1) Just outside Gwangjang Market

3) some "cheaper places" in Jongno (any exact known?)
4) asking for "kay-go-gi" or "bosintang"("s" or "sh" spoken/written there?), probably in the info booth on the Sejong-daero avenue, where they had a good english last time.

Which one would you, local (or half-local) guys suggest to a lonely traveller, wanting to just taste a dog with the priorities:
1) sureness of a dog meat
2) good price/power ratio
3) easy access by the public transport from icn/gmp/city center (t-money already in possesion)?
Thank you for your cooperation and feedback!
Namdaemun market has a dog restaurant named Tong il-ok (통일옥). A boshintang restaurant for 60 years. Close to Seoul station and city hall. It was 11,000 won per bowl and 13,000 for the special, bigger bowl of boshintang.
