## In short

Sanggu's Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal Guui Branch is a cauldron-lid pork belly restaurant on Achasan-ro in Gwangjin, Seoul, between Guui Station and Gangbyeon Station, open until 2 a.m. On a 1 a.m. Monday visit the chewy pork jowl (jjondeuksal) was sold out, so the writer ordered the premium half-plate set, 500g for 43,000 won with minari (water dropwort), and found the pork neck even tastier than the pork belly. Sanggu's Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal is worth a visit when you crave staff-grilled minari pork belly late at night.

*as written by the visitor on Oct 14, 2026*

I went for the chewy pork jowl and it was sold out, which was a bummer, but after eating, the pork neck is what stuck in my memory!

I went at 1 a.m. on a Monday and there were still quite a few customers. Guui Station's good restaurants really are different, huh...? So today I'll tell you about the minari half-plate set I ate at Sanggu's Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal (상구네솥뚜껑삼겹살).

## Location and hours of Sanggu's Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal Guui Branch

![Exterior of Sanggu's Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal near Guui Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set-02-196j8-966.webp)

Sanggu's Sotttukkeong Samgyeopsal Guui Branch is at 444 Achasan-ro, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, on the 1st floor, and it's open daily from 11:00 to 02:00 the next day (last order 01:00). It's about an 8-minute walk from Exit 3 of Guui Station.

It sits between Gangbyeon Station and Guui Station, so it's a handy reference if you're looking for a good restaurant near Gangbyeon Station too.

### Where do you park?

There's a free mechanical parking lot behind the building. Large vehicles like SUVs may not fit, so check Guui 3-dong Public Parking Lot across the street!

## Inside Sanggu's at 1 a.m. and the self-bar

![Dining area and self-bar at Sanggu's](https://img.superchart.com/images/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set-04-1oe5g-966.webp)

I figured it would be quiet this late, but there were customers even at 1 a.m. Each table has a big cauldron-lid grill, and you grab side dishes from the self-bar, as much as you need.

![Self-bar stocked with wrap greens and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set-05-1h6qy-966.webp)

There were several kinds of wrap greens, and the self-bar was neatly kept, which put me in a good mood, haha. Worth knowing if you want a late-night Korean BBQ place near Gangbyeon Station.

## Menu and prices at Sanggu's

- Premium half-plate set, 500g: ₩43,000
- Premium full-plate set, 900g: ₩77,000
- Korean pork belly (fresh): ₩7,900
- Korean pork neck (fresh): ₩7,900
- Handmade flash-frozen pork belly: ₩7,900

They also have hangjeongsal (pork jowl), gabeurisal (pork chuck flap) and the neck cut called jjeondeuksal (chewy pork jowl). At lunch they serve meals like jeyuk (spicy stir-fried pork) set meals and minari shabu-shabu kalguksu (noodle soup). Korean pork for ₩7,900 a serving is cheap, right?!

### The chewy jowl can sell out if you go late

I'd heard the jjeondeuksal at Sanggu's is especially good while hearing about Guui Station restaurants, so I was looking forward to it, but it was sold out that day. T_T I guess I went too late... what a shame.

By the way, if you join their Naver save and review event, they give you draft beer or a drink.

And the soju here is ₩2,900..! Crazy, right?!

## Premium half-plate set, 500g, ₩43,000: minari and fresh pork belly

We ordered the 500g half-plate set (₩43,000), which lets you eat both pork belly and pork neck.

![500g half-plate set with pork belly and pork neck](https://img.superchart.com/images/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set-08-1mt09-966.webp)

![Premium half-plate set with minari](https://img.superchart.com/images/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set-09-1v0no-966.webp)

You can choose one of aged green onion kimchi, minari (water dropwort) or seasoned dried radish greens, and I picked minari. The pork belly can also be frozen or fresh, and I ordered fresh.

The basic side dishes were pickled onions, chili peppers, ssamjang (dipping paste), salt, wrap greens and pickled radish wraps. There were also vegetables to grill! My favorites, eggplant and kabocha squash..

### What goes on the lid first?

First we put bean sprouts, kimchi and bracken (gosari) on the lid!

![Bean sprouts, kimchi and bracken on the cauldron lid](https://img.superchart.com/images/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set/guui-late-night-moksal-minari-set-12-cgole-966.webp)

Then the pork belly and pork neck went on top, and it already looked pretty generous.

Best of all, the staff grill the meat for you, which was easy. If you want a place near Gangbyeon Station where they grill for you, you'll probably like this too, haha.

## Minari pork belly combo, and the pork neck that was even better

Once the meat is cooked, they put minari on top, and this combo was really good. With the fragrant minari alongside rich pork belly, it felt much less heavy than eating the meat alone? Eating it with the grilled kimchi and bracken too, it was fun to taste a bit of everything in one bite.

But that day the pork neck was better than the pork belly. The pork belly had a nice savory flavor, while the pork neck wasn't overly greasy and had a great chew, so I kept reaching for it.

The pork neck made up for my disappointment about the sold-out jowl, haha.

## Cheddar steamed egg and ₩3,000 fried rice

The cheddar cheese steamed egg (gyeran-jjim) we had with it was good too.

It wasn't too salty, so it was nice to have between bites of meat. I like this kind of dish to be not too intense, and it was just right for my taste.

And a cauldron-lid pork belly meal doesn't feel finished until you've had the fried rice, right?

To finish, ₩3,000 fried rice! Even after meat and minari, I couldn't give up on the fried rice, haha. Whenever I go to a BBQ place I end up wanting fried rice at the end.

## Verdict: how is it as a late-night Korean BBQ near Guui Station?

Missing the jjeondeuksal was a shame, but the pork neck was good and I left satisfied. If you're looking for a late-night spot near Guui Station, the long opening hours are a plus too. If minari pork belly sounds good among the restaurants near Gangbyeon Station, it's worth a visit. I'm going back to try the jjeondeuksal, haha.
