Gomjip Galbi (곰집갈비)

Overview

Featured on the Korean variety show "I Live Alone," this local favorite has been in the same spot for over 50 years since starting as a street stall in 1970. It’s famous for charcoal-grilled beef and pork galbi with rich marinade, juicy flavor, and tender texture. Since the show aired, it’s been packed with not only locals but visitors from all over the country—so expect a wait on weekends and evenings.
