The facts
Chung Dam IL MAK (청담1막) is a premium Makgeolli (Korean wine) bar-cum-restaurant located in the luxurious cheongdam-dong neighborhood.
It offers about 20 kinds of special hand-selected premium Makgeolli that you cannot easily get elsewhere, along with a variety of soju from all regions of Korea.
The most representative and popular makgeolli is "Boksoondoga." You'll be surprised by how gently the liquor, mixed with natural sparkles, can fit your appetite. It's definitely worth trying.
Chung Dam IL MAK is also known for serving great Asian mix food such as Soy Sauce marinated Pork called "Gakuni," which is the perfect complementary dish to try with Makgeolli and even wine. It also has course meals at 53,000won and 89,000won.
The bar's glass dome ceiling and big window that has a great view of the cheongdam-dong street brings out the best atmosphere to enjoy the premium Makgeolli and delicious food.
Mr. Hwang, who is the executive chief, considers Chung Dam IL MAK as a "social dining" bar where you can experience a different style of drinking culture with premium makgeolli and a superb taste of food. Adding to that, there is a live music performance of Korean underground jazz and indie bands every Saturday to bring more fun in social dining.
You can also see a wall full of Korean celebrities' signatures who have visited this bar next to the entrance. They include Jang Guen Suk, Son Ye Jin, Lee Min Jung and many other movie and k-pop stars.

I just gotta head my way out there again!!! Chungdam 1 Mak is such an awesome place to relax and enjoy. I had Purple Sweet Potato Makgeolli with two other dishes and they taste great. Check my review here on my blog: http://pheurontay.com/chungdam-il-mak/

Great atmosphere. Great taste. I think it's one of the best makgeolli bars out there. I really like how there's a big window with a great view as well.
