Grandma’s Legendary 50 Cent Korean Pancakes Loved for 24 Years / Korean street food
Jul 23, 2026
Hello, this is King Food. Today, we visited a grandmother who has been selling Korean pancakes for just 500 won for the past 24 years at Jeonnong-dong Rotary Market in Seoul. Each pancake is generously filled with chives and batter, then cooked until golden brown. Even today, one pancake still costs only 500 won. Despite the continuous rise in ingredient prices, she has kept the same price for many years. She sells only about 200 pancakes a day, and so many customers visit that they often sell out before the day is over. Watch the full process of her cooking the pancakes on a hot griddle, the customers enjoying them, and the story of why she has kept the price unchanged for 24 years.
