Jinju restaurant for boneless agujjim (spicy angler fish): Jjimgoeul
Jjimgoeul Main Branch is a 30-year-old agujjim (spicy braised angler fish) restaurant in an alley in downtown Jinju, across from the Jinju Youth Training Center. A regular since 2015 ordered the boneless agujjim at spice level 1 and liked the plump fish that needs no bone-picking and the crunchy bean sprouts. Jjimgoeul is worth remembering for a spicy Korean meal near Jinjuseong Fortress and the car-free street.
