복성반점 Hadan's seafood-jjamppong house, no pork in the broth

Data as of 2026-09-27 · Published 2026-09-30 · Compiled by Gilpost

Bokseong Banjeom is a Chinese restaurant in Hadan-dong, Saha-gu, Busan, within walking distance of Hadan station. It is known for one dish: a jjamppong built without pork, on prawn, squid, cuttlefish and clam with a great deal of onion — so it comes out cooling and faintly sweet rather than fierce. ₩10,000 for the jjamppong, ₩7,000 for the jjajangmyeon, ₩28,000 for a tangsuyuk of the old school. There is no second branch; the licence dates from 1985 and the posts all say a third generation is running it. Half past ten in the morning until nine at night, last orders at ten to eight, closed Tuesdays. The delivery boxes are still stacked outside — they still ride out themselves. Since the shop appeared on a Baek Jong-won programme people come from all over. The posts we read run from June 2025 to September 2026.

The basics

3 posts say it is walkable from the station.

When it opens

Of 16 posts: 15 wrote Daily 10:30–21:00.

Counted from what bloggers wrote in their posts; we did not confirm it with the restaurant. Where the values differ, it may be a change over time rather than a disagreement, so we show when each one was written.

These hours are counted from the posts we read. Shops change them without notice — check Naver Place before you go. Place — check hours

What people order

The most ordered dish is jjamppong (짬뽕) — 13 of 16 posts.

The prices here are what bloggers wrote down in their posts, and they may have changed since. Check Naver Place for the current menu and prices. This list is not a menu board — it counts what bloggers actually ordered and ate. Check on Naver Place

What to order

• 짬뽕13 ate it
  jjamppong₩10,000

  The reason anyone knows this place. **There is no pork in the broth — it is built on seafood alone**, as one writer points out, and the others reach for the same words: clean, cooling. Prawn, squid, small cuttlefish, clam meat and scallop go in, and **so much onion that the broth turns sweet**

  **₩10,000**, and six posts between July 2025 and August 2026 all give that. **You choose the heat** — mild, a bit hot, hot, by four accounts. **Seven writers say the portion is large**: one nearly asked whether she had been given the double; another had to lift the noodles clear before she could find them. **On the heat they disagree**: one ordered it hot, found none at all and reached for the chilli flakes; another found the mild version quite fierce. One says the onion sweetness eventually wearies her. **A November 2025 regular writes that there used to be more seafood in it, before the television programme.**

• 짜장면4 ate it
  jjajangmyeon₩7,000

  **The old kind.** Two writers reach for childhood — this is not the chain version, one says, it is the noodle she ate as a girl. Another notes there is nothing arranged on top. Two mention how much onion and pork is in the sauce

  ₩7,000. Three couples ordered one of these and one jjamppong and shared. One writer, on the large size, says there is a great deal of it. Descriptions: neither too sweet nor too salty, a faint smoke to it; the sauce thick

• 탕수육3 ate it
  tangsuyuk₩28,000

  **Not the chewy modern kind — the old one.** Two writers describe a thin coat over a solid piece of pork, one of them calling it the tangsuyuk of school graduation days. Two more say the meat is thick without being tough

  **₩28,000**, and two writers say that is why they went without: too much for two, one says, marvellous for three or more; the other ordered the fried dumplings instead. **The large is ₩10,000 more** (a party of four report paying it). Two recommend mixing chilli flakes into the table soy sauce and dipping. **One note on the sauce**, from a writer comparing shops elsewhere: the pork is genuinely good, but now and then the sauce comes impossibly sweet

• 간짜장3 ate it
  ganjjajang₩10,000

  The sauce comes on the side — and **in the Busan way, with a fried egg on top.** One visitor from elsewhere was startled enough to say so. Two note that the onion and pork are chopped fine

  ₩10,000. **Opinions split**: two find the sauce rich and generously made, while a writer who runs an Italian restaurant of his own says it is seasoned lightly enough that anyone who likes a dark, sweet ganjjajang may find it plain

• 사천짬뽕2 ate it
  sacheon jjamppong₩12,000

  **What to order if you came for heat.** Five writers say the plain one is not hot, and two of them point you here instead

  ₩12,000. One writer warns that **the two look identical in the bowl and are not remotely the same** — she does not take heat well, says it left her stomach burning, and says she still thinks about it

• 삼선짬뽕2 ate it
  samseon jjamppong₩11,000

  The seafood-heavy version. Both writers who ordered it say the same thing: the prawns kept coming

  **₩11,000 — but this one price comes from elsewhere.** None of the eighteen who went wrote it down; the figure is copied from the board by a writer who says plainly that she did not visit. Nobody explains how it differs from the plain one

