Gwangjang Market legend — mung-bean bindaetteok fried in view, makgeolli mandatory.

Sunhui-ne Bindaetteok is Gwangjang Market royalty: the mung-bean pancake stall whose griddles — visible, roaring, perpetually full — have made it the market's defining image and one of Seoul's great food-crowd spectacles. The bindaetteok is the classic article, ground mung beans fried in generous oil to a crackling edge, and the makgeolli pairing is, as the house billing correctly states, mandatory. The regulars' playbook elevates the visit: add the tteok and noodle sari (2,000 won each) for the full build, and mix your own table sauce — gochujang, vinegar, garlic — rather than settling for soy alone. Timing is everything at a 200-seat operation that still fills: before 10:30am or after 2pm dodges the 30-minute weekend queues, groups can phone ahead, and cash keeps the line moving at peak. Loud, oily, communal, perfect — Gwangjang in a single stall.
