Gwangju Seoul Gopchang Wangsimnijeom
광주서울곱창 왕십리역점 Gopchang is grilled pork intestine; despite the name 'Seoul', the brand comes from Gwangju (Songjeong-ri), and one writer wondered why it is called Seoul Gopchang.
Compiled from 2 blog posts read in fullSources →
A gopchang (grilled pork intestine) house from Songjeong-ri in Gwangju, on the food alley near Wangsimni Station. People order a plate of glazed grilled gopchang (26,000 won) with a spicy rice soup (spicy mixed gukbap 11,000 won) and eat it wrapped in greens. We read 2 posts, from 2 to 3 July 2026, and both describe an actual visit, so everything below rests on those two.

Counted from what bloggers wrote in their posts; we did not confirm it with the restaurant. Where the values differ, it may be a change over time rather than a disagreement, so we show when each one was written.
What sets it apart
- Both posts noticed a waiting area. Neither writer actually waited: one came around 5 pm on a Saturday, the other at 2 pm.
- Both posts walked from Wangsimni Station: one said four minutes on foot, the other said to take exit 1 and look for the red sign near the Starbucks building.
- One post paid with Onnuri vouchers bought at a discount and noted Seoul Pay and Zero Pay are also accepted; the same post mentioned a Naver review event worth 1,000 won off per person.
- The two posts split on taste. A writer who often ordered from the Songpa branch said it tasted the same and was satisfied; the other found no off-smell but called the gopchang a familiar taste and preferred the soup.

Where it is
We could not find this shop’s own listing on Naver Map, so the link searches for its Korean name around this spot instead.
From the station
Both posts walked from Wangsimni Station: one said four minutes on foot, the other said to take exit 1 and look for the red sign near the Starbucks building.
Getting inside
No post described the floor from experience; only the address says ground floor.
Nobody mentioned a step at the entrance or wheelchair or stroller access. That means we don't know, not that there is none.
Neither post said where the toilet is or whether it is split by gender.
No one mentioned: Second floor · In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Toilet inside · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

What we do not know
- Opening hours come only from copied listings, and the opening time differs: 11:00 in one post, 12:00 in the other. Both give 23:00 close and 22:00 last order.
- Neither post queued; both went at quiet hours, so we don't know how long the evening wait is.
- Only one post said who they came with (a friend). We don't know how it suits solo diners, families or children; the high chair appears only in a copied listing.
- Only one post gave prices (26,000 won for grilled gopchang, 11,000 won for the spicy soup); nobody gave a total for a meal.
- The phone number (0507-1301-4367) appears in one post's copied listing only; nobody tried booking, which is mentioned only in a copied listing.
