After a day in the water, a family of three ordered two servings of marinated ribs and two of fresh ribs with rice and doenjang jjigae (soybean paste stew), grilled over charcoal, and it was more than enough food. The fresh ribs at Yeoyejeong are mild and tender while the marinated ribs won over the child, so ordering both is the answer. ## Good to know - **Location**: 49 Ssangsolbaegi-gil, Seo-myeon, Yangyang-gun, Gangwon (10 minutes by car from Naksan Beach) - **Ordered**: 2 servings marinated ribs, 2 servings fresh ribs, rice, doenjang jjigae - **Mushrooms**: 1 included, extra orders available - **Lunch**: Lunch menu including meat pot rice (sotbap) - **Parking**: Plenty of room in the lot - **Other**: Certified model restaurant, group seating available, lucky draw event for writing a review *as written by the visitor on Sep 4, 2026* On the night we stayed at St. the Sweet Yangyang, the hotel right in front of Naksan Beach, I was craving pork galbi haha After a full day of swimming, it's meat, no question!! Gotta refill the protein!! So we went to Yeoyejeong, a pork galbi place famous around Naksan Beach, about 10 minutes away by car. ![Exterior of Yeoyejeong in Yangyang](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-01-hoe97-900.webp) ![Sign for pork galbi restaurant Yeoyejeong in Yangyang](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-02-jh4j9-m-900.webp) ![View of Yeoyejeong tucked in the mountains](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-03-1msrk-m-900.webp) ## Where is Yeoyejeong and is there parking? Yeoyejeong is a pork galbi restaurant on Ssangsolbaegi-gil in Seo-myeon, Yangyang. We'd been to the more famous Itaewon Galbi in Yangyang before, but the waiting line's gotten even worse there^^;; So we gave up on that and looked for another pork galbi place nearby instead haha You wind up a little bit into the mountains to get here haha, and that actually made it better! ![Mountain road leading up to Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-04-11loa-m-900.webp) ![Spacious parking lot at Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-05-1qt9k-900.webp) ![Mountain scenery around Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-06-1jm9a-900.webp) Being up in the mountains, the air was clean, and the parking lot was nice and spacious! But looking around, most people seemed to be locals — lots of neighborhood folks were there. ![Model restaurant certification sign at Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-07-qj6lz-900.webp) There's a 'model restaurant' sign up haha, so I walked in with high expectations. ![Entrance and interior of Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-08-qx0y9-900.webp) ## What we ordered at Yeoyejeong: 2 servings marinated ribs + 2 fresh ribs At Yeoyejeong we ordered 2 servings of marinated ribs, 2 servings of fresh ribs, plus rice and doenjang jjigae. Looking at the menu, I got curious about the pot rice with meat lunch menu lol, but we came for dinner so... I'd never had pork galbi as fresh, unseasoned ribs before! This place seemed special, so I was curious enough to order it. They also sell pot rice. My son loves pot rice, but we were so hungry that day I worried it would take too long, so we just went with regular rice ㅠㅠ ![Menu board with pot rice lunch item at Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-09-oiwf4-900.webp) ![Menu board listing galbi dishes at Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-10-f6x28-900.webp) ![Table inside Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-11-afa6m-900.webp) ## Why Yeoyejeong works with kids: the lucky draw event Right in the middle of Yeoyejeong there's a lucky draw event. We ordered and were looking around the place lolllll and my son... the moment he spotted something colorful, he sensed it was for him and started nagging me haha.... We posted a review and did one draw, got a little squishy toy. A meat restaurant with these small little events is so great — my son didn't get bored while waiting for the meat to cook! Nice. The place looked big enough for group bookings too~~ That day there seemed to be a family gathering, with a big extended family eating there as well haha. ## Side dishes, lettuce and the chive sauce Lettuce and side dishes came out~~ cabbage salad, seasoned cucumbers, sautéed eggplant, baek-kimchi (white kimchi)! And they gave us a whole bundle of lettuce — did they grow it themselves? lolllllll Super fresh lettuce!!! So good. ![Side dishes and a fresh bundle of lettuce at Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-12-vmvrd-900.webp) ![Cabbage salad, seasoned cucumbers, sautéed eggplant, and baek-kimchi side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-13-mb75a-900.webp) And a sauce with chives in it! Eating the meat with this chive sauce was so good!! ![Chive-based sauce for the meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-14-1axsc-900.webp) ## Fresh ribs vs marinated ribs on the charcoal grill Charcoal's in place~! Galbi really does taste best grilled over charcoal! ![Charcoal brought to the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-15-1f95m-900.webp) My first time trying fresh, unmarinated pork galbi~~ first time seeing the visual of ribs with no seasoning too haha Can you see the color difference between fresh and marinated ribs? haha Fresh ribs look kind of like thinly sliced pork neck, but the taste is way milder and more tender! Apparently the protein inside gets tenderized by the salt, which makes it softer haha ![Color difference between fresh ribs and marinated ribs at Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-16-dkd7i-900.webp) ![Fresh pork ribs on the charcoal grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-17-rumps-900.webp) ![Marinated and fresh ribs grilling over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-18-re8wf-1200.webp) They grill mushrooms alongside too. Only one comes free, so I'd recommend finishing it and then ordering more haha. One seemed enough for us though. ![Mushrooms grilling alongside the ribs on charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-19-1x7mp-900.webp) ![Marinated ribs cooked first](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-20-vi0b3-900.webp) The marinated ribs definitely cooked faster? Maybe because of the seasoning coating them haha We had a beer alongside too. Fresh ribs taste mild, kind of like pork belly or pork neck — plain but in a good way! And being tender made them even easier to eat. But my son, being used to the marinated flavor, said the marinated ribs were tastier haha. It's a matter of taste I guess, but both were delicious. The doenjang jjigae had that real countryside soybean paste flavor too!!! So good haha ![Countryside-style doenjang jjigae and rice at Yeoyejeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-21-1dle0-900.webp) My son ate a ton of pork galbi with mushrooms on top of rice haha. After swimming and then eating pork galbi, he was fully protein-charged~ maybe a blood sugar spike hit him because he got sleepy lol lolllllll Wake up, son. ![A bite of pork galbi with rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-22-o132g-900.webp) ![Plate left with only bones after eating pork galbi](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-23-1m0w3-900.webp) ## Is 4 servings enough for a family of three? Seriously, only bones were left lolllllllll We ordered 3 servings for our family of 3 and it was plenty — filling and generous in portion. This place has great value for money~~!! The side dishes were clean and no-frills too, and delicious. Both the kid and the adults left full and happy. ![Table at Yeoyejeong after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs-24-1sz2k-m-900.webp) If you want great pork galbi near Naksan Beach in Yangyang, come on by~ ## Where it is - Yeoyejeong (여여정) - 49 Ssangsolbaegi-gil, Seo-myeon, Yangyang-gun, Gangwon, South Korea - 강원특별자치도 양양군 서면 쌍솔배기길 49 - 38.0625808, 128.5781306 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%97%AC%EC%97%AC%EC%A0%95/@38.0625808,128.5781306,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@donghae-salt-bowl/yangyang-yeoyeojeong-naksan-pork-ribs/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
