Malli Hyang

About

An old-style Chinese restaurant within walking distance of Jungang Station. There is no dedicated parking; use nearby paid or public lots. Office workers and viewers of its TV appearances can create a queue near opening.

Gan-jajang comes with thin noodles, cucumber and a fried egg, plus separately stir-fried onion and black-bean sauce. The seasoning is restrained and may taste too mild if you expect a strong salty hit. Jjamppong also favours ingredient flavour over aggressive heat.

Tangsuyuk has a light, crisp old-style coating rather than thick, chewy glutinous-rice batter. Sauce is normally poured over it; ask for it separately when ordering. Fried pork can be dipped lightly in salt or soy sauce.

The menu photographed on 24 Sep 2026 lists gan-jajang and jjamppong at KRW 9,000 each, and tangsuyuk at KRW 28,000 small or KRW 40,000 large. A small pork dish and one noodle bowl may feel short for two: order for your appetite. It suits mild Chinese food; whether a long queue is worthwhile is a matter of taste.
