THE RECORD

identity

The April 2025 menu explicitly includes soda refills. Condiments are a separate part of the experience: a 2020 Gwangmyeong diner received mustard, ketchup, chopped pickle and chopped onion to assemble with the bun and sausage. [2] [4]

THE RECORD

history

A hot dog and soda appear in an August 2014 Korean menu account and an October 2016 review, both from unnamed warehouses. Gwangmyeong provides the October 2020 meal and February 2025 menu; another April 2025 menu adds a later observation. [5] [3] [4] [1] [2]

The board posted to Reddit in April 2023 has an unknown capture date and warehouse. It adds a menu record without filling every intervening year in the history. [7]

THE RECORD

nutrition

A Korean serving-specific calorie label has not been verified. The checked menu identifies refillable soda without a measured volume or fixed drink choice, so U.S. or Canadian combo calorie ranges cannot describe this offering. [2]

No serving-specific nutrition verified.

THE RECORD

prices

The dated reports and photographed board agree on the combo amount shown in the table. Agreement across those observations does not establish an unchanged price between visits or at every warehouse. [5] [3] [4] [1] [2] [7]

THE RECORD

distinctions

The 2020 diner praised the sausage’s snap and the contrast from the chopped pickles and sauces. Their account documents separate onion service on that visit; it does not date removal of onion dispensers or establish present condiment policy. [4]
