Mijin is a Korean restaurant in the Jongno district that produces fresh buckwheat noodles daily in the building's basement manufacturing facility. The establishment focuses on serving these handmade noodles as its signature offering.
The restaurant was founded in 1952 and has established itself as a recognized destination for authentic cold buckwheat noodles in Seoul. Over more than seven decades, it has maintained its reputation for serving this traditional dish.
The restaurant serves meals in traditional stacked tray baskets alongside a large kettle of chilled dipping sauce and essential Korean side dishes. This presentation style reflects how classical Korean meals are arranged and shared at the table.
