Why here
A monkfish house on the working side of Seongsu-dong, serving agu-jjim — monkfish braised with bean sprouts under a thick chilli sauce — and the clearer agu-tang from the same fish. The rest of the menu reads like a neighbourhood sikdang rather than a seafood restaurant: dongtae-tang at ₩11,000, stir-fried pork at ₩9,000. Sung Si-kyung featured it on Meogeultende in April 2025.
