An old-style 'king-size' pork cutlet house in the Myeongdong Art Nouveau Centum building on Myeongdong 7-gil. We read 2 posts, from 5 to 13 October 2026, and both describe eating here. Soup comes first; the big cutlet (14,000 won) arrives with rice, cabbage salad and macaroni salad. Both posts ordered the set of jjolmyeon noodles with a mini cutlet.

What sets it apart

  1. One post says the salad and soup are refilled without limit, and that they had the soup topped up twice.
  2. Both posts touch on portions: one calls the noodles generous, the other ordered the big cutlet plus the noodle set and left some of the cutlet.

Where it is

Map showing where Wonjo Namsan Wang Donkkaseu 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.

Getting inside

No post says from experience which floor the shop is on; the 'ground floor' in the address is the registered listing.

Nobody wrote about steps at the entrance or wheelchair and stroller access. That means we don't know, not that there is none.

No post mentions where the toilet is.

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

  • Only one post gives a price — 14,000 won for the big cutlet. We do not know what the noodle set or the spicy cutlet costs.
  • On opening hours, one post only remarked from the posted sign that there seem to be no closing days; no post wrote down the times.
  • No post describes walking from a station or bus stop. One title mentions Euljiro 1-ga Station exit 6, but the post itself says nothing about the walk.
  • Neither post says whether they had to wait, so we don't know about queues.
  • Neither post clearly says who they came with, so we can't say whether it suits solo diners, friends or families.
  • No post gives a phone number, and we don't know whether it takes reservations.
