## In short

Yukjjip Eungam is a Korean BBQ restaurant in Eunpyeong, Seoul, one minute on foot from Eungam Station Exit 4 and right in front of the Bulgwangcheon stream. Even at an off-peak hour the wait was 30 minutes for a 2nd-floor grill table, where staff grilled the Yukjjip Assorted platter, 600g for 54,000 won, of Jirisan aged pork, served with white kimchi, myeongi wild garlic leaves and shrimp, and finished with doenjang rice rolls. Since the staff do all the grilling, Yukjjip is an easy, apron-free choice for a family dinner or a work get-together.

Fall weather has been so good lately, haha, TT. Perfect for walking from Bulgwangcheon stream all the way to the Han River, and I've been really into working out and walking lately >< This day too, after exercising and walking, I suddenly wanted to sink my teeth into some meat for a bit of recovery... you know how it is,, lol

So I'd had my eye on this place for a while and finally visited: Yukjjip Eungam main branch. There's also a Gajaeul branch and a Nokbeon branch, but the main branch is right in front of Eungam Station by Bulgwangcheon stream, and that's where I went this time.

The hearty pork itself was great, but honestly what I loved most was that the staff grilled the meat for me directly, which made things so easy as the person eating... And the staff were so kind too, so I had a genuinely pleasant meal. Walking along Bulgwangcheon in the fall and then eating meat on top of that — total recovery combo!!

> 3 things that make Yukjjip great

Now let me get into the detailed review!

## One minute from Bulgwangcheon stream, and the wait outside

Literally a 1-minute walk from Bulgwangcheon stream near Eungam Station!! Great to pop in mid-walk. Or, great to walk it off afterward too. It just catches your eye and is easy to spot! Jirisan-aged pork belly, pork neck,,,,

![Exterior of Yukjjip main branch by Bulgwangcheon stream near Eungam Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-02-dx8pb-966.webp)

After 6pm you should basically expect a wait. I went at a slightly odd time and there was still more of a wait than I expected TT Doesn't matter if it's a weekday or weekend, once it passes 5–6pm there's basically always a wait, wow. I waited about 30 minutes myself before getting in. Popular places really are different, haha.

![Priority entry sign for pregnant guests at Yukjjip's entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-03-e3ph2-966.webp)

Near the entrance there was a sign for priority entry for pregnant guests, which felt like a nice warm touch haha. Kids' chairs were also ready, so it's a comfortable spot for family visits!!

While waiting, since mosquitoes are still out in force, they had a mosquito coil going, and the little pig-shaped coil holder in front was so cute lol. The mosquito coil smoke coming out of it,, so cute I took a pic.

## Folding doors and 6-seaters downstairs, grill tables upstairs

Yukjjip is split into 1st and 2nd floors. The 1st floor front is opened up like folding doors, so even though it's a BBQ place it didn't feel stuffy. There's less worry about smoke too, and on a nice day it feels open and airy.

![Yukjjip's 1st-floor dining room opened up with folding doors](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-05-g3b3z-m-966.webp)

### Roomy tables that mostly seat six

The tables are mostly set up for 6 people. Even when only 2 people visit, they sometimes still get seated at a 6-person table haha. Maybe that's why the whole place feels spacious. Great for families or larger groups!!

![Mostly 6-person tables set up at Yukjjip](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-06-14cyk-m-966.webp)

I sat upstairs on the 2nd floor! There's a grill at the far end where staff cook the meat.

## The Yukjjip menu and how to order

Each table has a kiosk so ordering is easy >< If there's a wait, table time is capped at 100 minutes.

![Table kiosk ordering screen](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-08-kxqk2-966.webp)

Jirisan-aged pork, Yukjjip!!!! Built around Jirisan-aged pork, you can enjoy various cuts like pork belly, pork neck, gabrisal, and skirt meat. In particular, the Yukjjip Assorted platter — which comes with the signature pork neck, whole pork belly, and gabrisal together — is the signature menu item!!!!!

Since I wanted to try several cuts at once, I ordered the Yukjjip Assorted platter.

![Sign for the ₩1,000 soju and ₩2,000 bottled beer promo](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-09-ilxfz-966.webp)

### Soju for 1,000 won and beer for 2,000 won

Attention, drinkers!!!!!!!! Yahi yahi ya~~ Extended through October, the discount event has soju at ₩1,000 and bottled beer at ₩2,000!!!!!! At these prices it feels seriously good value lol — even before the discount, soju was ₩3,000. For real??;;

Amazing, double amazing all around!! I couldn't drink that day so I sadly skipped the alcohol, but the next table was ordering multiple bottles of soju and beer. If you're the type to enjoy a drink with your meat, this promo is one to actually take advantage of!!!

