“The jokbal-style boiled pork neck and Pyeonyuk are charming”

  • Moksal Suyuk (boiled pork neck)BestBoiled separately like jokbal, crunchier as it cools
  • Pyeonyuk (pressed sliced pork)Like a French pâté, with every cut visible — upscale
  • Meori-gogi (boiled head meat)Decent, worth ordering extra

Liked

  • The owner's family is kind
  • The owner really knows meat
  • Very large portions

Downsides

  • You have to season the soup yourself
  • Not ideal to come only for Sundaeguk

The owner couple and their son are great
Would return
Said to have visited 4 times before the video
Good for
Drinking sessions with boiled pork and soju
Value
A ₩8,000 Sundaeguk is hard to find these days
Tips
  • Avoid the lunch rush
  • Season with salted shrimp and ground perilla seeds
  • Order the boiled pork and Pyeonyuk together
