Why here
A Mangwon-dong sundae-guk shop known for a consistent line-up, with even weekday visits reporting up to an hour's wait at lunch and dinner peaks; the mid-afternoon break window is the way around it. It appeared in a Ddoganjip episode built around Mangwon-dong's best food, though without the show's official pick mark.
