-14-1gpt7-900.webp) It's brined with Himalayan salt and coated in a batter containing nuts and grains, so the seasoning is just right and the coating is super crispy. ![A piece of boneless fried chicken being picked up](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-15-1jpgk-900.webp) The boneless pieces were big and chunky, and since it's 100% chicken thigh, every bite was juicy no matter which part you got ㅠ,ㅠ Why is Hadong Jadam so good?? I'm jealous of the people who live in Hadong. ![Plate of boneless fried chicken with sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-16-15l6x-900.webp) ![Boneless fried chicken dipped in honey mustard sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-17-13ojl-900.webp) Dip it generously in the sauce too. Since we ate it as a late-night snack, it had cooled off a bit, but it was still tasty even cold ㅠㅠ ![Large remaining portion of spicy gizzard fritters](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-18-1sffs-900.webp) ## Is 11,000 won good value? Portion size and spice level of the gizzard fritters Even after eating gizzards in the car, there was still a huge portion left! At ₩11,000, it's an absolute steal. ![Close-up of spicy gizzard fritters](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-19-18gsh-900.webp) ![Spicy gizzard fritter picked up with chopsticks](https://img.superchart.com/images/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless-20-7mt6c-900.webp) It's not very spicy — just a little kick, so you don't get tired of it. It's perfect! I highly recommend ordering the gizzards along with the chicken! Maybe because the robot fries everything at a precise temperature and time, this Hadong Jadam Chicken was seriously delicious. Next time I'll have to go to the store to try it fresh off the fryer. ## Where it is - Jadam Chicken Hadong Hwagaejangteo (자담치킨 하동화개장터점) - 4 Ssanggye-ro, Hwagae-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea - 경상남도 하동군 화개면 쌍계로 4 - 35.1869097, 127.6250429 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%9E%90%EB%8B%B4%EC%B9%98%ED%82%A8%20%ED%95%98%EB%8F%99%ED%99%94%EA%B0%9C%EC%9E%A5%ED%84%B0%EC%A0%90/@35.1869097,127.6250429,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@yeongdo-salt-noodle/hadong-hwagae-jadam-chicken-gizzard-boneless/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
