Jeil Eobeoi Sundae Yeouido-jeom
제일어버이순대 여의도점 A second-floor Yeouido soup house whose blood sausage is stuffed and boiled fresh each morning
Korean · Yeongdeungpo-gu, Yeouido-dong
Data as of · Published ·
Jeil Eobeoi Sundae is a blood-sausage soup house on the second floor of the Jeil Building, a few minutes from exit 2 at Saetgang and just behind the KBS annexe in Yeouido. It takes its name from the building. Across the road stands a more famous rival, and several writers here say they first came because that queue was too long, then kept coming. The sausage is made on the premises each morning, only as much as the day will sell, and the broth is a doenjang-leaning one, deliberately left under-salted. At noon the room fills with people who work nearby, a good number of them eating alone. Eleven in the morning to nine at night, closed from half past three to five, shut on Sundays. 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
- The sausage is made here. Five writers say it is made fresh each morning, in the quantity that day will sell, and one notes the photographs of the making pinned up in the room. Glutinous rice, blood, meat and vegetables packed into a fat casing — three writers describe a single piece filling the mouth, and it is a different object entirely from the glass-noodle sausage of a snack bar. Four mention the television programme that once held the place up as an honest kitchen. What we can vouch for is that the shop says this and the writers repeat it — nobody watched it being done. One did catch, in the sausage, something like mint, as though put there to cut the iron of the blood.
- It is upstairs, and invisible from the street. Thirteen writers say so, and one recalls circling the ground floor wondering where the restaurant had gone. Two describe the way in: through the entrance of the Jeil Building, then up the stairs on the left, and it is right there. The position filters the crowd — one calls it a little off Yeouido's main run, while three say they came up precisely to escape the queue at the better-known house across the road. The building is old and so is the room: wooden tables, the ordinary furniture of a soup house. Two writers warn that anyone hoping for something smart and modern will be disappointed.
- If pork smell is what puts you off soup like this, this is a safe bet. Eight writers say there is none — "almost nothing, quite pure", "not a trace". The other side is heard too: one notes that a large-intestine sausage will carry some scent and asks, reasonably, what it would mean if it did not; another finds a little, not enough to trouble him, and less than at comparable places. What it is instead is under-salted. The broth comes out deliberately mild: six writers reached for the salted shrimp, and four insist the dressed garlic chives belong in the bowl. "Deep and heavy" and "clear and light" both appear in these posts; the one writer who eats at two of the branches says the Yeouido broth is the richer of them.
- Signed photographs line one wall. Seven writers mention them, and one lists the actors by name. The shop has also lent itself to a television drama, by one account. The reason is geography: the KBS annexe is next door, and old eating houses in broadcasting districts acquire walls like this. The descriptions of the customers match — mostly men, a good many of them older, a steady trade in takeaway, and, as one writer puts it, a following among the long-serving of Yeouido.

Parking

The posts contradict each other on parking, and nobody actually parked. An August 2025 post says ₩2,000 per half hour and points you at the public car parks nearby; a September 2026 post says flatly that there is none. Both lines sit in a block of emoji-headed facts, and neither writer mentions arriving by car. So we counted neither. We counted one thing only: the writer with the fixed template marked his parking row "no car park, or very difficult — use the ones nearby", which is his own judgement rather than a copied list. The building does have an underground level. Which account holds, we could not establish.

Getting there
Naver Map has a full English mode — Settings → Language → English. In Korea it gives better walking and transit directions than Google Maps.
Getting inside
| Second floor | 13 of 16 posts |

It is on the first floor up, and not one post mentions a lift. Thirteen of eighteen writers say it is upstairs and two describe walking up, yet lifts, wheelchairs, prams, ramps and thresholds appear nowhere at all. So we do not know whether there is any way up but the stairs. What the posts establish is this much: an old office building, in through the ground-floor entrance, and a staircase inside. How many steps, whether there is a handrail, whether another route exists — nobody wrote it down, so it is worth a telephone call first.
No one mentioned: 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.

Posts that followed a TV spot
Of the 21 posts we gathered, 5 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
- Three shops in Seoul carry this name, and they are not the same shop. The original is in Namyeong, across the river in Yongsan; this one is in Yeouido; a third opened in Sangdo-dong in 2022. One writer sets out the history: the Namyeong house from 2009, this one opened by family in 2013, the third a decade later. It reads as a family spreading out rather than a franchise, though we could not confirm that. What matters is that they do not taste alike — a customer of two of them writes that the Yeouido broth is the richer and the Sangdo one the cleaner. Four of the thirty posts we collected under this name turned out to be about the other branches. Check the street number and the second floor before you set off.
- There is a lunchtime queue — but not always. Four writers met one on a weekday: one arrived before half past eleven to a full room and found people waiting when he left; one got straight in and knew she was lucky; one notes there are simply not many seats. Two found no queue at all, on a Saturday just before noon and in the evening. It is not a large room — one writer counted twelve tables, another warns that the four-tops are pushed together in pairs, so a party of four can feel it is sharing. Three call the place small, one found it bigger than expected. And it shuts in the afternoon: five posts give a break from half past three to five. Two writers say the evening is the comfortable time to come.
- Not one writer describes the lavatory. One keeps a fixed template at the foot of every review, and in the lavatory row of that template he has written "did not use". That is the only place the word appears in eighteen posts. Whether it is inside the restaurant or off the corridor, and whether it is separated by sex, nobody knows. All we have is that this is the second floor of an old office building.
- This is a place to eat alone in — though that too is something we are repeating, not counting. Four writers describe the room rather than themselves: plenty of solo diners, no awkwardness in taking a table by yourself, a fair few dropping in alone on the way home. Few say who they came with — one with a manager from work, one with a spouse, one posting photographs of settings for two and for three; the rest are silent. We have no count of how many came alone. Evenings look a little different: two writers saw office parties, and two note how many tables are drinking with their food.
- Both main dishes went up by a thousand won over these two years. A November 2024 post has the soup at ₩10,000 and the set at ₩13,000; six posts from August 2025 onward have ₩11,000 and ₩14,000 — although an October 2024 post already says ₩11,000, so we cannot fix the date of the change. Writers disagree about value: two call it comfortable, even good, for this postcode; one finds ₩11,000 a touch steep. One more thing worth flagging — the telephone number differs between posts. Five give one number, an April 2026 post another. The one on our page is the latter — it is the number on the food-business licence, while the other looks like the forwarding line a listing service supplies. We have not rung either to check.
