1.Booyas Hongdae

For Koreans, when it comes to gopchang, they have a strong impression that it should be eaten in roadside tents or noisy restaurants!
And because it's quite heavy, it's something you find it difficult to eat alone or with someone with a small appetite..

"Cup gopchang" is a street snack filled with fat gopchang (intestine sausage) in a cup!
It's looks like you're walking around with a cup of coffee, so very neat!

It's ideal for people who want gopchang alone in a small portion!

4. Gyeongridangil GALO HALO
GALO HALO is at gyeongridangil, and it's super crowded on weekends!
It's not like the traditional Korean chicken stick snack, but at GALO HALO, it's an upgrade of the traditional chicken sticks, and it's wonderful! +_+
Unlike other street chicken sticks, GALO HALO is popular with many different sauces.
For example: rice cakes chicken sticks with soy sauce like at Sulbing is absolutely marvelous.
To Koreans, the spicy flavours are the best sellers.
Chicken Stick Wrap
Since I'm Korean, I'm quite at ease with these wrap style chicken sticks!
It's not a small chicken stick, so you'll be able to share a stick with a friend.
