Tokkiwa Geobukjeon
토끼와거북전 Jeon and makgeolli behind Seongsu station, with a ten-thousand-won lunch set
Data as of · Published ·
Tokkiwa Geobukjeon is a jeon house — Korean savoury pancakes — on the first floor of the Samyeon building, right behind exit 3 at Seongsu station. You do not enter from the street: you walk through the building's passage to the back, which is why several writers say they walked past it even though the door is under a minute from the exit. It is two places in one day. At lunch there is a single ten-thousand-won set — stir-fried pork, rice cooked to order in a stone pot, five side dishes, a soup of the day — and the room fills with people who work nearby. In the evening it becomes a drinking house for jeon and makgeolli, and when the weather holds they put a tarpaulin over the parking space out front and set tables there. Two posts say 'since 1984'; one explains that the father-in-law runs lunch and the son-in-law runs the evening. The posts we read run from May 2025 to September 2026.

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.
These hours are counted from the posts we read. Shops change them without notice — check Naver Place before you go.

What sets it apart
- Seven writers give the outdoor tables as the reason they come back. The shop stretches a tarpaulin over the parking space out front and puts tables under it; one regular writes that once the car park turns into a beer garden, makgeolli starts to register as water. One moved from inside to outside when the rain stopped. Two say outright that they sat outside — October 2025 and April 2026. One notes that at lunchtime the outdoor tables are not set out at all, and one was told the outdoor seating runs until half past midnight.
- Thirteen writers record the free starter: seasoned bean sprouts and kimchi. One notes how unusual that is for a drinking house and guesses they come off the lunch set. Five single out the kimchi; four asked for refills. One says you could drink on the bean sprouts and kimchi alone. Three separate posts describe something sent out unasked — seaweed soup when the owner noticed it was someone's birthday, pineapple sorbet for guests who had come from Sapporo, watermelon in high summer.
- Sixteen writers put it within a minute of exit 3 at Seongsu station. One clocks it at under thirty seconds; four bother to give directions — out of the exit, into the building in front of you, round to the back. One post carries Naver's own 'about five minutes on foot' pasted in, while the writer's own sentence a line later says 'right outside the station'. Two mention being able to drink and then step straight onto the subway.
- Two writers describe signatures written straight onto the wallpaper. One transcribes a line left by the comedian Ji Sang-ryeol — roughly 'may your days be full of warm things; a cup of makgeolli, one jeon' — and notes the actor Park Myung-hoon's name as well. The other just says the signatures are there on the wallpaper, unfussed about. Nobody counts them.
- The two halves of the day differ in how fast food arrives, too. Three lunchtime writers say it lands within minutes and the room turns over quickly. One evening writer was told the jeon is fried to order and takes about ten minutes, so she ordered it before the drinks — and in the same post records that her tofu-and-kimchi order was simply missed, which she puts down to how loud and full the room was.

Three different answers about parking, and only four writers who actually parked. Five say the first hour is free — but then the rate splits again: two say ₩4,000 an hour after that, one says ₩6,000 an hour up to ₩30,000, cash or bank transfer only. One says the lot is shared with the lamb-skewer place next door and is paid. One says flatly that there is no parking. Four of those conflicting posts are lifting Naver's shop-information box, and those writers came by subway. We count only what people saw for themselves, so the four counted here are the ones who parked or described the space with their own eyes. One writer adds that the street parking nearby is free after seven in the evening — one writer, once.

It is on the ground floor — but not the ground floor you can see from the street. One writer puts it plainly: a ground-floor unit, visible as soon as you are in the building's car park. The '1F, unit 101' in the other posts is mostly the address line copied from Naver. There are no stairs to climb, but four writers say you have to go through the Samyeon building's passage and round to the back, watching for the sign.
Not one writer says whether you can get in with a wheelchair or a pushchair. In twenty-four posts there is nothing about a step at the door, a ramp, or how wide the doorway is. Several describe the route — through the building's passage to the back, with the outdoor tables in the car park — but none looked at whether that route has a lip to climb. This is not a claim that access is bad. It is a gap in what we know.
The toilet is not inside the restaurant; it is shared and in the building. Two writers say so. One found the key tied to a makgeolli bottle and the room itself on the building's ground floor — 'not what you'd call spotless, but not neglected either'. The other notes there was no soap. Whether it is separated by sex, and how many stalls there are, nobody wrote down.
No one mentioned: In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · 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.

Posts that followed a TV spot
Of the 25 posts we gathered, 2 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
- Only two writers say anything about queuing, and both queued. One, at about eight on an April 2026 evening, waited a little while. The other, on a rainy day in October 2025, was told there is no booking: you write your name on a sheet by the door and wait outside. Four more posts say the room was full without saying they waited — a full room is not a queue, so we have not counted those. Whether you can book is also unsettled: one writer was told it is difficult, while another simply reproduces Naver's tick-boxes for 'reservations' and 'groups welcome'.
- Four posts declare that they were sponsored — October 2025, February 2026, and two in April 2026. Two of the four are by the same blogger six months apart; one says the sponsorship was for Instagram and the blog write-up was volunteered. Two posts state that they paid their own way. The remaining eighteen say nothing either way, which means they did not say, not that they paid. One post discloses a Naver shopping-affiliate commission, but that was for a drinking-cup link inside the post and has nothing to do with the bill, so we have not counted it as sponsorship. Four posts went up in five days in early April 2026, two of them sponsored — but the four order different dishes and record different prices, so we do not read them as one commissioned batch.
- The opening hours agree on the numbers and disagree on the days. Of fifteen posts that give hours, fourteen say eleven in the morning to ten to one the next morning; all ten that give a last order say midnight; all twelve that give a closing day say Sunday. But for that same 11:00–00:50, six write 'Mon–Sat', three write 'daily', and five give no days at all — and all three that say 'daily' also say 'closed every Sunday' in the same breath. That contradiction belongs to those posts, so we have left it as written rather than tidying it away. The afternoon break is 15:00–16:30 in three posts and 15:00–17:00 in one; the other eleven do not mention a break, which means they did not mention it. One post alone puts closing at one in the morning.
- The lunch set has been renamed and the jeon platter has gone up. A December 2025 post says the set used to be sold as 'ureong-ssam jeongsik' and is now 'jeyuk-ssam jeongsik'; a May 2025 post still uses the old name. Both give the same ₩10,000. For the platter, an August 2025 writer notes it had gone up ₩2,000 from the year before, which puts it at ₩23,000 before the ₩25,000 — though we never read a post that says ₩23,000. Tofu-and-kimchi is ₩20,000 in both posts by people who ordered it, and ₩17,900 on the menu listing the shop itself put up. We cannot tell which is the price today.
- Why we count twenty-four and not twenty-seven. Of the twenty-seven posts that passed matching, one is entirely a review of a beef-tripe place a block away (Eussyara Gopchang, 96 Achasan-ro); our name appears only in a link at the very end, so it is out altogether. Two more are not visits and are out of the denominator: one is the shop's own menu transcribed into four languages, with '(insert photo)' placeholders still in it and not a single line about eating; the other is a round-up of 'places in Seongsu with parking', where our entry is one sentence. Of the twenty-four that remain, two are diaries that move through many restaurants — for those we read only the passage about this shop, and counted only that.
