Haejangguk (Hangover Soup) Tour

The morning-after soup that locals swear by - and you should try while you can.

Haejangguk in Seoul is a 6AM-2AM affair. 24-hour spots in Jongno serve drunks, taxi drivers, and aunties side by side. You will not find this in a guidebook.

Why this niche

Haejangguk varieties (seonjiguk / kongnamul / beoseot / gomtang) hit different. Trying 3 over a Seoul trip = the most local thing you can do.
