Gwansan Sikdang 관산식당

Located in Goheung, South Jeolla Province, this historic establishment has specialized exclusively in mul-naengmyeon for over 30 years. The defining characteristic of the dish is the broth, served with a sherbet-like slush of ice. This refreshing and deeply savory soup is topped with ground perilla seeds, creating a unique style that blends elements of both soup and seasoned noodles. The nutty aroma of the perilla seeds combined with the icy broth produces a flavor profile rarely found in other noodle shops. The noodles offer a chewy, elastic texture that balances well with the broth. The restaurant closes early once ingredients are sold out, so arriving before the lunch hour is recommended. It is widely regarded by locals as a top destination in Goheung for naengmyeon.
