모녀 Mother and daughter — the two who run this Korean drinking house, and the name over the door
Korean · Gwanak-gu, Sillim-dong
Data as of · Published ·
A Korean drinking house on the ground floor of a lane behind Sillim's Byeolbit street, three to five minutes on foot from exit 7. A mother and a daughter run it — hence the name, which simply means "mother and daughter" — and one writer found exactly that: the mother cooking, the daughter working the room. It opens at five in the afternoon and shuts at two in the morning, and five posts from 2026 say Fridays and Saturdays now run to three. A 300cc glass of draught beer costs ₩1,900. Dishes meant as a meal run from ₩10,000 for the rice-cake stew to ₩35,000 for boiled pork with oysters, and the drinks list — distilled spirits, fruit wines, makgeolli, wine — is long for a place this size. One wall is a screen, and there is usually baseball or football on it. One customer has been coming since 2022. The posts we read run from October 2024 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.
What sets it apart
- What people write about here is not the food but the wall — fourteen of seventeen mention the big screen. Twelve call it a screen, one a projector. Four saw something actually playing on it, and all four times it was baseball: other tables watching the game, the game left on while the room filled. A regular says it comes into its own for a World Cup or an Olympics, and another writer is already planning to watch the next one here over soju. Five say the size of it makes the place good for a group. There is also a second television, an old cathode-ray set, and what it shows is the room itself, live — two writers caught sight of themselves on it and wrote about the surprise.
- Eleven posts call it cheap and not one calls it dear, and nearly all of them are pointing at the same thing: ₩1,900 for a 300cc glass of draught. Thirteen quote the figure and eight drank it. They do not agree on what the beer is, though — two writers in 2025 name Filite, a low-malt beer, and say plainly that this is why it costs what it does, while one in June 2026 names Terra. Which is current we could not establish. On the food side, one writer points out that side dishes elsewhere in the neighbourhood start above ₩10,000 and here they begin at a little over it; another calls ₩35,000 for pork with oysters a bargain. Prices appear in posts from December 2024 to June 2026 and nothing has gone up in between — the limited boiled pork is ₩25,000 in March 2025 and ₩25,000 in June 2026; the egg toast is ₩12,000 in both years. Plenty of writers name a dish without naming its price, so what people actually spend may range wider than this.
- Nine posts say the portions are generous and none says they are mean. The dish that draws it most is the egg toast: four people ordered it, all four remark on the size, and one left more than half — though she had already finished a plate of tofu, kimchi and pork. The soy-egg rice is written up as nearly two portions, and recommended if this is your first stop of the night. The dumpling-and-mushroom hotpot goes deeper than it looks, enough for three, and the kitchen tops the broth up when it boils down. The boiled pork, the oyster version and the chicken-and-intestine stew all get the same word. One writer asked for more cabbage leaves with the oysters and was given a heap.
- The posts split on whether it is quiet: five say it is, one says it was not at all. The five are measuring it against the rest of Sillim — somewhere to talk rather than shout, a room for people who find the usual drinking streets too much. The one who disagrees, writing in October 2024, explains why: there are no partitions and no separate rooms, so when a large party sat down there was nothing between them and him, and he left early. The two accounts do not contradict each other. Five other posts recommend the place precisely because it takes groups and works for a work dinner — which is the same fact seen from the other side. If you are going for the quiet, go at a time when the groups are not there.
- Six posts call the place clean, and four of the six are talking specifically about the toilet — kept properly, says one; another, who admits she judges restaurants by them, found nothing to complain of; a third was sorry he had not photographed it. Two note that the toilet is inside the premises, one of them with some relief: in a row of small shops down a lane, an outdoor shared one is the common arrangement. Nobody says whether it is divided by sex, and nobody says whether there is a step at its door. Away from the toilets, one writer took the water glasses, small plates and chopsticks laid out in advance as a sign of a tidy kitchen.
- Five writers say the meat had no off-smell; one says it did. The five are talking about the boiled pork (three of them), the smoked duck and the oysters. One of them volunteers that he hates that smell in pork and found none here, and rates the kitchen above shops that do nothing else; another catches only a faint medicinal note from the braise and does not mind it. Both who ate the oysters say there was no sea-smell, and one adds that they had been properly purged. The one dissent is the tofu-and-kimchi platter in May 2025, where a couple of pieces of pork carried something — not enough, she writes, to spoil it. The other writer who ate the same dish does not mention it either way.
- Eight writers say how they got there in their own words, and every one of them came by public transport. Five put it at three to five minutes' walk from exit 7 at Sillim, on lines 2 and the Sillim light rail; one draws the route — a hundred and seventy metres straight, right at the first traffic light into the udon-shop lane, another eighty metres. Another got off a bus at the Byeolbit-street stop and walked. Two warn that it sits far enough into the lane to be missed: one says only regulars would find it, and admits he only did because he was walking off a meal. Landmarks the posts offer are a fried-chicken shop next door and the name of the eating alley it stands in.
- Three writers had been before, one of them since 2022. She moved to the neighbourhood that year, has been coming since, notes in January 2026 that the place is still standing, and puts her own count above five visits; three years ago, she says, she worked through the spirits list bottle by bottle. Another, also writing in January 2026, says this was her fourth time. A third came back in June 2026 after a year of walking past and finding no free table. Six more say they mean to return and nobody says they will not — though as all seventeen are different people, we cannot tell you whether any of the six did.
