Mild jjukkumi with yuja radish rice bowl in Yongin: Yubok Kalguksu

Yubok Kalguksu Yongin Korean Folk Village Branch is a pufferfish seafood kalguksu (knife-cut noodle soup) and jjukkumi (stir-fried baby octopus) restaurant on Minsokchon-ro in Giheung-gu, Yongin, Gyeonggi. The writer ordered the pufferfish seafood kalguksu set for two at 30,000 won, simmering live clams, oysters, sea squirts and omandungi in pufferfish broth, then mixed the jjukkumi stir-fry with yuja (citron) radish salad into barley rice. Even her spice-shy partner handled the heat easily, so Yubok Kalguksu is a safe pick for a couple's or family meal.
