About this spot
Sulbing is Hongdae's go-to spot for fresh, creamy shaved ice that cuts through the summer heat with refreshing sweetness. While their signature sweet potato and red bean flavors are crowd-pleasers, don't skip trying the seasonal matcha or strawberry varieties that define this bustling dessert chain.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order a small cup first to test the sweetness level before committing to a large bowl.
- Visit during non-peak hours to avoid the chaotic lines that form outside every afternoon.
- Ask for extra condensed milk if you want to drown out the intense sweetness of the fruit toppings.
