Chasyuming

차슈밍 A long-running Chinese restaurant in a Gangnam basement, known for pork-loin tangsuyuk in a day-fermented batter and for its wall of private rooms

Data as of 2026-09-30 · Published 2026-09-30 · Compiled by Gilpost

Chasyuming is a Chinese restaurant in a basement off Gangnam-daero 94-gil, about five minutes on foot from exits 11 and 12 at Gangnam station. You go down a flight of stairs, and the first thing you meet is a wall of signed celebrity photographs. In the main room every table sits behind a tall partition; down a corridor at the back are eight or nine private rooms with round tables, and the walls come out to make a room that seats eighty or ninety. The list runs from jjajangmyeon at ₩8,000 to a dinner course in six figures, and the house dish is pork-loin tangsuyuk (₩23,000 small) in a batter the kitchen says it ferments for twenty-four hours. There are five jjamppong — plain, pork, seafood, brisket, oyster — and one writer reports they share a broth and differ only in what is in it. Six posts say the head chef spent years in the Chinese kitchen at the Shilla hotel. Weekdays it runs eleven to eleven without a break; weekends it closes at half ten and shuts between half three and five. Everything we read was written between 21 August and 30 September 2026 — six weeks.

The basics

23 posts say it is walkable from the station.

When it opens

Of 25 posts: 17 wrote Weekdays 11:00–23:00, 16 wrote Weekends 11:00–22:30, 5 wrote Daily 11:00–23:00.

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.

These hours are counted from the posts we read. Shops change them without notice — check Naver Place before you go. Place — check hours

What people order

The most ordered dish is deungsim tangsuyuk (발효 등심탕수육) — 29 of 30 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

What to order

• 발효 등심탕수육29 ate it
  deungsim tangsuyuk₩23,000 · ₩31,000 · ₩46,000

  **Twenty-nine of the thirty ordered this.** Pork loin in a batter the kitchen says it ferments for twenty-four hours — not the usual round nuggets but long batons, big enough that two writers asked for scissors. The sauce comes on the side, not poured over

  ₩23,000 small, ₩31,000 medium, ₩46,000 large — one post lists all three. **The batter divides them:** one calls it thin, another found it thick in an old-fashioned way and said so plainly, adding that the deep-fried chicken she ordered alongside had the same problem. Four say it stays crisp even with the sauce poured over, and three note the pork has no off taste. Two could not finish the small.

• 짜장면7 ate it
  jjajangmyeon₩8,000

  The cheapest line on the list, and several writers stop to note what ₩8,000 means in Gangnam

  **Two writers say the opposite thing about the seasoning:** one found the sauce salty enough to scrape some off, the other found the finish bland. Two added chilli powder. Four posts give ₩8,000

• 삼선짬뽕7 ate it
  samseon jjamppong₩12,000

  The most-ordered of the four jjamppong. Squid, whelk, baby octopus, mushroom

  Four write about the wok smoke. One who avoids heat says this one builds rather than attacks. Another notes the squid comes big enough that scissors arrive with it. Three posts give ₩12,000

• 삼선간짜장7 ate it
  samseon ganjjajang₩11,000

  The same ganjjajang with squid and prawn folded in

  Four write about the bite of the seafood and onion; one says the noodles did not dry out as the meal went on. Two posts give ₩11,000

• 매운 삼선간짜장6 ate it
  maeun samseon ganjjajang₩11,000

  The seafood ganjjajang with chilli in it. Six ordered it

  **They disagree on the heat:** two say even the chilli-shy would manage, one warns that people who avoid spice might find it warm. Three mention the fried egg. ₩11,000

• 마파두부밥6 ate it
  mapa-dubu bap₩10,000

  Mapo tofu over rice, listed by some writers as a donburi

  **Four say it is not hot** — mild, judged right, pitched at a Korean palate. One notes the tofu holds its shape. **A bowl of jjamppong broth comes with it.** One post gives ₩10,000

