The blogger ordered Horangigul's signature hanwoo daechang gopchang hot pot and finished the leftover broth with cheese risotto (+4,000 won), and found the deep, spicy broth, tender daechang and nutty risotto a well-built combination. With its izakaya-style atmosphere, Horangigul is worth recommending for a hearty date or family meal at Dongtan Station. ## Good to know - **Location**: Inside Lotte Department Store Dongtan, Dongtan Station - **Signature dish**: Hanwoo daechang gopchang hot pot (motsunabe style) - **Risotto add-on**: +4,000 won - **Hours (Mon–Thu)**: 10:30–20:00, last order 19:00 - **Hours (Fri–Sun)**: 10:30–20:30, last order 19:30 - **Parking**: Lotte Department Store Dongtan underground car park - **Price reference**: ₩4,000 ≈ $3 (2026-10-19) *as written by the visitor on Jun 23, 2026* I went to Horangigul (호랑이굴) in Lotte Department Store Dongtan at Dongtan Station and had beef gopchang (small intestine) hot pot and risotto! ![Main photo of beef gopchang hot pot at Horangigul, Lotte Department Store Dongtan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-01-oosky-1200.webp) ![Gopchang hot pot and risotto at Horangigul Dongtan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-02-f70md-900.webp) Horangigul is inside Lotte Department Store at Dongtan Station, so it's easy to get to, and it's a great spot for a meal after shopping, a date or a family dinner.

Horangigul serves a Korean reinterpretation of motsunabe, the Japanese offal hot pot, in a spicy gopchang and daechang style that the owners learned directly in Japan~ The main branch was listed in the Blue Ribbon Survey in both 2023 and 2024, and it's so popular that the average wait is long. It's a real Dongtan Station hot spot, hehe ![Interior of Horangigul Dongtan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-04-d0a74-m-900.webp) ![Seating area inside Horangigul Dongtan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-05-2nb0i-900.webp) Even the atmosphere was special! ![Izakaya-style interior of Horangigul Dongtan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-06-1dxdk-900.webp) It feels less like a typical gopchang restaurant and more like a Japanese izakaya (pub), and the space is clean and stylish, so I thought it would work well for a date~ ## Horangigul menu and table setting I think the charm of Horangigul's menu isn't just the gopchang hot pot, but the way Korean and Japanese cooking come together~ Motsunabe is a hot pot dish that people love in Japan, and with a Korean spicy kick added, it feels both familiar and new! ![Menu at Horangigul Dongtan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-07-1bwc5-900.webp) The basic table setting is neat too! Maybe because it's inside a department store, the place is clean and the staff are friendly, and lots of families come. ![Basic table setting at Horangigul Dongtan](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-08-1v9s7-m-900.webp) ## How does Horangigul's hanwoo daechang gopchang hot pot taste? This time I ordered Horangigul's signature hanwoo daechang gopchang hot pot! It looked generous right away, with big pieces of daechang and gopchang in the spicy broth, hearty just to look at, hehe ![Table spread with Horangigul hanwoo daechang gopchang hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-09-odnct-900.webp) ![Hanwoo daechang hot pot with daechang and gopchang](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-10-v8lwk-900.webp) One spoonful and I could see why so many people come! The broth was spicy yet deeply savory, not just painfully hot, with a charm that keeps you eating~ The nutty richness of the daechang blended well into the broth, giving it a deep flavor! ![Hanwoo daechang hot pot in spicy broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-11-ymdam-900.webp) ![Daechang and gopchang scooped out of the hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-12-17vzd-900.webp) The gopchang and daechang weren't tough but tender, great with the broth, and with so many ingredients inside it's satisfying as a full meal :) The savory sauce that comes with it is a real kicker too! ## Is the cheese risotto (+₩4,000) worth adding to the hot pot broth? The finishing risotto for Horangigul's gopchang hot pot costs an extra ₩4,000. I tried the risotto this time too, and finishing the hot pot broth with risotto gives a charm quite different from the start. ![Cheese risotto made with the hot pot broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-13-132g3-900.webp) The spicy, rich broth mixes with the cheese and rice for a savory, filling finish! At first the combination of gopchang hot pot plus risotto may feel unfamiliar, but once you try it you can see why it's recommended, hehe ![Cheese risotto finish for Horangigul's gopchang hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-14-tudyf-900.webp) ![A spoonful of risotto with cheese and rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto/dongtan-daechang-hotpot-cheese-risotto-15-1d3xw-900.webp) If spice is a bit much for you, I especially recommend the risotto as a finish. ## Horangigul Dongtan: overall verdict What satisfied me most personally was that this isn't an ordinary gopchang hot pot but a special style of dish you can only get here! The spicy broth, the savory hanwoo daechang and the final risotto made for a solid overall set, and I was happy with it. If you're looking near Dongtan Station for something special and filling, an izakaya-style place with a good mood, or a spot for a family meal or date, I'd recommend Horangigul!
