While looking for good food near Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, I visited Sugyeokok, a Korean restaurant near Migeum Station known for hearty, healthy meals. It turns out this Gumi-dong spot is especially famous for neungi mushroom samgyetang (chicken soup with ginseng and mushroom) — the kind of thing elderly people often eat after a hospital visit to nourish themselves. So after taking my mom and dad for their check-up at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, I decided to treat them to a proper nourishing meal here too. Let's go dig into some delicious neungi samgyetang, Bundang Migeum style~

## Where is Sugyeokok Bundang Migeum, and what is it like inside?

Sugyeokok Bundang Migeum is about a 5-minute walk from Migeum Station, in a residential area where good restaurants cluster together. I booked ahead for lunch and visited — and instead of a noisy restaurant strip, it's a calm, quiet residential dining street full of just good places. That made it feel really nice for bringing elderly parents along. It felt like exactly the kind of atmosphere my mom and dad would enjoy, which honestly made me happy.

## Ordering the 3-person neungi mushroom samgyetang set

Sugyeokok's menu is mainly chicken dishes, but since it had been a while, we went for the neungi samgyetang — pricier, but a proper way to nourish the body! Going with the 3-person neungi samgyetang set was even better, since it comes with everything from noodles to pre-meal porridge.

There are companies nearby too, so it seems like a lot of people come here for lunch gatherings and eat samgyetang. These days everyone's thinking more about health, so a hearty samgyetang really hits the spot.

## Side dishes and the table call button at Sugyeokok

I booked ahead through Naver, and at Sugyeokok, once you order, it takes about 5 minutes for the main dish and side dishes to be set up. There are about 4 basic side dishes, and the mul-kimchi (water kimchi) was genuinely delicious — it pairs so well with neungi samgyetang.

It's not self-serve, but each table has a kiosk-like order panel, so you can just press the staff call button and easily ask for more of whatever side dish you want. The service is really great!

## The pre-meal porridge that sets Sugyeokok apart

We ordered the 3-person neungi samgyetang set, and what's unusual about this Migeum Station Korean restaurant is the pre-meal porridge! Of course there's also egg porridge at the end after you finish eating, but getting to cleanse your palate first with a pre-meal porridge is charming in its own way. Big chunks of meat you can really chew on made it enjoyable as an appetizer too. There was also herring roe jeotgal (salted herring roe) to eat alongside the porridge, and it was delicious.

I'm not usually a porridge person — I'm a rice-only kind of person — but this pre-meal porridge was so good it surprised me haha. Usually with dak-kalguksu or dak-hanmari, the really delicious part is mixing up fried rice at the end after everything's eaten. But this was the first time I ever thought a pre-meal porridge could be this nutty and rich too~~ Sugyeokok really knows what it's doing.

## How long to steep the neungi mushrooms in the samgyetang

True to its name, the 3-person neungi samgyetang comes topped with big chunks of neungi mushroom. Here's a tip! The neungi mushroom doesn't release its flavor into the broth right away, so it's best to let it boil hard first, and once a lot of the neungi flavor has come out into the broth, that's when to eat it. The broth tasted best right at the end. Drinking that deep, rich broth — that's the real deal right there.

The 3-person neungi samgyetang portion was pretty big! I don't usually say a restaurant's portions are generous — my family are all big eaters! — but this was genuinely so much we couldn't finish it all! There were 3 chicken legs too, which confirmed it really was meant for 3 people, not just a whole single chicken~

They say it's best to add the kalguksu (knife-cut noodles) when there are about 2-3 pieces of chicken left, but I got impatient wanting the noodles and threw them in early lol. My dad, quite the noodle lover, said it was incredibly delicious anyway lol.

The chicken was substantial and the meat was so plump — really delicious. Among the chicken legs I've had recently, it had been a while since one was this tender and tasty, which made it even more memorable.

## Finishing the set with noodles in the dark, deeply steeped broth

And finally, the star: the kalguksu. According to my dad, it was truly delicious. Maybe that's why he cleaned up every last bit of the noodles~ What makes neungi samgyetang broth so great is that by the time you finish eating, the neungi mushroom has turned the broth black — and that's the real thing right there. I think I drank about a liter of broth alone lol. It was genuinely delicious. Even though we'd already had pre-meal porridge, I wanted to make more porridge at the end.

Slurping down the kalguksu too, we ended up wonderfully stuffed > < It was tiring for my family to travel all the way out to Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, but ending the day with a hearty, nourishing meal like this made it all feel worthwhile.