> What we ordered

## Eating at Yukjjip: the grill, the side dishes, the platter

![Clean grill pan before the meat is placed on it](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-10-a87fm-m-966.webp)

### A clean grill from the start

Ta-da~ Before the meat came out, I checked the grill pan first, and it looked quite clean and tidy. Considering the meat's going to be cooked right on that surface, this kind of detail actually matters, haha.

### Generous side dishes before the meat

They laid out the side dishes one by one — bean sprout namul, white kimchi, wild garlic leaves, scallion kimchi, and more, all sorts of variety.

![Yukjjip side dishes including bean sprout namul and white kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-11-euacz-966.webp)

And the one that stuck with me the most was the side dish with shrimp in it ㅇㅅㅇ It went surprisingly well with the meat.

![Side dish with shrimp served alongside the meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-12-16788-966.webp)

![Refillable wild garlic leaves and scallion kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-13-t8t36-966.webp)

The side dishes were refillable too, which I really appreciated >_<

### The Jirisan aged pork finally arrives

Ta-da~ It came with pork belly, pork neck, and gabrisal, plus eggplant and mushrooms, which I love, grilled alongside. Being Jirisan-aged pork, the meat itself looked pretty hearty, wow.

![Yukjjip Assorted platter 600g with pork belly, pork neck, and gabrisal](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-14-1ehb5-966.webp)

## Staff grill every cut for you

At Yukjjip, staff grill the meat right in front of you at the grill. They looked so busy that I almost felt bad for them TTTT but even while busy, they never forgot to keep flipping each piece and cooked it to just the right doneness.

![Staff grilling meat at the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-15-1kif2-966.webp)

So sweet of them, haha.

### Juicy, tender and better than it looks

Once they flipped it, wow, the juiciness on that meat was insane lol.

![Juicy aged pork belly after being flipped](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-16-1nzx6-966.webp)

They cut it into easy-to-eat, crisp bite-sized pieces and grilled it once more until golden.

![Meat being cut into bite-sized pieces and grilled](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-17-13fhx-1200.webp)

![Pork neck and pork belly grilled to a golden color](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-18-qhirj-966.webp)

The pork neck was tender, the pork belly was thick and hearty. A visual that makes you hungry just looking at it.

![Close-up of thick pork belly and tender pork neck](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-19-ffpgp-966.webp)

Once the meat was fully cooked, they plated it up ready to eat like this — okay,,, into my mouth it goes. Look at that color, right? They grilled it so well TT Because they grilled it for us, we didn't even need an apron!!!!!!

## What order to eat the Yukjjip platter, and the white kimchi wrap

First, I tried it plain, without dipping anything — 1. just the natural flavor of the meat. Being aged pork, it felt soft and chewy!! It was full of juice and delicious even eaten plain.

![A piece of aged pork eaten plain, without any dip](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-20-1tbgf-966.webp)

![Yukjjip meat dipped in salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-21-7l5zh-966.webp)

2. Next, a little bit of salt!!! Eating it plain and simple brought out the meat's own flavor even more.

3. Then I tried it together with that shrimp side dish I'd had my eye on.

4. And I wrapped it in white kimchi (baek-kimchi). I can't forget this white kimchi lol. Eating it with the meat, it's crisp and refreshing, and it completely tames the heavier flavor of the aged pork TTTT

![Jirisan-aged pork wrapped in white kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-22-14xhy-966.webp)

It was also great wrapped in wild garlic leaves, delicious with scallion kimchi, and amazing dipped deep in salted shrimp — one piece of meat, endless combinations to enjoy ㅇㅅㅇ

That day genuinely felt like a recovery meal. Working out, walking along Bulgwangcheon, and then eating meat on top of it — a complete recharge combo!!!!!

![Eggplant and mushrooms grilled alongside the meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-23-13f4p-966.webp)

### Doenjang rice rolls to finish

Finally, the doenjang rice rolls I ordered!! There was a slightly savory scent almost like cheonggukjang, and eating it after the meat felt satisfyingly filling — this is it,, exactly,,, this is the one!!!!!!

![Doenjang rice rolls ordered to finish the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi/eungam-yukjjeup-aged-pork-white-kimchi-24-19tuq-966.webp)

Perfect to order together if you'd feel like something's missing after just the meat@@
