The wait here is long, come early to get the queue number.
They are known for their Jamsoon which is Jampong Soontofu, what a great combination. The spicy seafood broth and the soft and creamy tofu are perfect pairing. It's definitely worth the long wait.

Their specialty is the 짬뽕순두부 - combination of 짬뽕 soup with soft tofu. What a brilliant idea! This area (초당동) is originally famous for their soft tofu, but it wasn't too popular because, in the end, it's just a soft tofu. However, such invention helped gather people from all over the place. We went there on a Friday morning at 1130am, and we had to wait for about 35 minutes. Super delicious (and somewhat spicy!) at a very reasonable price. The parking is limited so try to go by taxi or walk if you can :)
I would definitely recommend this place! would love to go again.

We arrived at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, so we found an empty table. The most famous 짬뽕 순두부 ate. The soup tasted really good. ?

Waited over an hour telling myself "This better be worth it" and worrying it wouldn't be because everyone else with me was thinking the same thing. It was worth it.
Order the 초두부(초당 순두부 백반) [Plain soft tofu meal] & the 원조짬순 [spicy seafood soft tofu] together. You get more side dishes this way.
The 초두부(초당 순두부) [Plain soft tofu] was good but it was the broth of the 원조짬순 [spicy seafood soft tofu] that makes an impact.
The 원조짬순 [spicy seafood soft tofu] was spicy without being ridiculous and had a slight flamed taste.
For those with a weak stomach for spicey food, order both and add the plain soft tofu to the spicy seafood soft tofu.
Another big plus were the side dishes that came with the 초두부(초당 순두부 백반) [Plain soft tofu meal]. There weren't many, but they were good. The mung bean paste soup and the ground bean gruel were good enough to be sold on their own.
• 원조짬순 [spicy seafood soft tofu]: Really good
• 초두부(초당 순두부 백반) [plain soft tofu]: good [but even more worthwhile for the extra side dishes]
