# Seogwipo bento restaurant: Jungmun bento and fish cutlet set, Jejju - By Onyu (https://superchart.com/en/@chopstick-sleeve-3/) - Written Sep 21, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Seogwipo, Jeju - Sponsored: This visit was sponsored by the business. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@chopstick-sleeve-3/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-12d7/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@chopstick-sleeve-3/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-12d7/index.md) ## In short Jejju Donghong Branch is a bento (dosirak, boxed meal) restaurant on Donghongjungang-ro in Donghong-dong, Seogwipo, Jeju, that handles both takeout and group orders. On the way home from a day out, the Jungmun bento and the shrimp tempura and fish cutlet set were packed to go and eaten as dinner at home: the spicy stir-fried webfoot octopus and sweet beef bulgogi are made for mixing into rice, and a short spin in the air fryer brought the fried pieces back to freshly fried crispness. It is an easy pick for a night in at your accommodation or a picnic. ## Good to know - **Address**: Jejju, 58-8 Donghongjungang-ro, Seogwipo-si, Jeju - **Hours**: 10:30 AM – 11:00 PM - **Ordered**: Jungmun bento, shrimp tempura and fish cutlet set - **What's in the Jungmun bento**: Spicy stir-fried webfoot octopus, beef bulgogi, fish cutlet, shrimp tempura, yeolmu kimchi (young radish kimchi), sauce for the fish cutlet, udon broth - **Parking**: Public lot in front of the restaurant — 30 minutes free / free on weekends and holidays / free after 6 PM - **Also good to know**: Beyond bento, single dishes such as rice bowls, udon and fried items; group orders available *as written by the visitor on Sep 21, 2026* ![Main shot of the Jungmun bento spread from Jejju Donghong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-01-t954d-1200.webp) The weather's been so nice lately that my family's been out on outings all the time. Coming home from a day out and still having to put dinner together is exhausting and annoying for anyone, right? So we've gotten in the habit of picking something up on the way home, and this time the takeout from Jejju Donghong Branch — a well-known Donghong-dong spot for Seogwipo bento boxes and group orders — was so good I wanted to write about the dinner we had. ![Exterior of Jejju Donghong Branch in Donghong-dong, Seogwipo](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-02-gwu3t-966.webp) ## Where is Jejju Donghong Branch, and where do you park? Jejju Donghong Branch sits at 58-8 Donghongjungang-ro in Donghong-dong, Seogwipo. It's about 10 minutes by car from Jeju Olle Market, and it's near famous southern sightseeing spots like Soesokkak, the Seogwipo Citrus Museum, Wonang Falls, Donnaeko Recreation Forest, and Wind 1947 Kart — perfect if you're staying around here or in downtown Seogwipo!! ![Street view around Jejju Donghong Branch in Donghong-dong, Seogwipo](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-03-b2b99-966.webp) There's a public parking lot right in front of the restaurant, so parking is super easy. It's free on weekends and holidays, and free after 6 PM too!! The first 30 minutes are also free, so it's really convenient to order ahead, park here, and go grab it. ![The public parking lot in front of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-04-1j65y-966.webp) ![Public parking lot fee information sign](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-05-16l2h-966.webp) ## A bento shop in Seogwipo where you can also eat in I figured a bento specialty shop would have a small dining area, but Jejju Donghong Branch's hall is spotless and actually a really comfortable place to eat in. ![Clean dining hall inside Jejju Donghong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-06-5nub9-966.webp) ![Tables and seating at Jejju Donghong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-07-8sh56-966.webp) Beyond the bento boxes, there are plenty of single dishes too — rice bowls, udon, fried items. Prices are reasonable, so I hear students and solo diners come here a lot. There are especially a lot of salmon dishes, so I'd guess plenty of women stop by for those too. I wanted salmon myself... but since we were eating it later at home in the heat, I ordered something without salmon. ![Menu board listing bento boxes, rice bowls, udon, and fried items](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-08-4y2ui-966.webp) ![Jejju Donghong Branch menu board including salmon dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-09-1p30h-966.webp) ## Taking out the Jungmun bento and the shrimp tempura and fish cutlet set The takeout boxes at Jejju Donghong Branch come in a nice sturdy box, so they're great to carry to the beach, a recreation forest, or wherever you're staying. ![Takeout bento packed in a sturdy box](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-10-1tdso-966.webp) We ordered the Jungmun bento along with a shrimp tempura and fish cutlet set. Great as dinner, and it pairs really well with drinks too~ So even though it wasn't on the table originally, we had a glass of soju with it. Eating at home meant no worrying about a designated driver, which was so nice. Everyone should try packing this up and eating it comfortably wherever you're staying. ![Jungmun bento and tempura set laid out on a home table](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-11-y4ipb-966.webp) ## What comes in the Jungmun bento? The Jungmun bento at Jejju Donghong Branch comes with spicy stir-fried webfoot octopus, beef bulgogi, fish cutlet, shrimp tempura, yeolmu kimchi (young radish kimchi) with fish cutlet sauce, and cool udon broth — a lineup adults and kids alike can enjoy together. ![Full spread of side dishes in the Jungmun bento](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-12-pv8fo-966.webp) ### Yeolmu kimchi (young radish kimchi) The yeolmu kimchi looked so refreshing that I put it on top of the rice and tried it first. If the kimchi's good, everything else usually is too. The best!! ![Yeolmu kimchi placed on top of rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-13-13fd1-966.webp) ![Close-up of yeolmu kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-14-1w3uy-810.webp) ### Spicy stir-fried webfoot octopus This spicy octopus stir-fry practically calls for a drink. The sharp, savory sauce makes you want to mix it right into the rice. ![Close-up of spicy stir-fried webfoot octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-15-13dlu-966.webp) ### Sweet beef bulgogi My daughter ate almost all of the bulgogi because of the sweet sauce. She was already eating it straight, and once I mixed it into rice, she cleaned the whole bowl! ![Sweetly seasoned beef bulgogi](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-16-13y17-966.webp) ![Beef bulgogi piled on top of rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-17-tuuwm-966.webp) Piling the bulgogi on rice like this and adding yeolmu kimchi on top is the best combo. You could honestly just eat this as a standalone bulgogi rice bowl. ![Rice mixed like a bulgogi rice bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-18-abosw-966.webp) ![Shrimp tempura and fish cutlet in the bento box](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-19-h8bcz-966.webp) ## Reheating the cooled tempura in an air fryer The shrimp tempura and fish cutlet had cooled down a bit, so I gave them a quick spin in the air fryer — wow!! They came out completely crisp again, like freshly fried. ![Tempura re-crisped in the air fryer](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-20-mrqd5-966.webp) ![Fish cutlet warmed back to crispy](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-21-d4ono-966.webp) The fish cutlet is packed with moist pollock inside. It's really good with the special onion sauce that comes with it. ![Cross-section of the fish cutlet showing pollock filling and special sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-22-1hllu-966.webp) The shrimp tempura pieces are big — just a few of them are plenty filling. This would also make a great side for drinks. ![A large piece of shrimp tempura](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-23-zxo8e-m-966.webp) ![Tangerine-based dipping sauce made for the shrimp tempura](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox/jeju-seogwipo-jejju-donghong-lunchbox-24-1j075-966.webp) The shrimp tempura comes with a special tangerine-based sauce, and dipping it in makes it even better. Our kid loved it too. ## Is the Jungmun bento at Jejju worth ordering?
