Spicy cheese chicken skewers in Jeonju Hanok Village: Munkkocchi

When it comes to food on a Jeonju trip, you can't skip the street food at Jeonju Hanok Village 😄 While wandering the Hanok Village looking for something tasty, I tried octopus skewers and octopus gangjeong!

Where is Munkkocchi in Jeonju Hanok Village, and what are its hours?

Munkkocchi Mungangjeong Jeonju Hanok Village Branch Mon–Fri 11:30–20:30 Sat 11:00–22:00 Sun 11:00–21:00

Munkkocchi Mungangjeong sits right in the heart of the Hanok Village, making it an easy stop while wandering around. If you park at Public Parking Lot 1 and walk down while sightseeing, you'll spot it right away.

There are also tables next to the shop where you can sit and eat or take a break, so it was nice to rest a bit while enjoying the octopus skewers haha.

Munkkocchi menu and how kiosk ordering works

Here's the menu at Munkkocchi Mungangjeong, Jeonju Hanok Village's street food spot.

Besides chicken skewers, octopus skewers, and octopus gangjeong, they also sell slushies, sikhye, and Sangha Farm ice cream, so it would be great to visit with kids too.

You could order via kiosk! If you take part in the Naver receipt review event, you get a free sikhye — worth doing haha.

A model that's a 1000% match with the real thing~~! lol

Since it's street food, your hands get messy a lot, and if you come with kids you'll go through tissues fast — but they had tissue paper and wet wipes ready, so it was really convenient. You could feel the owner's thoughtfulness there!

There's a trash bin right across the street, so please dispose of your trash there.

Octopus grilled over an open flame, and the sauce

While waiting at Munkkocchi Mungangjeong, I watched them grill everything over open flame. You even get to see a bit of a fire show haha. I didn't know it was flame-grilled — no wonder it tastes so good!! Flame-grilled, always a safe bet~~

Loaded with sauce and bonito flakes!! They really don't skimp on ingredients. Total win!! It's so disappointing when there's not enough sauce on stuff like this...hahaha

What we ordered at Munkkocchi and what it cost

• Katsuo mungangjeong ₩8,500
• Cheese chicken skewer, spicy ₩6,000
• Katsuo octopus skewer, mild ₩5,000

Katsuo mungangjeong, 8,500 won: how the fried octopus tastes

The katsuo mungangjeong turned out to be octopus coated in batter and fried, then topped with bonito flakes and sauce like takoyaki.

Crispy outside, tender inside~ I was worried the octopus might be chewy, but it was insanely soft!! Even better than I expected lol

Spicy cheese chicken skewer, 6,000 won: how hot is it?

The cheese chicken skewer — just looking at that golden, cheesy visual already looks amazing!! Chicken skewers topped with mozzarella cheese and warmed in the oven.

The chicken was plump and tender, and so delicious. I'm pretty spice-sensitive, but even though it's spicy, the cheese mellowed it out, so I really enjoyed it! The sweet-and-spicy sauce was great too, and since the cheese was 100% real, it had a nutty, savory flavor.

Mild katsuo octopus skewer, 5,000 won

Here's the katsuo octopus skewer.

I love bonito flakes, and they gave me a generous amount, so I was so happy eating bite after bite lol

I flipped it over to check out the octopus, curious about how it looked, and seeing the plump, whole piece of octopus threaded on the skewer made me go 'wow~' out loud lol

They gave a generous amount on the skewer too, so I pulled it off to share and dipped each piece.

It was big and thick, so each bite was really filling, the octopus flavor was great, and it paired well with the sweet-and-salty teriyaki mayo sauce — so tasty.
