Data as of 2026-09-27 · Published 2026-09-29 · Compiled by Gilpost

Geundwaejang is a pork grill in a lane inside the Namseong Sagye market, five minutes on foot from exit 1 at Namseong station on line 7 — opposite the Hanaro Mart, as two posts have it. It sells by the 600g geun and by the portion: Duroc belly, Korean pork belly and neck together, and thin frozen belly, plus rice dishes like the minari-and-beansprout bulgogi. Order 600g and the minari is free; order any meat and the fermented soybean stew is free. The pork is part-grilled in the kitchen first, and the griddle dips in the middle so the fat pools for grilling kimchi, beansprouts and minari in. Six or seven round steel tables on a single floor, with banchan you fetch yourself. Open from 11:30 to half past eleven at night, closed weekday afternoons between three and five. The posts we read run from October 2024 to May 2026.

The basics

12 posts say it is walkable from the station.

When it opens

Of 19 posts: 10 wrote Weekdays 11:30–24:00, 10 wrote Weekends 12:00–24:00, 2 wrote Daily 11:30–24:00.

The values differ, but the periods they were written in do not overlap. This looks like a change over time rather than a disagreement, and the top row is the most recently reported. We did not confirm it with the restaurant.

What people order

The most ordered dish is cheongukjang (청국장 (고기 주문 시 값 없음)) — 15 of 26 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

• 청국장 (고기 주문 시 값 없음)15 ate it
  cheongukjang₩3,000

  **Free with any meat order** — and several writers remark on the oddity of a grill house handing out fermented soybean stew rather than the usual doenjang or kimchi one. ₩3,000 on its own, and **another ₩3,000 swaps it for the kimchi stew**

  Four writers single out the size of the tofu and pork in it; one notes the onion and whole beans. Two who normally avoid the smell found this one fine. Three say it forced them into ordering rice. Two cannot quite believe it is thrown in free

• 미나리 (한 근 주문 시 값 없음)11 ate it
  minari₩5,000

  **Order either 600g plate and a bundle of minari comes free.** One post gives ₩5,000 for a second. Another noticed the shop advertising it in large letters on the front

  The thing people write about most. **The griddle dips in the middle so the fat pools there**, and into it go the minari, the kimchi and the beansprouts — almost every post describes this. One writer points out how expensive minari is to buy and how it comes free here. Another feared the herb would bury the pork and was wrong. A third likens its scent to coriander, soapy

• 통삼 한근 (듀록) 600g8 ate it
  tongsam hangeun₩33,000 · ₩36,000

  The house cut: **600g of Duroc pork belly**, **part-grilled in the kitchen** before it reaches you, and a bundle of minari thrown in free with any 600g order. Two writers mention the wall panel explaining what Duroc is

  **The price has gone up** — ₩33,000 in posts from October and November 2024 and January 2025, ₩36,000 in four posts from March to November 2025. One writer works it out at ₩5,500 per 100g, another at ₩6,000. The thickness of the cut comes up again and again, along with relief that the part-grilling means it still cooks fast. Two posts give the origin as Mexico. Two couples finished the whole 600g and went on to fried rice

• 셀프 볶음밥8 ate it
  self bokkeumbap₩3,000

  **They bring rice, egg and seaweed flakes; you fry it yourself** in the pan you have been grilling in, with the last of the pork chopped into it and kimchi alongside. One post gives ₩2,000 for added cheese

  ₩3,000. Eight tables finished this way. One warns that self-fried rice is only as good as the person holding the spatula; another that the rice and seasoning alone taste flat, so add kimchi and the spring-onion salad yourself. One found the cheese portion generous. Another deliberately saved the beansprouts for this moment

• 김치말이국수5 ate it
  kimchimari guksu₩5,000

  Noodles in a cold kimchi broth, ordered to finish

  ₩5,000. One regular reckons few grill houses do it well and that here it comes in a two-portion bowl for the price; big enough, they say, to finish a table of four. Another agonised between this and the fried rice, chose the rice, and regretted it in writing