• 새우볶음밥5 ate it
  saeu bokkeumbap₩11,000

  Fried rice under whole prawns, with jjajang sauce and a bowl of jjamppong broth alongside

  One writer describes each grain coated by a hot wok without turning greasy; three note how many prawns there are and how firm. Three posts give ₩11,000

• 차돌짬뽕5 ate it
  chadol jjamppong

  Jjamppong with thin-sliced brisket. Two writers pick it as the best thing they ate

  One says the brisket makes it more substantial without any heaviness. Another, who had more than one, reports that the four jjamppong share a broth and differ only in what is in it — the brisket lends its own smell, the seafood one is about the picking. No price given

• 간짜장5 ate it
  ganjjajang₩9,000

  Noodles and sauce arrive separately, **with a fried egg on top** — two writers say they were glad, since a lot of places have stopped doing the egg

  One calls it the plain original — onion and nothing else; three praise onions cut big and fried sweet. Two note the sauce arrives in a bowl bigger than the rice bowl. Two posts give ₩9,000; a third says ₩11,000 but repeats that figure on another line, so it looks like a slip in copying

• 고기짬뽕3 ate it
  gogi jjamppong₩11,000

  Jjamppong built on pork rather than seafood

  One expected something heavy and found it clean; another caught a hint of mala. One post gives ₩11,000

• 게살볶음밥2 ate it
  gesal bokkeumbap₩13,000

  Fried rice with crab

  One writer says there is enough crab in it that it actually tastes of crab; she also notes the broth that comes alongside has mushroom and seafood in it, not just liquid. One post gives ₩13,000

• 쟁반짜장1 ate it
  jaengban jjajang

  Jjajang stir-fried on a platter with a lot of seafood

  Only one writer ate it: a touch of the flame in the sauce, a little heat that cut the richness, thin noodles that took the sauce well. She added a bowl of rice to finish the sauce. **Hers is the one post that carries a sponsorship tag.** No price given

• 짬뽕1 ate it
  jjamppong₩9,000

  The plain jjamppong

  Recorded once, by someone in a party of nine who each ordered their own: sharp and deep without overdoing it. One post gives ₩9,000

• 굴짬뽕1 ate it
  gul jjamppong

  The white one, built on oysters and clams

  One writer only: a different animal from the red one, clean and cold-tasting. She suggests a pair ordering one of each. No price given

• 사천탕면1 ate it
  sacheon tangmyeon

  A clear chilli noodle soup

  One writer only, who likens it to a white jjamppong: chilli in it, but clean rather than hot. No price given

• 깐풍기1 ate it
  kkanpunggi

  Fried chicken tossed in a sweet-hot glaze

  Ordered once, by a party of nine. She liked the glaze and found the batter thick — **the same complaint she makes about the tangsuyuk.** No price given

• 짬뽕밥1 ate it
  jjamppongbap₩9,000

  Jjamppong broth with rice instead of noodles — and glass noodles, and an egg on top

  **The hottest thing anybody reports here** — one writer, who says she cannot take heat, sweated through it and rates it above Shin ramyun. She also reports the glass noodles kept swelling. ₩9,000

• 옛날볶음밥1 ate it
  yetnal bokkeumbap₩9,000

  The plain one, with nothing on top

  One writer only: dry-fried and plain in a good way. The jjamppong broth comes with it. ₩9,000

• 고추잡채밥1 ate it
  gochu-japchae bap

  Shredded pork and peppers stir-fried, with rice

  One writer only, who expected heat from the name and got wok smoke and salt instead. The jjamppong broth comes with it. No price given

• 삼선우동1 ate it
  samseon udong₩12,000

  A clear-broth noodle with seafood and vegetables

  One writer only: enough seafood and vegetables to make the broth taste of both. ₩12,000

