A barbecue restaurant on the second floor of the Samsung Building on Saemal-ro 9-gil in Guro, grilling Korean pork belly and Korean beef on cast-iron plates, with rice dishes such as beef tartare bibimbap at lunch. We read 5 posts from December 2025 to October 2026; 4 describe an actual visit. All 4 said the dining room is large, and they came as friends, a family with a child, and a work team at lunch.

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
- All 4 visit posts said the room is big; one said it was much bigger than it looks from outside, another noted generous spacing between tables, fine for a team dinner.
- One family who has come back many times with their child noted a high chair and a play room. A copied listing in another post says the same, but we did not count it.
- A post from a December 2025 lunch said meat orders on weekday lunchtimes get 10% off, and that they asked for a japchae refill.

One post wrote from experience about parking: free, in the building's ground floor, and never hard to find a spot. Another only pointed drivers to a lot next to a real-estate office.

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
2 posts say it is walkable from the station.

The restaurant is on the second floor; two posts took the elevator up from the ground floor, which opens right at the entrance.
Beyond the elevator, nobody wrote about a step at the entrance or getting in with a wheelchair or stroller. We don't know.
No visitor wrote about where the toilets are. Separate men's and women's toilets appear only in one post's copied listing.
No one mentioned: 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 5 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
- Two posts touched on getting there by train: one said it is closer to Guro Station than Sindorim, the other just said near Sindorim. Nobody gave a walking time.
- Nobody wrote about waiting for a table. One post booked ahead and found the table already set.
- One post each came with a friend, with family and a child, and with a work team, so we can't say who mostly comes here.
- Two posts give the same opening hours, 11:30 to 22:00 daily with a 15:30 to 16:30 break on weekdays, but both copied them from the listing.
- None of the visit posts gave prices. Pork belly from 16,000 won, beef sirloin at 36,000 won per 150 g and 12,000-won lunches come from one copied listing in April 2026, so we don't know what a meal actually costs.
- Two posts copied the phone number 0507-1355-8872. One post said they booked ahead.