• 계란찜5 ate it
  gyeranjjim₩3,000

  Steamed egg in an earthenware pot

  ₩3,000. One writer cannot leave a grill house without ordering it; another dithered and skipped it. Two say it comes with the minari kongbul; one was given it because the cheongukjang had run out

• 공기밥5 ate it
  gonggibap₩1,000

  ₩1,000

  Four writers ordered it because the stew demanded it. In two cases both people at the table took one each

• 냉동삼겹살 1인분 (170g)4 ate it
  naengdong samgyeopsal₩9,900

  The dish that gets this place filed under 'Sadang frozen pork belly' — thin frozen slices, 170g a portion

  **₩9,900, unmoved across two years** — six posts between May and December 2025 agree. One writer marvels that a portion of pork belly under ten thousand won still exists. Another preferred its crispness to the thick-cut Duroc, while the friend across the table preferred the Duroc. **Order it and they swap in a square griddle for it.** Origin is given as Mexican and German

• 김치찌개3 ate it
  kimchi jjigae₩3,000

  ₩3,000 on top to have it instead of the cheongukjang. Posts give the standalone price as either ₩5,000 or ₩6,000

  Opinion splits: one writer says the broth is so concentrated it carries a bowl of rice on its own, another simply insists on it — while a third found it sweet rather than sharp and expects people to disagree

• 한돈 한근 600g3 ate it
  handon hangeun₩45,000

  600g split down the middle: **300g of Korean pork belly and 300g of neck**, fresh rather than frozen. Minari comes with this one too

  ₩45,000 in posts from January, March, May and November 2025 — unlike the Duroc, it has not moved. One writer works it out at ₩7,500 per 100g. Another notes that only the fresh belly and neck are Korean, the rest imported, so **this is the order if you want Korean pork**

• 소주3 ate it
  soju₩4,000

  ₩4,000

  One writer notes that ₩5,000 is standard elsewhere and here it is ₩4,000; another says the ₩4,000 was to mark the opening of the second branch — **we cannot tell whether it is a promotion or the standing price.** The two posts are from January and March 2025

• 점심특선 제육정식·불백정식2 ate it
  jeomsim teukseon₩10,000

  Lunch, **11:30 to 15:00**: braised spicy pork or bulgogi over rice, ₩10,000 each, with the cheongukjang. One post also lists a ₩9,000 noodle-and-pork set and a ₩9,000 kimchi stew; another mentions a 200g pork belly set

  **Eleven posts recommend it; two actually ate lunch here.** One ordered two bulgogi sets and one spicy pork and reports that **you need not all order the same thing — the bulgogi is grilled at your table, the spicy pork comes out of the kitchen already cooked.** The other took the single-portion ssambap and made the most of unlimited lettuce. One post says the lunch menu runs at weekends and on holidays too

• 김치 짜글이2 ate it
  kimchi jjageuli₩10,000

  A shallow-simmered kimchi dish, offered alongside the minari kongbul as the option when you do not fancy grilling

  ₩10,000 in a March 2025 post. A January 2025 one paid ₩9,000 for it as a takeaway on the way home from work, fried an egg into it and got two meals out of it. Another writer has come in for nothing else

• 복소사 (복분자+소주+사이다)2 ate it
  boksosa₩12,000

  The house's own mix — bokbunja, soju and lemonade, **brought in a kettle with a separate glass of ice.** You can pick which soju goes in

  ₩12,000 in four posts. The two who drank it liked it for being neither too sweet nor too sharp — one who dislikes straight soju was won over. The rest saw it on a neighbouring table and resolved to try it next time

• 생삼겹살 1인분2 ate it
  saeng samgyeopsal₩16,000

  Korean fresh pork belly by the portion. One writer notes it arrives part-grilled and already peppered

  ₩16,000 in both a March and a May 2025 post. One table ordered it as a top-up after the Duroc and decided the fresh cut suited them better

