Today I visited Omokgyo Gopchang, the original garlic gopchang and green onion kimchi specialist that anyone would guess is based near Omokgyo Station! It's been famous for a while so I was curious haha. There are tons of companies around Omokgyo Station, so I'd highly recommend it as a company dinner spot too!

## What's the vibe like inside?

The interior is clean and has a nice mood. It's not an old-school style place — more of an MZ-style gopchang restaurant! Maybe that's why there seem to be more young people here.

## The menu board and the daily 20-serving garlic gopchang

First we sat down and checked the menu board!! As soon as we sat, we checked whether the traditional garlic gopchang — limited to only 20 servings a day — was still available.

![Chopstick holder at Omokgyo Gopchang with printed message](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-07-199fo-900.webp)

Even the wording on the clean chopstick holder built up my excitement — it hinted at the garlic gopchang and green onion kimchi to come.

Top-grade domestic gopchang, slaughtered the same day! You know Seosan is famous for garlic, right? That garlic goes into the gopchang, clove by clove! Eating it with their house-made green onion kimchi is absolute heaven~! You must order the [traditional handmade garlic gopchang].

### Sauce guide by cut

Here's the overall Omokgyo Gopchang guide. There are matching sauces for heart, gopchang, daechang, and makchang, so it's fun to try them in different combinations.

![Sauce guide for heart and gopchang](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-10-p2cef-900.webp)

![Sauce dish for daechang](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-11-1oeah-900.webp)

![Sauce served with makchang](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-12-bv5s8-900.webp)

![A small dish of the spicy special sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-13-14k2x-m-900.webp)

![Disposable apron from Omokgyo Gopchang](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-14-17m8j-900.webp)

What I liked was the disposable apron!! This makes a surprisingly big difference... with reusable ones, you tend not to bother putting them on ㅠㅠ But given how oil and sauce can splatter at a gopchang restaurant, an apron is a must.

## Our order for two

- Traditional handmade garlic gopchang x1 (₩28,900)
- Mixed gopchang x1 (₩27,900) — garlic gopchang + hwangso gopchang + makchang + daechang + heart + honeycomb tripe
- Omokgyo fried rice (₩6,900)
- Omokgyo dongchimi noodles (₩7,000)

![Complimentary spicy sundubu-jjigae and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-15-lzomc-900.webp)

First, a spicy sundubu-jjigae (soft tofu stew) arrives as a free side. They simmer it before the gopchang comes out, then move it to the middle once the gopchang arrives. There were also so many other side dishes!!

## Grilling gopchang, starting with a fire show

Next, the main event!! As soon as it arrived, the staff member told us there'd be a fire show haha. Cameras ready right away!!

![A fire show performed over the grilling gopchang](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-17-aslx4-900.webp)

It comes pre-seared, then they grill it top and bottom like direct-flame grilling, so it cooks faster than expected.

Green onion kimchi is tasty even raw, but I love it grilled, so all of it went straight onto the pan!!

![Green onion kimchi placed on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-19-1x010-900.webp)

First up to finish cooking was the heart, so we ate that first.

![The heart, first to finish cooking](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-20-1fl2w-900.webp)

The great thing about the mixed gopchang is you get to try a variety of cuts. We ate it with bean sprouts and chives! You might think garlic gopchang is just gopchang grilled with garlic, but there really is a difference. I'd recommend trying both.

Potatoes and daechang joined in too! I prefer eating it with onion or potato rather than on its own. The [spicy special sauce], aged for 72 hours from 15 ingredients made in-house, was the real kicker!

Sizzling away on the grill!

![Grilled mushrooms stamped with the Omokgyo Gopchang name](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-22-bscnx-900.webp)

Even the mushrooms had 'Omokgyo Gopchang' written on them! After finishing the whole platter of gopchang in various combinations, of course we couldn't skip the sides.

## Cutting through the grease with dongchimi noodles

I felt like having a cool broth, so I ordered the dongchimi (radish water kimchi) noodles. Clean and refreshing, exactly what I wanted...! The broth wasn't like a typical store-bought naengmyeon.

The noodles had a nice bounce that cut through the gopchang's richness so well.

I asked for extra small plates and they gave them to me. Perfect for sharing~!

## Finishing with fried rice, scraped down to the scorched bits

To finish, fried rice is a must!! It's stir-fried with high-quality 100% domestic chili powder, antibiotic-free eggs, five fresh ingredients, and Korean beef fat. They told us to wait about 4 minutes before eating it!

![Omokgyo fried rice with egg on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong/omokgyo-gopchang-sauce-guide-mokdong-23-1s5dh-900.webp)

Once the egg is cooked through, they mix it and spread it out.

I love scorched rice (nurungji), so I let it cook a bit longer and scraped it up. Almost like a dolsot bibimbap (hot stone pot rice) style!

The portion is generous too, so even when full, I kept eating haha. Finishing with fried rice is what truly completes a beef gopchang grilling session!

## Final verdict

If you're looking for a place near Omokgyo Station or Mokdong for a company dinner, try Omokgyo Gopchang! It has 64 seats for groups plus free corkage. Definitely try the handmade garlic gopchang.
