Why here
Monggol Saeng Sogeumgui grills unfrozen pork salted rather than marinated — ₩16,000 for 200g — and keeps beef on the same board: sirloin, brisket and ox intestine at ₩22,000. A ₩3,000 bowl of chive bibimbap closes the meal. It opens at 17:00 and shuts on Mondays. Sung Si-kyung's Muktende covered it in 2026.
