After less than a year within opening, Korean street-food concept abruptly closes a location

Last December, an authentic, fast-casual-style Korean concept opened at Bubbly Hall, located at 6065 Central College Rd. in New Albany. Less than a year later, Seoul Food on the Go announced their sudden closure. But this won’t be the end for them.

“It is sad to say goodbye, but Seoul Food on the Go in Bubbly Hall has permanently closed as of Tuesday, November 26,” said their Facebook post. “It was not an easy decision since we loved serving delicious Korean street food to you, our valued and loyal customers. So many heartfelt thanks to you, for your understanding, and for being part of our community.”

Seoul Food on The Go, which first started as a ghost kitchen near Grandview, brought traditional Korean street-food & comfort food to us, specializing in tteokbokki, which their menu describes as, “Sweet and savory Korean rice cakes in Gochujang (a red chili pepper paste) or soy sauce. There are six different choices of this tteokbokki (pronounced like “duck-boke-key”), including a spicy traditional, jjajang (a black bean sauce), bulgogi beef, curry, and more. All of their tteokbokki’s are vegetarian besides the beef option.

Dennis Kang, the owner, worked and lived in the heart of Korean culture, according to their website. When he moved back to Columbus, he missed Korean comfort foods and longed for a taste of home, which is how Seoul Food on the Go was born. 

It’s not the end for Kang and his restaurant. They recently opened a stand at The Little Grand Market in Columbus, located at 710 Grandview Xing Wy., and you can still find them there!
