Uijeongbu galbi restaurant weekend lunch booking for 6: Manpo Galbi

Manpo Galbi Uijeongbu Main Branch is a marinated pork galbi (grilled short ribs) restaurant a 3-minute walk from Uijeongbu Station on the light rail. On a weekend lunch visit booked through Naver, the writer and their parents ordered 4 servings of handmade marinated galbi and added 2 more, and the free handmade Hamhung naengmyeon (cold noodles) that comes with any meat order arrived as 2 mul-naengmyeon and 2 bibim-naengmyeon. The marinade at Manpo Galbi is mild and full of fruit, so it suits even people who dislike overly sweet pork galbi — an easy pick for a family meal out.

Nowon hair salon root perm volume for thin hair: Yeum Hair

Yeum Hair Nowon District Office branch is a hair salon in Sanggye-dong, Nowon-gu, Seoul, a 4-minute walk from Nowon Station Exit 7, on the 2nd floor of a building with a Starbucks on the ground floor. Magic setting, a root perm and a clinic treatment turned chest-length semi-curly hair into a medium-length layered C-curl perm, and the flat sides of the head gained volume after just 5 seconds of blow-drying. For someone whose thin hair has long limited her styling options, Yeum Hair is a salon worth settling into.
