123 Jellatto Gwangjang Sijang-jeom
123젤라또 광장시장점 The posts never explain the 123; one guesses it echoes the three-step order (cup or cone, flavor, topping), and Gwangjang Sijang-jeom simply means the Gwangjang Market branch.

123 Gelato's Gwangjang Market branch sits by the market's east gate, close to Exit 7 of Jongno 5-ga Station. You order in three steps: cup or cone, gelato flavor, then an optional topping. Posts list a medium cup at 5,300 won, a large cup at 7,300 won, the plain waffle cone at 6,800 won, most other cones at 7,800 won and the pistachio cone at 8,300 won; the Dubai-chocolate topping adds 3,000 won. Most visitors stopped in for dessert while walking the market. We read 17 posts from 16 September to 16 October 2026; 4 were about the Hannam or Anguk branches and were set aside, leaving 13 visits to this shop.

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
- There is somewhere to sit, but only a few chairs. Eight posts said they sat down inside; one said there were only a few small chairs for waiting. Even those who sat called the space small or limited, and one noted the ground floor had no tables, just a long bench. One pair gave their seats to tourists and ate standing outside.
- It's easy to reach by subway. Four posts said it is right by Exit 7 of Jongno 5-ga Station — visible as you come out, next to Saedongseo Pharmacy.
- Four posts said the scoops and toppings are generous — so full you have to eat carefully. One said the 3,000-won Dubai-chocolate topping came heaped high.
- Three posts called the shop clean despite being inside a busy market; one said it was hard to believe it was in a market, another enjoyed cooling off inside. Two posts mentioned wet wipes, tissues and a bin set out for customers.

- Two posts came with children. One family chose a cup instead of a cone to avoid drips and sat down to eat; in the other, staff let a son taste the sea-salt milk flavor before ordering.

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
4 posts say it is walkable from the station.
Getting inside
| In a basement | yes 0 · no 1 (of 12 posts read) |
|---|
The address says floors 1–2, but we don't know whether customers can use the upper floor. One post didn't go up and only guessed there was seating; another was told by staff it's a storeroom, which we didn't count as observed.
We don't know whether there's a step at the door or whether a wheelchair or stroller fits. No one wrote about it — that doesn't mean there's a problem.
We don't know if there's a toilet in the shop; no post mentioned one.
No one mentioned: Second floor · 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
- No post said it queued. One said it was very crowded, another waited while tourists ahead ordered, and a weekend 4:30 pm visit mentioned no wait. That's absence of reports, not proof there's never a line.
- Four posts went with family. Others didn't say clearly whether they were with friends, a partner or alone, so we couldn't group them.
- Seven posts give the hours as 10:00–22:00 daily, all copied from the listing. One noted it stays open later than the Anguk branch.
- Four posts copied the phone number 0507-1349-4756. No one called, and the only word on reservations is a copied 'no reservations' line.
- Many posts copied the menu prices, but none judged them expensive or cheap. Two people sharing two cones spent roughly 15,000–20,000 won. One post said Seoul Pay wasn't accepted.
- Some of the 13 posts read like commissioned copy: two use the same phrases in the same order, one of them from a company blog. None disclosed sponsorship, so we haven't labelled them.
