Wirye Jjajang
위례짜장
About
Onion-rich jjajangmyeon for ₩4,900, plus crisp-coated tangsuyuk and spicy seafood jjamppong, served around the clock.
The 짜장면 (jjajangmyeon) is the reason to start here: it costs ₩4,900, and its black-bean sauce is savory rather than sugary, with plenty of onion. The noodles have a satisfying chew, though one diner found them a little firm. It’s a straightforward bowl, and the price makes it an easy choice at any hour. For a second dish, the tangsuyuk comes with thick-cut tender pork under a thin, crisp coating. There’s a mini portion for ₩12,000, or order the small for ₩19,000 if you’re sharing more generously. The sauce is less sweet than the version some diners expect, so that’s worth knowing before you order. 삼선짬뽕 (seafood jjamppong) is the other well-liked pick: its broth is deep and moderately spicy, with enough heat to warm you without overwhelming the bowl. It costs ₩8,900. Wirye Jjajang is open around the clock, every day, so it works for a late meal, an early start or a bowl after drinks. The dining room is clean, bright and simply decorated, with an easy setup for eating alone as well as tables for friends or family. Food arrives quickly, and you can take any menu item away. Portions are generous; adding 곱빼기 (a larger serving) costs ₩1,000 extra. Parking is available in the building, and Seongnam Pay is accepted. Come for an inexpensive, filling jjajangmyeon or a quick meal when most kitchens are closed. The menu extends well beyond the signature noodles, but prices outside the basic jjajangmyeon are described as more ordinary. If texture matters to you, keep in mind that the noodles may be firmer than you prefer.