- The length of the drinks list is what earns this place the word "요리주점" — a kitchen with a bar rather than a bar with snacks. Three posts describe spirits, fruit wines, makgeolli and wine side by side; four single out the Korean spirits and the highballs built on them. Prices given are ₩10,000 for the house plum highball and ₩9,000 each for the lemon one and the one named after the shop — black tea with a distilled spirit called Seoul-ui-bam. The plum and lemon highballs can be made without alcohol: one writer ordered hers that way and was glad of somewhere that works for a friend who does not drink. Two writers tried a distilled soju called Badahanjan Donghae and neither was won over; one compares it to a supermarket brand, the other switched back after a glass. Two others say the unfamiliar bottles are reason enough to come back with a clear evening.
- There are no partitions and no private rooms — it is one room. Two writers say so from having sat in it: one in October 2024, complaining about the noise that follows from it, and one in June 2026 who describes a table set back from the rest as feeling a little separate without actually being so. A January 2026 post says she sat in "a room-like seat", which is the same thing put kindly. One mentions window tables, another a recessed corner she thought would suit a couple. The tables seat four as standard and are pushed together for larger parties, by one account.

Not one post mentions a step, a stair or a ramp. That the dining room is at street level, two writers confirm from having seen it: one counted the free tables from outside before going in, finding barely any; another had judged for years, walking past, how busy it looked. Neither remark works from anywhere but pavement height. In seventeen posts nobody climbs or descends anything. Still, nobody has stood at the door and said whether there is a lip, or how wide it opens. That is not a no; it is that we do not know. Two writers place the toilet inside the premises, but none gives its size or the width of its door, and none says whether there is an accessible cubicle. One notes a high ceiling and one the space between tables, which suggests room to move, though neither was thinking about a wheelchair when he wrote it. Two posts say dogs are welcome, both in the register of something heard or copied rather than seen, and not one writer brought a dog.
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 18 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
- Twenty-eight posts read, eleven set aside, seventeen counted. The shop's name is an ordinary Korean word for "mother and daughter", so ten posts arrived here having nothing to do with it: a pastry café of a similar name across the river, a scallop restaurant in Sokcho, a tteokbokki stall in an Anyang market, a fritter stall inside another market in this same district — and several where the words are not a shop name at all, but a daughter writing about a night out with her mother, or a leather workshop's account of two American visitors. None of their check-ins carried our name or our street number, so out they went. The eleventh is about this place but says of itself, in its last line, that it was written from the listing page — it recites review counts and puzzles over an average rating of zero, and never says what anyone ate. The seventeen that remain were written by seventeen different people.
- Nobody writes about queuing. The closest anything comes is a June 2026 writer who had wanted to return for a year and never found a free table — which is not the same as standing in a line. Three posts describe a comfortable room, and all three name the hour: at opening, early on a weekday, six o'clock on a Sunday. Four describe it full — packed on a Monday evening, barely a free table, busier than expected — but all four are looking around after they have sat down. Whether you can book is also unclear: the words appear only in header blocks, alongside a coupon offered for booking through the map app, and no writer says they booked.
- No post declares a sponsorship, and two state plainly that they paid. The other fifteen say nothing either way. Two, though, write that they came "on a good opportunity" without saying what the opportunity was — which may mean an invitation and may mean nothing. We left both as silent and note it here. A post from December 2024 and one from May 2026 reproduce the shop's own copy, a paragraph about a warm room run by a mother and a daughter where Korean food is paired with Korean drink. The May 2026 one has nothing else in it and was dropped from the denominator. The December 2024 one names five dishes and describes eating them — she laughs at catching herself on the old television — so we counted it, and record the fact here. It gives no prices, so nothing from it went into the menu figures. We found no cluster of near-identical posts on one day, and no group sharing a hashtag block word for word.
- Three different phone numbers appear. The most common and most recent is 0507-1388-7322, in five posts between August 2025 and June 2026. Two posts from March 2025 give 010-2186-8453, and the listing-scrape post we dropped gives a third number again. The 0507 prefix is a forwarding number issued by the map service, so it need not be the shop's own line. This is a place where a person should check. Three posts give the same Instagram account, @mo.nyeo. On the name: the licence and the sign both say simply 모녀, with no branch to distinguish it — but the word is also ordinary Korean for "a mother and her daughter", which is why ten of the twenty-eight posts that reached us were about something else entirely.
- The hours look changed rather than disputed. All fourteen posts that give an opening time say five in the afternoon. On closing, the nine written between October 2024 and January 2026 say two in the morning, every day — and the five written from May 2026 onwards all say Fridays and Saturdays now run to three. The split by date is clean enough to read as an extension at some point in between, though we could not confirm it with the shop. Five posts give last orders at half past one, and all five predate January 2026, so nobody has written down what last orders are on the later Friday and Saturday nights. Three say it never closes for a day off. For a place that advertises two in the morning, not one writer stayed past midnight.
- On what to order, this shop gives us no answer — seventeen people are spread across twenty-five dishes. The most-eaten thing is the egg toast, at four; then the limited boiled pork at three; everything else is two or fewer. Twelve dishes were eaten by more than one person, and in only one of the twelve do the accounts disagree: the spicy rice cakes, which one writer puts at the heat of an instant noodle and another found milder than expected. Two dishes are written up badly. Of the tofu, kimchi and pork, both who ate it were surprised by cold tofu — one wonders whether it is meant that way in summer. And of the clam pasta, the one writer who ordered it left most of it, finding it neither one thing nor the other and gritty with it. The ₩13,000 sweetcorn pancake is copied off the menu by three writers and eaten by none of them.
