Family-friendly jokbal restaurant in Sunae-dong, Seongnam: Wangchang

Wangchang Jokbal is a jokbal (braised pig's trotter) restaurant on Sunae-ro 46beon-gil in Sunae-dong, Seongnam, near Sunae Station and Bundang Central Park. Three generations — grandparents, parents and a child — arrived at 4pm and shared a large jokbal, the complimentary steamed egg that comes with every order, and makguksu (cold buckwheat noodles); the skin was springy and the lean meat tender enough that even parents sensitive to gamey smells ate comfortably. Wangchang Jokbal is an easy choice for a family meal with both young kids and older relatives.
