Murah (무라)

Ranked third, Murah in Hongdae’s Sangsu-dong is a hotspot for cold ramen enthusiasts. The Mango Girl waited eagerly for her Donkatsu Cold Ramen (₩8,000) amidst a bustling line. The broth glistened as ice cubes clinked, offering a unique texture. While the meat was tender, the slightly salty broth intensified towards the end, leaving a watery aftertaste. Time was scarce for the Mango Girl, urging her onwards to the next destination!
