Compiled from 9 blog posts read in fullSources →
A charcoal-grill house for aged black pork, about three minutes' walk from Exit 5 of Myeongdong Station, down an alley off Myeongdong 8na-gil. Yuktongryung (the pork house) and Eunseong Yanggopchang share all three floors of the building, and you can order from either menu on any floor, so every post calls the place Yuktongryung. Pork belly with skin and neck are 17,000 won a portion, plain belly 16,000, and the tojang stew most tables add is 8,000. We read 9 posts from July 2025 to September 2026, and all 9 describe a visit. Three disclose sponsorship; one says the writer paid.

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
- Staff grill the meat, and all 9 posts say so. They turn and cut it, put the first piece on your plate, and explain the order of dips (omija sauce, salted fish and so on). One post says that on the second floor the owner seemed to be grilling for every table alone.
- Expect a wait in the evening. The two posts that queued report 35 minutes (registered 6:46 pm on a Saturday, seated 7:19) and about 30 minutes on a Friday evening, both through the CatchTable app. A family that had booked ahead saw a long line outside as they left, and one post found the waiting chairs out front all taken.
- Four posts ordered on a tablet at the table. One notes you can switch its language, and three mention plenty of foreign diners.
- One post points out that every cut can be ordered a single portion at a time, with no two-portion minimum on the first order.

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
6 posts say it is walkable from the station.
Getting inside
| Second floor | 7 of 9 posts |
|---|---|
| In a basement | yes 0 · no 3 (of 9 posts read) |
| Toilet inside | 1 of 9 posts |
| Separate restrooms | 1 of 9 posts |
Seating is spread over three floors. Seven posts sat upstairs or looked around the upper floors, and several were sent up because the ground floor was full. One counted roughly 9 tables downstairs, 8 on the second floor and 6 on the third. Two posts say you reach them by an inside staircase.
Nobody says whether there is a step at the entrance or whether a wheelchair or stroller gets in. Two posts climbed stairs to the upper floors, but none says there is no lift. Three ate on the ground floor.
Only one post describes the toilets: men's on the second and third floors, women's on all three. Two others mention separate toilets, but only as copied listing details.
No one mentioned: 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.

What we do not know
- Seven posts give the hours as 11:30 am to 11 pm daily (last order 10:15 pm); one says it opens at 11. Most of this is copied from the listing, and no post mentions a closing day.
- Meat prices match across posts, but rice is listed at 1,500 won in three and 1,000 won in one. One meal for two (two portions of belly, stew, rice and a beer) came to 51,500 won. One writer added that it is 'not exactly cheap.'
- Six posts give the phone number as 0507-1389-8592, one as 02-778-8592. One post booked through Naver; two joined the queue remotely on CatchTable.
- The 'one of Korea's three meat masters' line, the Blue Ribbon streak, the TV appearances and the master-chef title are the restaurant's own claims, repeated in the same words by three or more posts; we do not rely on them. The registered address says floors 3 and 4, which does not match the floors 1 to 3 the posts describe.
