💡 Tips before you go
- Skip the dipping sauces if you want to avoid an overwhelming heat level, as the fried coating is already seasoned.
- Go early in the evening to beat the long lines that form outside after 8 PM during peak hours.
- Ask for extra rice cakes (tteok) on the side to help cool down your palate between bites.
