Compiled from 1 blog posts read in fullSources →
A nakgopsae (octopus, tripe and shrimp stew) spot on the 4th-floor concourse of the IPark Mall inside Yongsan Station. Sets pair nakgopsae or naksamsae with a puffed steamed egg and rice: 34,000 won for two, 51,000 for three, 65,000 for four on the September 2026 menu. You pick one of three spice levels. We read 2 posts from August to September 2026; only 1 describes an actual meal, the other is one entry in a list of station restaurants, so most of what follows is one person's account.

What sets it apart
- The one visit post says you walk in straight from the station concourse without going outside, and suggests looking for the Gwangju-Jeonnam-Jeonbuk business lounge sign opposite. It adds that the stew takes time to cook, so leave a margin before your train.
- The menu lists three levels, from not spicy to really spicy. The one visitor had the medium level, found it manageable with rice but still hot, and suggests stepping down a level if you don't handle heat well.
- One post records 51,000 won for a three-person set, about 17,000 won each, and didn't find that heavy for a station meal, though drinks or extra noodles add up quickly. It is the only post with a price.

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
1 posts say it is walkable from the station.
Getting inside
The floor comes only from the address (4th floor); no one described how they got up there.
No one mentioned steps at the entrance or wheelchair or stroller access. We don't know.
No one said where the restroom 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.
How to read these posts
- Posts saying nothing either way1 of 1 posts
Posts that followed a TV spot
Of the 2 posts we gathered, 1 went up on a single day right after a TV spot and show no sign of a visit. They retell the broadcast, so we left them out of the counts.
We do not discard them. That a TV spot produced a burst of posts is itself something worth knowing about a place, and a star rating will not show it.

What we do not know
- We don't know about waits. The visitor went around 3:30 pm on a weekday when the place was empty and said they couldn't tell whether queues form. That doesn't mean there are none at lunch or dinner, only that no one has recorded it.
- Opening hours are unconfirmed. Only the list post copies 10:00-22:00 daily with last order at 21:30; the visit post gives no hours, though it says orders were taken around 3:30 pm on a weekday.
- Only one post says who they came with (a group of three). Whether it suits solo diners is unknown; the list post merely recommends two or more.
- No post gives a phone number, and we don't know whether reservations are taken.
