Kkalkkali Jokbal Bucheon Branch is a fried jokbal (pork trotter) and bossam pub on Bucheon-ro 29beon-gil near Bucheon Station in Gyeonggi.

I'm a pretty well-known jokbal (pork trotter) fanatic — someone who eats all kinds of jokbal and marvels at it — and today I want to introduce the jokbal place I rate as the absolute best near Bucheon Station.

I don't come to Bucheon Station often, but this is already my third time here! I posted about it once before, but it was so good I'm doing it again haha. This is Kkalkkali Jokbal Bucheon Branch, already famous as a jokbal, bossam, and fried jokbal spot near Bucheon Station. Let's get straight to it, go go go go go.

## Kkalkkali Jokbal Bucheon Branch: storefront and jokbal boiled fresh daily

Such a clean-looking exterior. It already gives off a delicious vibe haha.

Fun fact: they boil the jokbal fresh every day! Timing your visit around the boiling time would be even better — though it's already amazing regardless.

## Inside Kkalkkali Jokbal: outdoor tables and room for groups?

This is the inside hall of Kkalkkali Jokbal Bucheon Branch! Clean and comfortable, with an open window wall that gives it a real sense of openness. And as you can see... there were so many customers I couldn't get a proper shot. That's proof it's a good restaurant haha.

The tables can be moved around, so I highly recommend this as a spot for work dinners, gatherings, or group outings near Bucheon Station!! Of course, it's also great for a family meal or a date.

![Outdoor tables in front of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half-09-1jzn7-966.webp)

There are also tables outside. With the weather this nice lately, it's perfect for outdoor dining near Bucheon Station, right?

## What we ordered: small half fried, half original jokbal plus a roe rice ball

Here's the menu!!! We got the small Kkalkkali half fried, half original jokbal, plus an added rice ball haha.

![Side dishes set up on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half-13-1jd9h-966.webp)

The side dishes come out first. The bean sprout soup is the real deal haha — goes perfectly with a bottle of soju.

The flying fish roe rice balls were already set up in neat little rounds.

## Fried jokbal vs original jokbal: how the two halves taste

And here it is,,,, the jokbal makes its entrance. Fried on the left, original on the right. The visuals are insane, right????

I snapped a full shot too haha. Is this really the small size? The portion is generous. I got so distracted wanting to eat fast while taking photos, my mind went blank.

Left: fried / Right: original

![Fried jokbal on the left, original jokbal on the right](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half-19-3lsbj-966.webp)

The original is really chewy, soft, and moist, while the fried one is slightly crisp with skin that's, hmm, tender and chewy? (Definitely not tough at all.) Both are delicious,,,

![A piece of jokbal picked up together with a side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half-20-tm5q0-966.webp)

![Fried jokbal placed on top of bossam radish](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half-21-7qvxt-966.webp)

![Original jokbal eaten together with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half-22-8nkyt-966.webp)

Eaten with the side dishes, you can keep going forever without getting sick of it. (Honestly, even just the jokbal alone doesn't get old haha.) Personally I prefer eating it with the bossam radish haha.

![Free jaengban guksu noodles provided through the review event](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half-23-khfin-966.webp)

## Free jaengban guksu from the review event

Unbelievable,, do the review event and you get free jaengban guksu (platter noodles)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Writing a review takes one minute, so there's no reason not to.

Slurp slurp munch munch, slurrrrrrp, slurp, sniff.

![The bone section of jokbal, also known as mini-foot or shank](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half/bucheon-station-fried-jokbal-half-half-24-1wu8t-966.webp)

And then my absolute favorite part: the bone!!! Also called the mini-foot or the shank piece, the bone section is the best part haha.
