Taeyang Gopchang Seongsu-dong — Restaurant in Seoul

Rich and hearty gopchang stew in Seongsu

🍲 Flavorful Gopchang Jeongol The gopchang stew was rich, spicy, and comforting—perfect for a chilly evening. The broth had depth, and the offal was well-cleaned and tender. They also add a generous bunch of fresh crown daisy (ssukgat) on top which brought a fragrant herbal note.

🍚 Fried Rice Finale Don’t miss the fried rice at the end! After finishing the stew, they fry the leftover broth with rice, veggies, and seaweed right at your table. It’s crispy, savory, and rounds out the meal perfectly. The fried rice was super tasty with a wonderful smoky wok aroma—definitely a highlight.

🍻 Casual, no-fuss vibe The place is very local, no-frills, with wooden tables and a wall of fridges filled with soju and beer. It feels like a spot locals actually go to after work—which I love.
