The snack shop will be closed for 30 years…an open-run procession

image text translation

(1)This is because the owners Maeng Ye-soon 62 and Park Gap-soo 67, who have been guarding the store, located in Eunma Shopping Center in Daechi-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, have become difficult to do business for health reasons
(2)As the news spread that the snack bar, which has long captivated the tastes of Daechi-dong residents, will be closed, customers are recently lining up in front of the store to taste the memories for the last time
(3)I met Naver’s map and ran to the snack page right after I heard that they were going to stop operating I’ve had it for 22 years, and it’s the last time I was a student, but when I went there for a long time and tried to eat it with my memories, I was disappointed to hear that it got smaller and disappeared
(4)The store originally planned to close at the end of December last year, but it extended its operation for about a week due to customers’ support for a little more opening
(5)Customers who had been here for decades were busy photographing the boss and the store diligently cooking food
(6)It was around 1990 that the couple started making and selling tteokbokki here
(7)When her husband was unable to work due to a chronic disease, his wife Maeng jumped into the living line and worked until 3 a.m. to 4 a.m. every day, not only for business but also for preparations for the next day
(8)Maeng said, “It is still heartbreaking that I haven’t been to school when my children were in school because we were doing business together every day, but she has already graduated from college and even got married, so she must have done her job as a mother.” Even if I die now, I have no regrets.”
(9)When asked why he was constantly a regular, he replied that he did business with a conscience that he didn’t use any red pepper powder seasoning and didn’t give food that he didn’t eat to others
(10)Little regulars who became adults gave gifts or showed tears when they rushed to visit the news of the closure. Maeng said, “The little kid who came when I was small said, ‘I became a neurosurgeon doctor at a university hospital, so I’ll check you if you come later,'” and said, “There were customers who hugged me and cried, and I thought I hadn’t dealt with the children in vain.”
(11)Her husband, Park, said, “As rumors spread that it would be closed, customers were so crowded that I was worried about how to endure the remaining days, but considering that you’ve come all the way here, I’m very grateful, sad, and disappointed.”
