Gwangju restaurant for Jeju bomal kalguksu: Gujeon Gukbap Yongbong

Gujeon Gukbap Yongbong Main Branch is a 24-hour gukbap (rice-and-soup) restaurant in Yongbong-dong, Buk-gu, Gwangju. The order here was halmaep assorted sundae gukbap and Jeju-style bomal kalguksu (top shell noodle soup), with halmaep napa cabbage kimchi and green onion kimchi from the Gujeonchan-gan self-serve side dish bar, plus a vegetable bibimbap given through the review event and eaten with sesame oil and bibim sauce. Jeju-style bomal kalguksu is hard to find in Gwangju, so ordering one alongside a bowl of gukbap is the way to go at Gujeon Gukbap.
