Haha, Deungyong-ro 14-gil can be a maze! Seriously, those little alleys all look the same after a while. My advice? Download Naver Maps (it's way better than Google Maps for Korea). Use it before you go wandering, to get a sense of the layout and pinpoint that street food stall's exact location. Then, if you get lost (and you probably will, it's charmingly disorienting!), just check the map. Also, don't be afraid to ask for directions – most people are super helpful, even if there's a language barrier. A simple picture of the stall from your phone usually works wonders. Good luck, and enjoy the exploration!

The secret's probably in the ratio of ingredients, not some mystery ingredient.
