The Charm of Pies at Hogwadang<\/h2>\n

Seoul Forest<\/a> On February 4, 2026, the day I visited near Seongsu-dong<\/a> Seoul Forest<\/a>, I got off at Ttukseom Station after finishing my key chain shopping at the Dongdaemun Market. Feeling hungry, Hogwadang appeared right in front of me, so I walked towards it.<\/p>\n

Unlike the long waiting lines I remembered seeing on Instagram Reels, when I visited, only one team was waiting, so I was able to enter the store right away. This was a take-out specialty store.<\/p>\n

\"Storefront<\/p>\n

There were three types of pies available on the display shelf inside the store, and freshly baked, warm apple pies were displayed separately on a stand.<\/p>\n

A Diverse Lineup of Pies<\/h3>\n

At Hogwadang, you can find ‘Sweet Pumpkin Pie’ topped with soboro and ‘Taco Pie’ with tomatoes and cheese. In particular, the freshly baked ‘Apple Pie’ caught my eye with its mouth-watering visual.<\/p>\n

Pies Perfect for Gifting<\/h3>\n

They were prepared to be packaged in beautiful boxes, making them perfect for gifts. I purchased a total of four pies: two apple pies, one sweet pumpkin pie, and one taco pie.<\/p>\n

Enjoying Pies as Take-out<\/h3>\n

Three of the purchased pies were individually wrapped in plastic, and one pie to be eaten immediately was provided wrapped in parchment paper and warmed in the microwave.<\/p>\n

\"Individually
\n\"Packaging <\/p>\n

I tasted a slice of pie while walking through the quiet Seoul Forest<\/a>. The taco pie was crispy on the outside, but the cheese and tomato sauce felt a bit separated, though the taste was good. The freshly baked apple pie, from the first bite, I thought it was a taste that both men at home would love. The apples were cooked with a satisfying texture, and the moderate sweetness made it a flavor that anyone, young or old, would enjoy. I even bought another apple pie on my way to Seongsu Station after my walk.<\/p>\n

\"Eating
\n\"Cross-section <\/p>\n

Although Ttukseom Seoul Forest<\/a> and Seongsu Station are only one stop apart, there was a noticeable difference in the number of tourists. Except for The Coffee and Ferment Cafe, other places had a quiet atmosphere. As the weather gets warmer, the situation might change with an increase in visitors to Seoul Forest<\/a>, but if you like crispy pastry pies, I recommend visiting Hogwadang.<\/p>\n
