As expected, it was so good~! haha The Jinsim King Donkatsu, their signature dish, had that solid, back-to-basics flavor and I loved it. ![Close-up of the signature Jinsim King Donkatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongdong-station-pork-cutlet-jinsim/pyeongdong-station-pork-cutlet-jinsim-19-1bwj1-900.webp) ![Selfie taken at the restaurant after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongdong-station-pork-cutlet-jinsim/pyeongdong-station-pork-cutlet-jinsim-20-1r8z1-m-900.webp) I ate well and took a selfie afterward~^^ ## Who should visit BMI 29 me, along with my friend from the walking club I like, enjoyed the Jinsim King Donkatsu and jjol fish cutlet at Jinsim King Donkatsu Pyeongdong Branch, a great choice for donkatsu near Pyeongdong Station, lunch near Pyeongdong Station, a date near Pyeongdong Station, or food near Gwangju Songjeong Station~!
