She opened the food stall to support her family when they came on hard times. She first learned to make these dishes from her mother. But she has been perfecting her recipe for over a decade.

But the best thing about eating at her street food stall is the experience she gives you lots of smiles and genuine care for her customers. Gwangjang Market in Korea is chaotic, and there’s so much good street food everywhere, but she definitely stands out. 

Street Food

Street Food is a food-centric docuseries on Netflix from the creators of Chef’s Table.
