Soso Makchang Hannam Branch
소소막창 한남점
About
Lively Hannam-dong grill spot famed for its green onion-stuffed pork entrails and grilled beef abomasum.
Perched on the second floor across from Soonchunhyang University Hospital in Hannam-dong, Soso Makchang has quietly turned an upper-level space into a neighborhood fixture. The dining room is split into front and back sections, boasting large windows that offset the grill smoke, roughly twenty tables, and a wall plastered with celebrity autographs—including members of BTS. Ordering leans modern, utilizing tap-to-order smartphone tags at every table, while the charcoal grills stay rooted in traditional Korean barbecue culture. The restaurant's signature draw is the *dwaeji pamakchang* (pork entrails stuffed with whole green onions). Par-cooked before reaching the charcoal, the circular cuts crisp quickly on the outside with reduced grease. Biting through reveals the sweet, aromatic juice of the scallion bursting against the chewy pork, cutting right through any lingering gaminess. Diners also seek out the *so-makchang* (beef abomasum), a pricier, deeply nutty cut with a savory chew that holds its own over the coals. For extra texture, the *beoljip kkeopdegi* (honeycomb-scored pork rind) roasts into a thick, chewy bite; regulars coat it heavily in roasted soybean powder and wrap it inside pickled perilla leaves. Side dishes play a deliberate supporting role. The towering *cheese gyeran-jjim* arrives as an oversized, steamy bowl of fluffy eggs bound by melted cheese, easily shared among three diners. Carbs arrive in the form of *soso makchang-bap*, a kimchi-fried rice laced with bits of chewy entrails and capped with a fried egg, alongside brothy bowls of *kongnamul ramyeon* loaded with bean sprouts. While waitlists swell on weekends via CatchTable, midday openings at 3:00 PM make it an easy target for early drinkers and off-peak gatherings. For anyone navigating Yongsan's nightlife with an appetite for offal, it remains a reliable Hannam stop for charcoal-charred comfort.
