Walking from Hongik University Station Exit 3
Exit 3 brings you out toward the Yeonnam-dong side of Hongik University Station. Seoul’s current tourist guide also identifies the Yeonnam section of Gyeongui Line Forest Park as being near Exits 3 and 4, which makes this side of the station a practical starting point when you’re heading into the neighborhood.
From there, recent route references for Hey George commonly put the walk at roughly 470–500 metres, with estimates ranging from about seven to ten minutes. Your exact path can vary slightly, so using the full street address for the final turns is the easiest option.
- Leave Hongik University Station through Exit 3.
- Head into Yeonnam-dong and set 서울 마포구 동교로46길 42-24 헤이죠지 as your destination in your preferred map app.
- Follow the route into the smaller Yeonnam-dong streets rather than looking for us directly on a major road.
- As you get close, start watching for our green-and-white storefront and HEY GEORGE lettering.
What to Look for When You Arrive
The last part is much easier once you know what you’re looking for. Our storefront has green-and-white signage above the windows, including the number 383-96, along with HEY GEORGE lettering visible at the restaurant.
The frontage has a black railing, brick flooring and a dark green entrance, with American-style signs and decorations around the outside. The restaurant sits along one of Yeonnam-dong’s smaller streets, so the storefront itself is a more useful arrival cue than expecting a large roadside sign.
Once you spot the HEY GEORGE name and the green frontage, you’re in the right place.
Check the Menu Before You Come By
If you like knowing what you might order before making the walk, you can check our current menu first. Pasta takes up the biggest part of it, with five pasta dishes alongside two risottos, House Steak, Waffle Chicken, sides and drinks.

Yeonnam-dong or Hongdae?
If you’re new to this part of Seoul, the location names can be a little confusing. Hey George is in Yeonnam-dong, while Hongdae is the broader nearby area many visitors associate with Hongik University Station.
That’s why you may find us while searching for places around Hongdae even though our actual neighborhood is Yeonnam-dong. Exit 3 is especially useful for this side of the station: Seoul’s tourist information places the Yeonnam section of Gyeongui Line Forest Park near Exits 3 and 4.
So if your plan begins in Hongdae, at Hongik University Station or elsewhere around the station, just make sure your destination is the Yeonnam-dong address above rather than relying on the broader neighborhood name alone.
