A 24-hour, 365-day hanwoo (Korean beef) soup rice restaurant at the Yeongdeungpo intersection in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul. The name references its cooking method: grade-1 female hanwoo is simmered for a full three days to produce the intensely rich broth. Each bubbling stone pot arrives packed with over ten generous thumb-sized chunks of tender beef, delivering noticeably better meat-to-price value than most seolleongtang restaurants. The broth follows a rustic country-market style with chili oil, radish, and napa cabbage leaves, carrying a weighty depth with a subtle sweetness from the prolonged simmering. Since the soup is served boiling in the ttukbaegi, it stays piping hot through the last spoonful. The kkakdugi has a sweet umami character that pairs brilliantly with the soup and practically guarantees refill requests, while the baechu kimchi is well-fermented and adds complementary flavor. The restaurant occupies an entire three-story building with solo dining counters and tables on the first floor, using a kiosk ordering system. Beyond this flagship location, directly operated branches are found in Yeoksam, Nonhyeon, Hongdae, and Mullae. The restaurant is immediately accessible from Exit 6 of the Yeongdeungpo New Town underground shopping mall. Late at night, only the second floor operates and tends to be noisier as drinking customers predominate.