• 통삼겹살 1인분 (듀록)2 ate it
  tongsamgyeopsal₩12,000

  The Duroc belly by the portion, for when 600g is too much

  ₩12,000 in a March and a May 2025 post. One pair judged 600g too much for two and ordered by the portion instead

• 팔도비빔면1 ate it
  paldo bibimmyeon₩5,000

  ₩5,000

  Only one writer ate it, and wraps the pork in the noodles to eat: their verdict is emphatic. The other four merely copy it off the board

• 미나리 콩불named in 8
  minari kongbul₩24,000

  Bulgogi with beansprouts and minari — offered as the order for when you do not want to grill. It comes with the steamed egg. One writer saw it billed as the only one in the neighbourhood

  ₩24,000 in four posts. **And not one of the twenty-six visits ate it** — people mean to, come back to it next time, or get distracted and order more frozen belly instead. A January 2025 post calls it new to the menu

• 냉삼 한근 600gnamed in 5
  naengsam hangeun₩30,000 · ₩33,000

  The frozen belly by the 600g

  **The posts disagree**: ₩30,000 in two (January and November 2025), ₩33,000 in one (March 2025). **Not one of the twenty-six visits ordered it by the 600g** — people take it by the portion or the half-pound, and three end their write-up promising to order the full one next time

• 얼큰라면named in 4
  eolkeun ramyeon₩5,000

  On the list of sides; one post prices it at ₩5,000

  **It appears only in the four posts that copy the menu board; nobody ordered it.** One of them calls it a spicy jjamppong ramyeon

• 생목살 1인분named in 2
  saeng moksal₩15,000

  Korean pork neck. Half of the 600g handon order is this cut

  ₩15,000 in one post (March 2025). **Nobody ordered it on its own** — it is only ever eaten as half of the 600g handon

Parking

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

Who came, and with whom

Getting there

Naver Map has a full English mode — Settings → Language → English. In Korea it gives better walking and transit directions than Google Maps.

Getting inside

Not one post mentions a step at the door or getting in with wheels. Across all twenty-six visits, the words threshold, stairs, ramp, lift, wheelchair and pushchair do not appear. The address gives the ground floor and it opens onto the lane, but nobody describes the doorway. Given that the toilet is out in the building, this is worth a phone call before you go. Two writers do note the bench seats with storage under them for coats and bags.

No one mentioned: Second floor · In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · 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.

How to read these posts

Posts that followed a TV spot

Of the 27 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.

When the posts appeared

What we do not know

• We know almost nothing about waiting. Across twenty-six visits, not one writer says they queued. Five booked and walked in; two describe a busy Friday evening and a surprisingly full Monday at eight and still did not wait. Two advise shifting your lunch hour or booking ahead because there may be a queue — and both phrase it as something heard rather than something endured. How long the wait runs, and when it is worst, nobody says.
• The toilet is not inside the restaurant. Two posts say so — one that you go out and find it elsewhere in the building, the other adding two warnings: take paper with you, and memorise the door code. Whether men's and women's are separate, and whether there is an accessible one, nobody says. The other twenty-four posts do not mention it at all.
• There is no evidence about floors either. The address says ground floor, but across twenty-six visits not one writer says so in the body of the post, and none mentions stairs up or down. Several count the tables — six round ones, seven, seven or eight — so it reads as a single room of roughly that size.
• Since the second branch opened, the two get confused. A second Geundwaejang opened around January 2025 in Gwanak-gu, near Seoul National University station, and three of the thirty posts collected turned out to be visits there, so we removed them — their table counts, their atmosphere and their owner are not this shop's. The confusion runs the other way too: some posts about this shop file it under the wrong neighbourhood. One calls it a Sharosu-gil grill house throughout while giving this branch's address, phone number and the walk from Namseong station; another places it near Nakseongdae while listing this branch's menu and prices. Both were kept. A further post was dropped from the denominator: it reproduces the opening hours, the amenity list, the full menu, the shop's own marketing copy and the platform's review tallies, and never once says what the writer ate.