• 사천탕수육1 ate it
  sacheon tangsuyuk₩26,000

  One writer went for the Sichuan version instead of the fermented-batter one

  Crisp outside, thick pork inside, she says. ₩26,000

• 런치 코스named in 9
  leonchi koseu₩28,000 set · ₩40,000 set

  A lunch course, **three people minimum**

  One post gives a range of ₩28,000–₩40,000 and three give ₩28,000. **Nine posts recommend it and none of them ate it** — three say they will try it next time, with more people

• 점심 정식named in 7
  jeomsim jeongsik

  A set lunch, eleven to three, **for two or more only** — the posts describe it as the pricier dishes (jellyfish salad, glazed chicken, pepper stir-fry, seafood in gravy, chilli prawn) brought out with a rice or noodle course and tangsuyuk

  **Seven posts explain this set and nobody ordered it.** One says it runs in the ten-thousands per head, and one notes the day's version is chalked up outside. Not one writer says what was actually in it

• 디너 코스named in 5
  dineo koseu₩50,000 set · ₩100,000 set

  The dinner course. The posts describe a separate block on the menu — cold platters, shark fin, sea cucumber, abalone, scallop, prawn

  One post gives ₩50,000–₩100,000. **Nobody ate this one either.** All we know is what the menu board says

Sides, and what comes with it

• 기본찬 (볶음땅콩·짜사이·단무지)11 ate it
  gibonchan

  Fried peanuts, pickled mustard stem and yellow radish arrive when you sit down; two writers also got kkakdugi

  Three single out the peanuts as sweet and toasty enough to keep going back to. Two asked for a refill and got one — one of the pickle, one of the peanuts. Two mention aprons handed out unprompted, and one that they are cloth rather than paper

• 짬뽕 국물 (밥 메뉴에 딸려 나옴)6 ate it
  jjamppong gukmul

  The bowl of soup that comes free with any rice dish

  One writer notes it is not just liquid — there is mushroom and seafood in it. Two tasted it and decided to come back for the jjamppong itself

• 공깃밥 추가1 ate it
  gonggibap chuga

  An extra bowl of rice to finish the jjajang sauce with

  One writer stirred it into what was left of the platter jjajang. No price given

To drink

• 차 (자리에 내어 주는 것)3 ate it
  cha

  Hot tea comes to the table; one writer also notes jugs of hot and cold water set out at each seat

  Not a priced line. Three writers mention it, each in a single clause

• 소주1 ate it
  soju₩5,000

  One writer had some with her meal

  She had meant to stop at one bottle. ₩5,000

• 제로콜라1 ate it
  jero-kolla₩2,500

  The soft drink, for whoever is not drinking

  One post gives ₩2,500

• 고량주 (연태고량주·공부가주)named in 6
  goryangju

  Chinese white spirit. Through the whole six weeks we read, the posts report a two-for-one on Yantai and Kongfujia

  **Six posts mention the offer and not one writer drank any.** One was unwell; another had somewhere to be. One post says bringing your own bottle carries a corkage fee, without saying how much

Parking

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

Nobody parked. More than ten posts say there is no parking, but nearly all of that sits in the emoji information block at the top; four writers put it in their own words. All four point at the same public car park nearby, and three of them use the same sentence about level B2 being closest — three identical sentences come from one source. Only one adds anything: the restaurant does not validate. What it costs, whether there is space, how long the walk is: no post says.

Who came, and with whom

Getting there

Getting inside

It is one floor down, by stairs. Nine writers say so in their own words — go down, mind the steps, the entrance is at the bottom of a staircase, the room opens out once you are below ground. One adds that the restaurant takes the whole basement floor. Nobody says how many steps there are, whether there is a handrail, or whether a lift exists. At street level there is a black-and-gold frontage and a menu board.

This is a basement reached by stairs, and not one writer says whether you can get in with a wheelchair or a pushchair. Across thirty posts the words wheelchair, pushchair, ramp, lift and step never appear. Two writers brought children and both wrote about the food instead (four posts list "high chairs available", but all four copied that from the Naver listing and none of them used one). Set the entrance stairs aside and it is the same story inside: nobody looked at the door width, the aisles, or the route to the toilet. It is not that the answer is unclear here — no post asks the question at all.

