# Minari gomtang near Hanyang University Hospital in Seoul: Geumnyeong - By Yundam (https://superchart.com/en/@awning-menu-seoul/) - Written Sep 17, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Seongdong, Seoul - Sponsored: This post was written as a sponsored visit to Geumnyeong Gomtang's Wangsimni flagship. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@awning-menu-seoul/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@awning-menu-seoul/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/index.md) ## In short Geumnyeong Gomtang's Wangsimni flagship is a Korean beef gomtang (ox bone soup) restaurant on the Doseon-dong shopping street in Seongdong, Seoul. After fasting for tests at Hanyang University Hospital, the minari gomtang at 14,000 won arrived piled with finely chopped minari (water dropwort), which kept the rich beef broth clean rather than greasy. The rice comes already in the bowl, so Geumnyeong Gomtang is a fast, filling one-bowl meal for a solo diner. ## Good to know - **Gomtang**: 13,000 won / large 15,000 won - **Minari gomtang**: 14,000 won / large 16,000 won - **Rice noodle soup**: 13,000 won / large 15,000 won - **Minari rice noodle soup**: 14,000 won / large 16,000 won - **Seasoned pollack salad**: 14,000 won - **Boiled beef platter**: 2 people 39,000 won / 3 people 57,000 won / 4 people 73,000 won - **Side dishes**: Cabbage and radish kimchi, dried radish strips - **Address**: 11 Wangsimni-ro 20-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul (Doseon-dong shopping street) *as written by the visitor on Sep 17, 2026* ![A bowl of minari gomtang at Geumnyeong Gomtang's Wangsimni flagship](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-01-1o0vc-900.webp) Weirdly, whenever the weather turns even a little chilly, or I just crave a hot bowl of soup, gomtang (Korean beef bone soup) is what I want. I visited Geumnyeong Gomtang today after an appointment at Hanyang University Hospital. I'd been fasting for tests and had zero energy left. I came out feeling truly restored, like I'd had a gomtang made with medicinal herbs!! A regular gomtang is already great, but one piled high with minari (water dropwort)? That combination was so good. ![Exterior of Geumnyeong Gomtang's Wangsimni flagship on the Doseon-dong shopping street](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-02-cat6u-900.webp) ## Where is Geumnyeong Gomtang's Wangsimni flagship, and what is it like inside?

And the food came out fast after ordering, which I appreciated. ## What does the minari gomtang taste like? ![Minari gomtang piled high with minari](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-08-4a1yi-900.webp) When the minari gomtang I ordered arrived, the first thing I noticed was how loaded it was with minari. ![Close-up of finely chopped minari on top of the gomtang](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-09-15fuh-900.webp) Finely chopped minari sat on top in bright green, giving it a different look from a regular gomtang right from the start. ![Table setting with minari gomtang and basic side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-10-bno2o-900.webp) The basic side dishes were napa-radish kimchi and dried radish strips — the kimchi was refreshing and clean-tasting..!! The dried radish strips were crunchy and sweet too. ![A water bottle made from a nostalgic old juice bottle](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-11-1c2q4-900.webp) The water bottle turned out to be one of those nostalgic old juice bottles~~ I was so happy to see it!! The meat was thinly sliced beef shank sitting together with the rice. ![Inside the bowl showing thinly sliced beef shank and rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-12-160rm-900.webp) Scooping up a spoonful of rice from the hot broth with the meat, then adding a bit of the minari on top, brought everything together in one bite — delicious. ![A spoonful of broth with rice, meat, and minari together](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-13-1gkpi-900.webp) Because the minari was so finely chopped, it was easy to mix a little into the broth at a time. Its distinctive fragrant flavor combined with the gomtang broth made it taste clean, not greasy at all. When I eat gomtang, just meat and rice over and over can get a little dull, but with all that minari mixed in, I got fragrant little bursts throughout — I loved that. ![Minari gomtang next to the dried radish strip side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-14-11qsn-1200.webp) The dried radish strips were delicious!! You could really taste the skill behind such a simple side dish. ![A plate of crunchy dried radish strips](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-15-1c4to-900.webp) Best of all, since the rice was already mixed into the bowl, scooping a spoonful of broth along with the meat and rice cake made for a hearty, filling meal. ![A spoonful from the gomtang bowl with rice already mixed in](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-16-1r3uf-900.webp) The rice cake had a nice chewy bite, and the thinly sliced beef shank went well with the rice too. ![Rice cake and beef shank visible in the gomtang](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-17-1ne3y-900.webp) I kept enjoying the minari and eating my way through it, and once the broth became visible, its color was... a work of art. That rich broth really felt like it was warming both body and soul. ![The rich broth revealed after eating through the minari](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-18-pffb5-900.webp) ## Is Geumnyeong Gomtang a good meal near Hanyang University Hospital? I'd call it a certified Hanyang University Hospital spot too!! Since the hospital shuttle drops off at Wangsimni Station, it's perfect for stopping by for a quick recovery meal. If you like minari, I'd say this minari gomtang is worth trying at least once over the regular version. ![Finishing up the meal at Geumnyeong Gomtang's Wangsimni flagship](https://img.superchart.com/images/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang-19-1dttm-900.webp) If you're in Wangsimni craving a hot bowl of soup and want a hearty, filling meal with rice included, go, go~~ to Geumnyeong Gomtang's Wangsimni branch. ## Where it is - Geumnyeong Gomtang (금녕곰탕) - 11 Wangsimni-ro 20-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 성동구 왕십리로20길 11 금녕곰탕 - 37.562919, 127.0351332 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%B8%88%EB%85%95%EA%B3%B0%ED%83%95/@37.562919,127.0351332,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@awning-menu-seoul/wangsimni-hanyang-hospital-minari-gomtang/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