• 삼선간짜장1 ate it
  samseon ganjjajang₩11,000

  The ganjjajang with seafood added

  One post, September 2025, gives ₩11,000. Only one writer ordered it

• 우동1 ate it
  udong

  The Chinese-restaurant kind of udon, in a clear broth drawn from seafood and vegetables

  No price given. The one writer who ordered it had it alongside the jjajangmyeon and found it cleared the palate — useful to know if someone at your table cannot take heat

Sides, and what comes with it

• 군만두3 ate it
  gunmandu

  Dumplings fried until they crisp; one writer finds pork, glass noodle and a good deal of pepper inside

  **No post gives a price.** One warns that it comes crisp and goes soft quickly, so eat it at once. Another ordered it because the tangsuyuk was too much food

• 공기밥1 ate it
  gonggibap

  A bowl of rice

  No price given. One writer ordered it at the end to mop up what was left of both the sauce and the broth

Parking

16 posts say you cannot park. None say you can.

There is no car park — sixteen posts say so, and the ones who actually drove are specific. In front of the shop there is room for three cars at most, two of them say, or realistically one or two; a third describes a narrow road and fierce competition for the space. Between eleven and two you may leave a car out front, several note, but not after that. So people park elsewhere. Two places recur: the public car park beside Hadan primary school, and the one at Hadan subway station on Hasinjungang-ro. One writer records ₩1,800 an hour at the station. Another followed her satnav, found nowhere to stop and searched for a car park from the kerb. By public transport: three writers say the station is within walking distance, though one says plainly that it is a fair way and you would do better on a bus.

Who came, and with whom

Getting there

Getting inside

If the ground floor looks full, there is a basement. Ten writers mention it. Upstairs is about eight tables for four and looks cramped from the door, but there are stairs down to the right of the entrance and far more room below — one writer found a hall big enough for a works dinner. Three were sent down because the ground floor was full. It does not seem to be open all the time: a regular reckons they only open it at busy hours, and the same writer adds, flatly, that she has eaten down there once and the ground floor is better. On the stairs themselves, one warning: they are steep, so take them carefully.

Nobody writes about getting in. Across all eighteen first-hand posts the words wheelchair, pushchair, ramp, step and threshold do not appear once. That is not the same as saying there is no step — we do not know. There is one adjacent remark: a writer sent downstairs warns that the stairs to the basement are steep, so take care. Since a full ground floor at lunchtime means going down, anyone for whom stairs are difficult would do better to come outside the lunch rush and get a table upstairs. Ring the shop if you need to be sure: 051-291-7834.

The lavatory is inside the building, but the posts do not agree on which floor. Four mention it: one simply says it is indoors; one that it is indoors and shared between men and women; one that it is in the basement; and one that she went down to the ground floor to find it. The shop uses two floors, so people sitting in different places may well have written different things — but we have no basis for saying which is right. Only one writer addresses whether it is shared, so that is not confirmed either. Nobody mentions an accessible one.

No one mentioned: Second floor · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Accessible toilet. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

Posts that followed a TV spot

Of the 26 posts we gathered, 10 went up on a single day right after a TV spot and show no sign of a visit. They retell the broadcast, so we left them out of the counts.

We do not discard them. That a TV spot produced a burst of posts is itself something worth knowing about a place, and a star rating will not show it.

When the posts appeared

What we do not know

• The numbers on this page rest on eighteen posts, not thirty. Of the thirty we gathered, one was about a different restaurant — a shop called Bokseong near Bujeon station, whose own author is careful to say that the place on television was this one in Hadan — and eleven contain no record of anyone eating here. This is what happens to a restaurant that has been on television. Posts by people who never came keep accumulating: four are round-ups — the ten best jjamppong in Korea, four near Hadan station, where to eat after each hiking route — that give this shop a paragraph each; four more are map-app entries copied across. One of those opens with an invented statistic ("a full 73% of people suffer after eating jjamppong") and scores the food at "99% freshness" without saying what was ordered or what it cost. Another gives an address on the wrong street entirely. Some are honest about it. One writer ends with a note: this is not a visit report, it is a memo assembled from published information and recurring review points. Another says she meant to eat here and ran out of time, so she only smelled the place as she passed. Those two sorted themselves; the rest we sorted by reading.
• When you go is nearly the whole question. Three writers queued and three did not. Lunchtime and weekends bring a line, say three — and two of those add in the same breath that it moves quickly. Against that, three walked straight in at around two on a weekday or half past one after the lunch rush, and one found a single free table at half past eleven on a Saturday with nobody waiting. If you are thinking of a late dinner, last orders are at 7.50pm — the door closes at nine but they stop taking orders long before. Fourteen posts agree on that. Closed every Tuesday (sixteen agree). It appears to be an easy place to eat alone: one writer, there at six on a weekday, counted seven of the eight ground-floor tables occupied by single diners; another, at two in the afternoon, says the same.