One writer looked at the toilet and wrote about it. She reports it is inside the restaurant, separate for men and women, and clean. A second adds a single clause — the smoking room and the toilet are both well kept — without saying where either one is. Three further posts say "separate men's and women's", but all three carry it in the copied information block at the top, so we did not count it. How many cubicles, whereabouts in the room, whether there is an accessible one: nobody says. Two writers confirm there is a separate smoking room, and one of them adds that she had worried about the smell and none of it reached her table.

No one mentioned: Second floor · 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.

When the posts appeared

What we do not know

• Everything we have on this place was written inside six weeks, and those six weeks look like an advertising run. All thirty posts fall between 21 August and 30 September 2026, with nothing before. They share a shape: an information block, photographs of the private rooms, photographs of the menu, photographs of the food, a checklist verdict, a block of hashtags. Phrases travel between them word for word — years in the Chinese kitchen at the Shilla, twenty-four-hour fermentation, up to eighty people, level B2 of the Yeoksam Culture Park car park, the "rabbit-hole alley". One post still carries the keyword brief it was written to: four search phrases repeated three times at the bottom, then a fifth line ending "(pick one)". Another is published on a blog named after a review-placement platform. A third says she will come back for the jjamppong and pay for it herself — which says what this visit was. Yet only one post declares a sponsorship, and only one declares that she paid; the other twenty-eight say nothing at all. We still counted all thirty. They did not go up on one day, every one of them names what was ordered, and — the deciding thing — they contradict each other: the batter is thin and it is thick, the jjajang is salty and it is bland, the prices are kind and they are not, the sign is easy to spot and easy to walk past. Fabrications do not disagree like that. Read the numbers below with all of this in view.
• Twenty-three writers say how to get here without a car, and no two agree on how far it is. From the same exit 11 at Gangnam: two minutes, three to five, five, two hundred metres, seven or eight. Two make it five minutes from exit 12, and two give ten minutes from Yeoksam. They also disagree about finding it: one says the sign is big and you cannot miss it, another that the stairs down and the set-back entrance make it easy to walk straight past. The landmarks offered are the "rabbit-hole alley" (two writers) and the slope by the red board-game café (one). For a place that closes at eleven at night, not one writer says a word about the last train or a bus.
• Not one writer queued. The two posts that mention waiting are both about not waiting: one walked in at seven on a weekday evening with no wait, another arrived at five and had the room quiet enough to photograph at leisure. Several saw it busy — the hall full right up against the weekend break with a steady stream of takeaway customers, nearly full at weekday dinner peak, office workers filing in at lunch. None of them stood in line. The private rooms are a different matter: two left on a Sunday evening, all but two on a Monday, one left on another evening and gone shortly after. The rooms evidently need booking ahead, and no post says how you do it.
• Nobody counted the rooms' capacity — they were told. Seven posts say up to eighty, four say ninety, one says "they told us eighty, even a hundred". All three figures arrive as reported speech, and no writer saw a party of that size seated. Even the number of rooms comes down to two attempts — "about nine" and "eight at a glance" — against "I lost count" and "like a maze". The phone number splits too: twenty-two posts give one number, one post gives a different one, and the number on the business licence matches neither. We published the number twenty-two posts agree on, but somebody should ring it.
• One writer had been before. She says so outright — she had thought it a tangsuyuk place the first time and thought so again. Ten more say they will return. The other nineteen never mention their own footsteps, so we cannot say whether it was their first visit. Bear in mind too that a six-week corpus has no room for return visits to accumulate. Twelve posts say who they came with: eight on a date, two with family, one with a friend, one a party of nine. Nobody writes about coming alone — though two report seeing other people eating by themselves.
