Near Ikseon-dong. Jongsamyuk offers an open-air barbecue setting near Jongno 3-ga Station Exit 6. As evening falls, the space fills with lights and an energetic crowd of international visitors, creating a scene reminiscent of an outdoor festival. The international clientele is prominent, giving the area a global energy. The most sought-after cut is the pork skirt, which contains enough fat to remain tender and moist. Pairing the meat with wasabi sauce adds a sharp lift to the meal. While the meat quality is standard, the surrounding environment adds to the overall satisfaction. Orders are placed via QR codes, and side dishes like kimchi and lettuce can be replenished at a self-service bar. The restaurant spans two floors and serves Asahi draft beer. Grilling outdoors involves smoke from surrounding tables, though indoor seating includes ventilation systems. During colder months, vinyl tents are set up for warmth. On clear days, queues typically start around 6 p.m., making an early arrival practical. The setting feels comfortable for solo diners, and many international travelers visit alone. The address is 8-1 Donhwamun-ro 11-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul.
