+### Setup MongoDB pod and service
+
+Before installing the Yorkie cluster with Helm chart, you need to set up a MongoDB pod and expose it as a service. This is crucial since internal MongoDB installation is no longer provided.
+
+First, create the `mongodb` namespace with the following command:
+
+```bash
+$ kubectl create namespace mongodb
+```
+
+Then, create a MongoDB pod named `mongodb` in the `mongodb` namespace with the following command:
+
+```bash
+$ kubectl run mongodb --image=mongo:latest --port=27017 -n mongodb
+```
+
+Next, expose the MongoDB pod as a service to allow other pods to access it with the following command:
+
+```bash
+$ kubectl expose pod mongodb --port=27017 --target-port=27017 --name=mongodb --type=ClusterIP -n mongodb
+```
+
+By following these steps, you ensure that the MongoDB pod is running and accessible to other pods within the cluster.

 ### Add yorkie-team Helm chart in your local repository
 
 After Istio is installed, you need to add yorkie-team Helm chart repository in your local repository to install Yorkie cluster.
