Goraeseonsaeng
고래선생 Gorae means whale and seonsaeng is the polite word for a teacher or 'Mr.', so the name reads roughly 'Mr. Whale' — the house is a whale-meat specialist.
Compiled from 6 blog posts read in fullSources →
A whale-meat specialist on a side street off Haeundae Beach, near Dongbaekseom. Whale is 90,000 / 120,000 / 160,000 won for small, medium and large, with tuna, sea urchin, skate and spot prawn as well. It opens at 3 p.m. and runs until 7 a.m., and three posts describe it as a second- or third-round stop. We read 6 posts dated October 8 to October 20, 2026, all from actual visits — though all six appeared within thirteen days under the same 'Haeundae restaurant sashimi house' search phrase, and none disclosed whether they were sponsored.

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.
What sets it apart
- Four posts said there was no gamey smell; three of those writers were eating whale for the first time and had worried about it. Several posts mention chili relish and napa cabbage served alongside to cut the richness.
- It is a small room: two posts called it compact. Both posts that counted seats saw two sofa booths, with three regular tables in one and four in the other. One writer found it nearly full in the evening and suggested booking on Naver for groups; another booked ahead.
- One post puts it a 6-to-8-minute walk from Exit 4 of Haeundae Station.

There is no parking of its own. All three posts that drove used a nearby paid lot; one names the Kakao lot across the street.

Where it is
We could not find this shop’s own listing on Naver Map, so the link searches for its Korean name around this spot instead.
From the station
1 posts say it is walkable from the station.
Getting inside
No one described which floor it is on from experience; only the address says ground floor.
We don't know about steps at the entrance or wheelchair and stroller access — not because there is a problem, but because nobody wrote about it.
No one mentioned where the restroom is or whether it is separated by gender.
No one mentioned: Second floor · In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Toilet inside · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. 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.

What we do not know
- Five posts give the same hours, 3 p.m. to 7 a.m., all copied from the listing; none mention a closing day. Three posts list the phone number 051-747-7271. For a meal's cost, one post paid 95,000 won for small whale plus a rice ball, and one party of four had the 200,000-won set.
- Outside food, corkage, takeout, delivery, no Dongbaekjeon local currency and the receipt-review promotion appear only in copied store information, so we did not count them.
- No post mentions waiting in line; that means nobody wrote about it, not that there is never a wait.
- Two posts went with family and one with a friend; none went as a couple or alone, so we can't say how it suits those.
