Korz is a compact Samgakji coffee stop worth considering when you want to compare matcha drinks with coffee and a pastry. Its listed matcha cappuccino, Uji matcha latte and matcha espresso offer different starting points, while dated customers describe a small, calm room rather than a large destination café.DiningCode

Diningcode's current listing names Matcha Cappuccino and Uji Matcha Latte at KRW 6,500, plus Matcha Espresso at KRW 7,500. It describes the cappuccino as bittersweet Kyoto Uji matcha and the latte as a deep-flavoured version. Uji is the Japanese tea-growing place named in the listing; confirm the day's menu and prices at the shop.DiningCode
In a 12 November 2025 Diningcode review, melocoton7 liked the cappuccino's fine green foam and balance of bitter matcha with milk, finding it not too sweet. They noted the serving was not large. Their takeaway americano had a roasted aroma and a clean acidic finish—a different option if you prefer coffee to tea.DiningCode

The same listing describes the cream puff as a crisp choux shell filled with vanilla-bean custard. Its Lamington combines vanilla sponge, raspberry jam, dark-chocolate coating and coconut. Choose the cream puff for a cream-filled pastry or the Lamington for cake with fruit and coconut; check the display for availability.DiningCode
A separate visitor, Mandui, praised a chocolate choux pastry on 6 July 2025 and liked the atmosphere despite the limited space. That past chocolate version should not be confused with the vanilla cream puff currently listed.DiningCode

Melocoton7 initially walked past without recognising the café, then found it calm and compact beside the residential streets near Samgakji. Check the map carefully and keep your plans flexible if you need several seats together; the space may work better for a small party.DiningCode
