Bar

Iyueomneun Hanjan

이유없는 한잔 Iyueomneun hanjan means 'a drink for no reason'; the sign underneath reads, roughly, 'You never said it, but you had a reason.'

Compiled from 11 blog posts read in fullSources →

A fusion drinking spot on the second floor, above a chicken shop, right outside Exit 1 of Yeongdeungpo Station. Six posts ordered the house's signature beef-tendon stew (red or white broth; white is 28,000 won), five the shrimp-topped water-parsley pancake (20,000 won), and three each the beef tartare (25,000 won) and bossam (27,000 won). One pair paid 61,500 won for two dishes and drinks. Five posts copy a notice saying it opens at 4 pm and closes on Tuesdays. We read 12 posts dated 17 September to 16 October 2026; 11 describe an actual visit. Most follow the same promotional template, so weigh the counts accordingly.

Rows without a count: 5 of 6 posts.

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

  1. The windows look onto Yeongdeungpo Station. Seven posts mention the big windows, and four of them describe seeing the station entrance or the tracks.
  2. Of the six posts that ordered the tendon stew, three had the red broth and three the white. Five call it spicy or peppery, including one that had the white broth. One describes it arriving pale and turning red as the paste underneath dissolves.
  3. A free bowl of snacks comes with drinks. Six posts mention it: corn cones in three, puffed-grain snacks in two, popped corn in one.
  4. You order from your seat: three posts used a tablet or kiosk, three a QR code on the table. One notes the tablet also handles staff calls, water and wet wipes.

  1. Six posts saw or used the event that gives a fruit punch for a receipt review plus an Instagram follow. Two actually got one, and one said the portion was anything but small. Posts that only repeated that it is offered were not counted.
  2. One wall has a large projection screen. Two posts found baseball on it, one describing the whole room reacting together; two others found an animated film playing.
  3. Two posts say the portions are large; one pair ordered only the stew and the pancake and ended up urging each other to finish. No post calls it expensive; two say the prices are easy or good value.

Where it is

Map showing where Iyueomneun Hanjan 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

8 posts say it is walkable from the station.

It is up a flight of stairs on the second floor; nine posts say so from their own visit. Six mention climbing the side staircase, one calling it fairly long and another steep. Three note a chicken shop on the ground floor.

We don't know whether a wheelchair or stroller can get in. Six posts mention climbing stairs, but none mentions a lift or a step at the door. That means nobody wrote about it, not that there is none.

Only one post covers the toilet: inside the bar, unisex, stocked with sanitary products and a hair dryer. No other post mentions it.

No one mentioned: Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Accessible toilet. 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 12 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

  • Most posts here follow one template: 11 of 12 repeat the same search phrases and introduce the story box and the fruit-punch event in much the same order. Eight present the tendon stew and the mapo tofu-kimchi as signatures, yet no one ate the latter. One post discloses sponsorship, one says it was 'a good opportunity', and the rest say nothing.
  • Ten posts mention the box where you leave a story for the owner to read out with a requested song, but all repeat what they were told; nobody heard one read. Two say stories are read a week later on the same weekday.
  • No post mentions waiting. One found it packed on the eve of a holiday; another found it quiet until tables filled after 7 pm. That is an absence of reports, not proof there is no wait.
  • Only three posts say who they went with, all with friends. Many call it good for a date, but none says they went as a couple, and nobody went alone.
  • Five posts give the same opening hours, 4 pm to 1 am Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, 4 pm to 2 am Friday and Saturday, closed Tuesdays, but all copied from a notice. One post says daily, 4 pm to 1 am. Three put last orders 30 minutes before closing.
  • Prices seem to have changed: a 17 September 2026 post lists the shrimp pancake at 17,000 won and the brisket ramyeon at 13,000, while posts from 11-12 October list 20,000 and 14,000. The pancake's name also differs, so we can't confirm it is the same dish.
  • Four posts copy the phone number 0507-1308-5145. Claims that you can book through Naver or reserve for groups are also copied; no post says they booked.
