The food, from composition to taste to service, was all completely satisfying, so let me introduce it. ![Exterior of the Marine Rich building on Gwangalli's beach road](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course-03-1osw7-966.webp) ## How to get to Geumrang Hoetjip in Gwangalli, and where to park Geumrang Hoetjip is on the 6th floor of the Marine Rich building, and there's 2-hour parking registration available at the public lot right in front. Gwangalli is such a popular area that parking worries usually come first when you're driving there. ![Public parking lot in front of Geumrang Hoetjip in Gwangalli](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course-04-wbayz-966.webp) But this Gwangalli sashimi restaurant we found, Geumrang Hoetjip, has a spacious public parking lot right out front, and they support 2-hour parking registration, which made it really convenient to visit by car. ![Elevator and floor signage inside the Marine Rich building](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course-05-1fus4-966.webp) Once inside the building, the clean elevator and floor signage were well organized, so we found our way without any trouble. ![Entrance and interior corridor of Geumrang Hoetjip's 6th floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course-06-110sg-966.webp) ## Gwangan Bridge ocean view and three straight years on the Blue Ribbon list The 6th floor dining hall at Geumrang Hoetjip opens right onto the Gwangan Bridge sea view through the windows. The moment we stepped inside, the sweeping ocean scenery outside the windows caught our eyes. ![View of Gwangan Bridge and the sea through the window](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course-07-1sl5n-966.webp) It's not just the best ocean-view space to dine in while admiring a gorgeous view — it's also been selected for the Blue Ribbon Survey's Taste of Busan in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and apparently well-known celebrities have visited too. ![Sign noting Geumrang Hoetjip's Blue Ribbon selection](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course-08-1g1ff-966.webp) ![Upscale, clean dining hall seating at Geumrang Hoetjip](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course-09-1ll18-966.webp) This particular visit was to celebrate my parents' birthday, and the upscale, clean atmosphere really made me feel like I was doing right by them — so I'd definitely recommend this Gwangalli sashimi restaurant for bringing your parents. ![View of the Gwangalli sea from a window seat](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course-10-19orf-966.webp) ![Table setting of Geumrang Hoetjip's Suyeon Hansang course](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course/gwangalli-geumrang-parents-birthday-course-11-qljiv-966.webp) ## What the Subyeon Hansang seaside set for 3 includes, and what it costs What we ordered was Geumrang Hoetjip's Suyeon Hansang course for 3 (₩60,000 per person). From premium assorted sashimi to steamed abalone, merou steak, konowata (salted sea cucumber innards), nakji tangtangi, marinated shrimp, mixed seafood, seaweed soup, butter-grilled scallops, fried dishes, corn cheese, egg roe rice, and finally spicy fish stew — it's a well-packed, high-value premium course. -
