Wangttukbaegi Gamjatang Saechammaru
왕뚝배기감자탕 새참마루 Saecham is the snack or light meal brought out between bouts of farm work, and maru is an old word for a wooden floor or a peak; wang-ttukbaegi means a king-size earthenware pot, and one post says the pot is bigger than a head.

A pork-bone stew shop in the Dream Tower building of Okjeong's central shopping strip in Yangju. It serves big earthenware-pot gamjatang (27,000/34,000/41,000 won for small/medium/large on the August 2025 menu) and 10,000-won bone soup, but several posts came for the stir-fried octopus instead. We read 9 posts from December 2024 to July 2026; 8 describe eating there, and one is a sign maker's note about producing the menu board.

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
- Three posts say the portions are large: one says the pot is bigger than a head, another calls the stew generous, and a third says flat glass noodles and rice cakes made the octopus and pork dish hefty.
- Three posts say side dishes can be topped up, mostly from a self-serve bar; one went back for cabbage three times and asked staff for more tofu twice. One post notes extra pancake costs 2,000 won.
- Two posts asked for a spice level when ordering the octopus: one wanted it mildly hot, the other asked for hot, found it about Shin Ramyun level, and would have liked it hotter.

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.
Getting inside
The address says first floor of Dream Tower, but no post described the floor from experience.
No post says whether there is a step at the entrance or whether a wheelchair or stroller can get in. We don't know.
No post mentions the restroom, its location or whether it is separated by gender. We don't know.
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.

Posts that followed a TV spot
Of the 8 posts we gathered, 1 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.

What we do not know
- Prices went up: the octopus and pork was 15,000 won on an August 2025 menu, and a November 2025 post says everything was 1,000 won higher. No later post gives prices, so we cannot confirm what a meal costs now. Two posts called it inexpensive.
- Opening hours appear in three posts, all copied from listings, and they disagree: two say 11:00-23:45, one from December 2024 says 11:00-23:00 daily with no break and no closing day.
- Two posts give a phone number, but they differ (031-848-4746 vs 031-8484-4746). One post booked three tables ahead.
- No post mentions waiting for a table; that means no one wrote about it, not that there is never a wait.
- Who people came with does not cluster: one post each came alone, with friends, with parents, and as a booked group.
- No post describes getting there by subway or bus. We don't know.
