Has the Namdaemun scarf guy gotten married? Age, Instagram, recent status
2026.11.05 10:47
The Namdaemun Scarf Guy who has taken over the Shorts & Reels algorithms these days! I’ve compiled everything from his marital status and estimated age to his Instagram address and recent updates on his reopening after a temporary closure.
1. Did the Namdaemun Scarf Man really get married?
If I look at the comments section of Shorts, there are really a lot of people wondering if I'm married, saying things like, "Boss, please say you're single," and "I would feel really betrayed if you were a married man."
To start with the conclusion, he/she has never officially revealed whether he/she is married or what a wedding will be held!
Aside from showing herself selling scarves at her shop or posting short videos, she rarely reveals her personal life.
In online communities, there are speculations that he might be single based on his distinctively relaxed demeanor or the fact that he isn't wearing a ring on his finger, while others speculate that he might be married for other reasons. Please keep in mind that this is merely speculation by netizens, and the official facts remain 'private'.
2. What is the real age of the Namdaemun Scarf Man?
I'm sure many of you tilted your heads while watching the video, wondering, "Just how old is this person?"
Opinions are really divided on this. Because of his beard and the casual, nonchalant aura typical of market vendors, some people think he is in his late 50s or early to mid-50s. On the other hand, looking at his skin, facial features, and trendy outfits, there are many who say, "If he shaves, he looks totally youthful, like he's in his mid to late 30s."
3. Where can I find the Namdaemun Scarf Man's Instagram & YouTube?
For those of you asking, "Where on earth can I watch the original video?", I will also summarize the account information.
YouTube Channel: Namdaemun Dadaguri
Store Location: 3, Namdaemunmarket 4-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul
You recently casually posted a short video of your face on Instagram with the caption "On my way to work," and the reaction exploded with thousands of comments pouring in within just a few days. "You left a cool comment saying, 'People around me told me to communicate, so I’m posting, but it’s not my thing,' but even that was so typical of you that it made me burst out laughing. The fans are going crazy, asking for 'communication every day' and saying, 'It feels like you’re talking even though you aren’t.'"
4. From temporary closure to police dispatch? A tumultuous recent update
Actually, as its popularity skyrocketed, some ridiculous things happened. Not only did people want to buy scarves, but crowds of people with cameras trying to take selfies also swarmed into the narrow alley in front of the store all at once, causing a complete paralysis with no room to even pass.
Ultimately, the owner declared an emergency 'temporary closure' on October 31st out of concern for safety accidents and damage to neighboring merchants. They took a temporary break from business, saying, "I will reorganize for safety and recover before returning."
They reopened for business on November 4th, four days later, but a massive crowd gathered again, eventually leading to a scene where even the police had to be dispatched to maintain order. According to eyewitness accounts, the owner didn't seem excited about making a lot of money; instead, he looked exhausted and full of worry, saying things like, "I'm anxious and afraid every day that visitors might get hurt," and "Should I continue doing this?"
Therefore, for the time being, they will not be announcing specific opening or closing times, but will be operating flexibly in a guerrilla-style manner based on on-site safety conditions. If you plan to visit, please pay special attention to your safety and show consideration by not obstructing the passage of nearby merchants.
