Pildong Myeonok
A Pyongyang naengmyeon house in Pil-dong, known for an understated broth and buckwheat noodles.
Dongdaemun Design Plaza
It closes three days a year and otherwise runs 10:00 to 20:00, but that figure covers the site, not what is inside it — each hall keeps its own hours according to whatever exhibition is running. Check the programme, not the building.
Namsangol Hanok Village
Five hanok moved onto the northern slope of Namsan beside Chungmuro Station, with a traditional garden laid around them. The houses open Tuesday to Sunday and rest on Mondays; closing time differs by an hour between summer and winter. There is nothing to pay at the gate.
Woo Lae Oak
A Pyongyang-style naengmyeon house open since 1946, known for a clear, light broth.
