About
Spicy, savory won jjajang noodles and sweet-and-sour pork in a spacious Korean-Chinese restaurant near Sejong University.
The dish to start with is the house won jjajang (원짜장면, ₩7,000), a dark, savory take on Korean-Chinese black-bean noodles that grows noticeably hotter as you work through it. The room is clean and spacious, with enough room for a solo lunch or a table of friends; the feel is lively but tidy rather than hushed. Portions are generous, and the cooking leans old-school rather than polished for show. For a second dish, the small sweet-and-sour pork (찹쌀탕수육 소, ₩20,000) pairs a crisp coating and tender meat with a sweet-tangy sauce; some diners like its fruit and lemon notes, though reports on the batter and sauce are mixed. The seafood jjampong (짬뽕, ₩8,000) is a milder choice: a clean, gently spicy broth with plenty of seafood. Ganjang jjajang (간짜장, ₩8,000) has its fans too, but it is less consistent in the accounts, so the house noodles are the safer bet. Solo diners can also choose one-person combination plates such as tang-jja. Sejongwon is open daily from 10:00 to 21:00. There is little parking of its own; visitors arriving by car are advised to use the nearby Gwangjin Plaza public lot. The roomy dining area works for families and groups as well as people eating alone, and the menu has both individual dishes and sharing options. Ordering is not always smooth: some visitors describe it as slow or chaotic, so allow a little patience rather than planning a tight meal between appointments. Come for familiar Korean-Chinese comfort food near Sejong University, especially if you want a filling solo meal or an informal group lunch. The value is a recurring strength, but don’t assume every dish lands equally well: reviewers mention occasional inconsistency, including watery sauce or sour onions. Keep the order focused on the signature noodles, or add the tangsuyuk if you’re sharing.
