Irojeong Gumi Geumosan Direct Branch — I visited this hanjeongsik (Korean set-meal) restaurant near Geumosan in Gyeongbuk. With a neat yet generous spread, it's a proper full table of food, and it's the kind of loach soup restaurant in Sangmo-dong, Gumi that even my parents were genuinely happy with.

It's a great spot near Geumosan for a hearty meal, and I'd strongly recommend it as a Gumi loach soup restaurant with deep, rich broth that people of all ages can enjoy.

## A tidy Korean spread at the entrance to Geumosan

It's the perfect place to restore your energy after a walk or hike up Geumosan, and it's a loach soup restaurant even locals vouch for. My family often comes here bringing my parents along, or for a family meal after visiting the Saemaul Undong Theme Park with the kids.

The interior is clean and comfortable, with private rooms and group tables creating a relaxed atmosphere.

In particular, having separate private rooms for a more intimate meal was a big plus.

It seems perfect for family gatherings, group dinners, birthday parties, or a proper sit-down meal. I've already saved this place for my parents' 70th birthday celebration in December. 😃

Whether it's a family gathering, a meal to treat your parents, a date, or a group dinner, I think you'd walk away satisfied no matter the occasion.

### Why Irojeong's playroom makes it easy with young kids

Parents with young kids deserve a relaxed meal too, right? I was really impressed that Irojeong has a clean, well-equipped playroom.

Kids can play happily in the playroom while adults savor the nourishing food at ease — it seems to be a big hit with families. We visited on a weekend at 11am and the place was full within 30 minutes. 🤩

### The dessert cafe inside Irojeong

There's a separate cafe area set up so you can enjoy dessert at leisure after your meal. Thanks to these thoughtful little details for guests, I know I'll be coming back to this Gumi hanjeongsik restaurant. 100% revisiting‼️

We wrapped up a happy family meal in Gumi enjoying brewed coffee, sujeonggwa, sweet pumpkin sikhye, and sipjeondaebo tea while chatting after the meal.

Everyone was happy from the nourishing food to the dessert, so this seems set to become a new regular spot for my parents.

## What comes in the 20,000-won nourishing set

The main dish we ordered for our family meal today was the boyang jeongchan (nourishing set): duroc suyuk with mackerel sanghwang loach soup set, 20,000 won per person.

The neatly laid-out table is a feast for the eyes before you even eat, showing the care put into this Geumosan-area meal restaurant.

### Duroc suyuk (boiled pork slices)

The first item in the nourishing set is suyuk made with duroc, one of the world's three great pork breeds.

The warm duroc suyuk has no gamey smell at all and is tender and soft, and pairing it with the accompanying fried items gave a nice contrast between the meat's softness and a crispy crunch.

### Grilled Norwegian mackerel

A can't-fail tender grilled mackerel. The kids' favorite grilled mackerel uses high-quality Norwegian mackerel, rated the world's best, grilled to a golden, crispy finish.

![Close-up of golden grilled mackerel](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-geumosan-hanjeongsik-playroom-irojeong/gumi-geumosan-hanjeongsik-playroom-irojeong-11-7ird1-966.webp)

It's the textbook definition of crispy outside, tender inside, seasoned just right — the kids really enjoyed it.

*Sangmo-dong grilled fish restaurant*

Pull off a big chunk of the mackerel with its perfectly savory oiliness and lay it over warm rice — it's a Gumi hanjeongsik restaurant that everyone, young and old, can't help but love.

The self-serve bar you can freely use alongside the side dishes is well stocked with thin noodles and Shine Muscat grapes for dessert.

## Deep, rich sanghwang mushroom loach soup

The number-one nourishing dish, the sanghwang loach soup set — a richly simmered sanghwang loach soup that gets raves every time I visit.

![Richly simmered sanghwang loach soup at Irojeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-geumosan-hanjeongsik-playroom-irojeong/gumi-geumosan-hanjeongsik-playroom-irojeong-15-1axop-966.webp)

Come try this top-tier nourishing sanghwang loach soup set near Geumosan, Gumi, with the deep power of healthy sanghwang mushroom and a broth simmered with care✨

This Namwon-style sanghwang loach soup gives you a feeling of warmth spreading through your body from the very first spoonful.

If you're looking for a loach soup in Gumi to restore your energy, try Irojeong's sanghwang loach soup — no gamey smell at all, savory and deep.

*Gyeongbuk hanjeongsik*

The finely ground loach meat and well-boiled dried radish greens give the soup a rich, thick broth that was easy for my parents to eat too,

and I really felt the aroma of sanghwang mushroom and its nourishing power at this Gumi hanjeongsik restaurant.

## Seafood pancake with a whole octopus

The ultimate taurine boost! A seafood pancake with a whole octopus packed in — meet the octopus seafood pancake we ordered as a side alongside the nourishing set.

![Irojeong's seafood pancake topped with a whole octopus](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-geumosan-hanjeongsik-playroom-irojeong/gumi-geumosan-hanjeongsik-playroom-irojeong-19-13bun-966.webp)
*Geumosan restaurant*

This ultimate-taurine octopus seafood pancake, packed with a whole octopus, lets you taste the chewy texture of octopus, which is great for recovering from fatigue and good for your health.

The pancake is crispy, and inside it's spicy-sweet and savory, full of seafood and the aroma of fresh green onion‼️

Loaded with plenty of fresh octopus, shrimp, and other seafood, it was fun to chew through, and it was fried lightly without being greasy, so I could enjoy it all the way through without getting tired of it. ✅ Takeout available ✅

Cut into bite-sized pieces and dipped in chogochujang (vinegar-chili sauce) or soy sauce, it's a heavenly mix of crispy and chewy!

It holds its own as a standalone dish too, and it's the kind of menu that makes you crave a glass of makgeolli.
