A sixty-year-old sundaeguk institution in Gaegun-myeon, Yangpyeong, Gyeonggi-do, producing a bowl that is distinctly different from standard sundae-guk offerings. The broth incorporates dried radish greens simmered in bone stock, yielding a uniquely savory and refreshing depth that is difficult to find at other sundaeguk restaurants. The sundae sausage is plump and chewy, and the boiled pork head meat is clean-tasting and tender, especially enjoyable when dipped in the mustard sauce. Adding the house-made doenjang sauce along with salted shrimp and spicy dadaegi paste deepens the broth considerably. The roasted seaweed served as a side dish is surprisingly high in quality, and the kimchi pairs refreshingly well with the stew. Portions are substantial enough that the regular size is plenty, and pricing remains reasonable for the quantity. Weekend mornings draw a queue, but fast turnover means the wait stays manageable. Driving is the practical way to reach the restaurant, and the location fits well into a Yangpyeong area driving itinerary. The facility shows its age, and cleanliness standards do not meet modern expectations, a factor to consider before visiting.
