A 24-hour gamjatang (pork spine stew) restaurant near the entrance to the Korean Folk Village in Yongin's Bora-dong, with a loyal following across the region. The kitchen operates at remarkable speed - orders typically arrive within three minutes - and the restaurant stays busy even on weekday lunchtimes, drawing diners from as far as Bundang. The pork spine bones come generously loaded with tender, clean-tasting meat free of any off-flavors, while the broth delivers a deep, old-school savoriness. A small-size pot with fried rice added is ample for two people. The fried rice is notably made with perilla leaves instead of kimchi, giving it a mild, nutty character. One distinctive touch is how the kkakdugi (radish kimchi) is cut into large chunks resembling chonggak-mu (ponytail radish). Takeout orders are packed in buckets, a practical choice for outings. Danish-sourced pork bones are used, and while the stew itself earns consistent praise, the side kimchi draws mixed reviews. A public parking lot sits in front of the restaurant, though it fills up quickly and double-parking may be necessary.
