The McDonald’s outlet near Sinchon Station Exit No. 3 has closed for good after serving its last customers on its final day of business Wednesday.
The restaurant was a landmark in the district, selling burgers for 20 years in the vicinity of Yonsei University.
When news hit social media in mid-March that the outlet was going to be shuttered due to rising rent, online reactions ranged from disbelief to shock. The McDonald’s sign was taken down from the Sinchon Station branch at around 1:30 a.m. Thursday.

The fast-food chain still has other branches nearby, such as the one near Yonsei University’s front gate and another near the adjacent Hongik University. A Burger King restaurant remains near Sinchon Station Exit No. 3.
