Ziyang disclosed the internal sales of the store filmed during this period through social media such as Instagram and YouTube, and some netizens who saw the price tag and menu photos raised a price controversy.
The price is higher than that of regular snack shops, and there is not much quantity.

If you look at the published snack bar menu, the price of tteokbokki is 6500~9000 won, the side menu is 8,000 won, and the meals are priced at 10,000 won.
The price of a set menu for two people over 30,000 won was evaluated as “it is burdensome because it is a snack restaurant menu”.

In this video, Ziyang measured the weight by subtracting the weight of the tteokbokki dish on a scale and compared prices with other brands.
He said, “It was never easy to know and do business. Fans can see it and donate with the proceeds, so it was in a good way. He told me a lot, but I am very confident in the store.”
