MaDang is one of my favorite little Korean malls. I don't think it can really be called a mall and def not a strip mall - nope - Courtyard really is the best way to describe MaDang. I legit love coming here because it's just so gorgeous! Clean, always organized, the usual elderly grandpa patrolling around as security looking for those doing wrong, lol! There is a huge parking garage which always has parking. Be sure to get validated and cross your fingers to hope a movie at CGV doesn't get out the same time you want to leave. That's the only downfall of MaDang, exiting at night from the garage is hit or miss. Last night, I got right out! Other nights, been stuck for 45 minutes. So, truly hit or miss. There is SO MUCH good at MaDang. Shopping, eats, the aforementioned coffee shop, bookshops...let me highlight a few favorites: ~ Heuk Hwa Dang - their ice cream and coffee is great, adorabley cute space! ~ H-Mart Supermarket - who doesn't love groceries?! lol ~ Beard Papa - cream puffs are nomz. ~ Daiso - I love deals and Daiso is full of them! ~Sul & Beans - Patbingsu deliciousness to amaze your out of town friends, lol. ~Somi Somi - Ah-Boong, a fish-shaped waffle cone filled with your choice of filling and topped with soft serve - similar to taiyaki and so good. Kpop Music Town K-Pop Store - self explainatory. Jung Kook army bias here. I been rocking with Kpop since Seotaiji and H.O.T. so I'll always be a fan. ~Aladdin Bookstore - friends always want to go here for Korean books while in town. ~Pelicana Chicken - KFC straight from Korea with great happy hour deals. ~CGV Cinema - movies in Korean! The fact that Korean shopping malls exist in KTown is truly dope af. I love MaDang, love bringing my out of town friends, and I'm truly a MaDang regular.

I parked my car here today and asked the staff how much the parking fee was. She told me $4. I parked the car here and waited for me to come back from dinner. She told me she was charging $30 for parking because I walked out of the plaza. She's cheating. This is not good. Everyone must be careful about this scam. This employee should be fired Big liar! ! !

I’m always happy to shop at HMart. Now two different locations in California. I have also been to HMart in Tigard, OR, and in Dallas, TX.

There are lots of food stores (delicious.) However, there were lots of flies near outdoor food stores. I recommend dining indoors.

Really cool architecture here that combines an appropriate fusion of Korean and American stylistic elements. Great location for grocery shopping at hmart, fried chicken at a nearby kchicken spot, or even catching a show or concert at the nearby concert venue

We always come here to shop and hangout in the little courtyard and square. From pastries to Daiso to cosmetics to grocery shopping at hmart. It's got a lot going for a tiny area.

Always busy and plenty to do. Parking is straight forward with good validation policies. It is my 2nd time back and the restaurants are very good. The area is clean and safe.

MaDang the Courtyard is just that: a small courtyard in the middle of densely populated Koreatown. Literally steps from the Wilshire/Western station of the Metro's Purple line, it has a lot of accessibility if you're coming here using public transit.However, if you're driving in, be sure to enter the parking garage on Manhattan Place, the next street west of Western Avenue. You can turn onto Manhattan Place from either direction off of 6th Street, but you can only make a right onto the block from the Wilshire Blvd side. Wilshire has a center median so don't even think about making a left hand turn!Not only that, it is packed solid on weekends! Lots of families, couples and the like to hang out or do grocery shopping at H-Mart. You can expect to wait in a traffic line just to get into the garage. It's narrow and there's validated parking in a lot of the stores so keep that in mind!I've only come here for easy, cutie shopping at Daiso - a favorite store of mine. I've started to frequent Jeong Yuk Jeom, whose meat dishes are so good, I think about it when I'm not there! I've also been to the CGV cinemas a few years ago to see Pirates of the Caribbean on the 360-degree screen, which is out of this world! And a fun, unique experience for cinephiles. They also show plenty of Korean cinema as well. Paris Baguette is here - I love their little pastries!But as a courtyard, MaDang is just a courtyard. Plan ahead for weekend visits and have fun!
