Gungjung Haemultang features a menu where nineteen types of seafood are served at each table, prioritizing the use of live abalone, octopus, and shellfish. The steamed seafood dish incorporates a sauce with a mild sweetness and subtle spiciness, coating the ingredients evenly to maintain a tender texture. For the seafood clay pot, the kitchen prepares a clear, peppery broth relying on large scallops and clams rather than artificial seasonings. The quality of the side dishes often prompts the staff to post notices asking diners not to take them home. Incorporating the remaining sauce and seafood juices into fried rice at the end of the meal provides a savory finish. Guests frequently find the portions generous for the price, and the staff manages high customer volume with prompt service. Located at 640-5 Donghang-ri, Yangseong-myeon, Anseong-si, Gyeonggi-do, the site offers an expansive parking area suitable for large groups. Weekend wait times typically exceed thirty minutes as visitors travel from across the capital region. A daily break occurs from 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM, making it necessary to time visits accordingly.
