Euljiro Nogari Alley (을지로 노가리골목)

Euljiro Nogari Alley is a clustered street of pubs (hof) in central Seoul's Euljiro district, specializing in nogari (dried-and-grilled juvenile pollock) served as a draft-beer accompaniment in the casual outdoor pub-and-table setting that defines Korean late-night drinking culture. The alley features a cluster of small hof establishments running tables out into the alley itself during operating hours, serving cold draft beer alongside grilled nogari (with the small dried fish brought to the table whole and torn by hand for sharing), Korean-style fried chicken, and other casual snack options. The Euljiro setting — between Seoul's central business district and the broader Euljiro working-industrial neighborhood — gives the alley a distinctly working-Seoul-after-hours atmosphere that has made it one of central Seoul's most cited nightlife destinations.
