Tteokbokki and soju are a classic combo! If you're looking to mix things up, you could try pairing it with makgeolli, a slightly sweet and fizzy rice wine that complements the spicy, savory flavors of tteokbokki really well.

For a perfect drink pairing with tteokbokki, try a sweet and tangy Korean drink like Sikhye. Its sweetness balances the spiciness of the dish, and its refreshing nature complements the flavors beautifully. It’s a unique choice that’s sure to impress your guests!
