I had a two-person soy-marinated female crab set meal with beef yukjeon and pot rice, and the lightly seasoned crab and crispy fried flounder stood out. A lovely stop for a Korean meal with parents after a drive. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 10:00–21:00 - **Parking**: Dedicated parking available - **Ordered**: Soy-marinated female crab set meal for 2, beef yukjeon *as written by the visitor on Sep 11, 2026* I've been going on drives around Yongin lately and searching out tasty places, and this time I found a great restaurant in Cheoin-gu, Yongin with a rather unique atmosphere! It's Sotbap Hansang (솥밥한상)! ![Featured photo introducing a visit to Sotbap Hansang in Cheoin-gu, Yongin](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-01-92voz-1200.webp) ## A unique exterior and reservoir view on a Yongin drive Sotbap Hansang, a popular spot in Cheoin-gu, Yongin, has such a distinctive atmosphere! You can spot it at a glance even from far away, right? :) ![Sotbap Hansang's uniquely atmospheric exterior in Yongin](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-02-l5xo1-900.webp) Sotbap Hansang has a very large dedicated parking lot, which was so convenient! ![Sotbap Hansang's dedicated parking lot](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-03-vacax-900.webp) ![The large dedicated parking lot at Sotbap Hansang](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-04-18q7n-900.webp) More than anything, I was surprised when I parked and saw the reservoir! Rather than feeling like I'd simply come to a restaurant for a meal, it felt like I'd gone for a drive out into the countryside, which was lovely haha. ![Reservoir view from Sotbap Hansang's parking lot](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-05-1g5rl-900.webp) Even from the moment I entered from the parking lot, the building felt a little different from a typical Korean restaurant. It looked like a unique building from a fairy tale, and that somehow put me in an even better mood. ![Fairy-tale-like exterior of Sotbap Hansang](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-06-1p8zp-900.webp) ![The distinctive exterior of Sotbap Hansang, a Korean restaurant in Yongin](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-07-1jsbn-900.webp) The garden is beautifully kept too, so it's somewhere you'll want to linger even after your meal. Personally, I'd recommend it as a Yongin driving destination for anyone who enjoys this kind of atmosphere! ![Sotbap Hansang's garden, a lovely place to rest after a meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-08-1uy1x-856.webp) ## Soy-marinated female crab set meal by the floor-to-ceiling windows The signed autographs from celebrities caught my eye as soon as I came in! The seating was so neat, and the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows made the view outside especially soothing. ![Interior seating with floor-to-ceiling windows and an outdoor view](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-09-z4m3e-890.webp) Here are Sotbap Hansang's menu items! That day, we ordered the soy-marinated female crab set meal for two and beef yukjeon (pan-fried battered beef slices). The female crab set meal and beef yukjeon arrived! I tend to love sotbap (rice cooked in an individual pot) with Korean food, so I liked that this place served it just as its name suggests. And what I loved most here were the side dishes! Every single banchan (Korean side dish) on the full table spread was really delicious, so I kept reaching for a bit of this and that! ![A full spread of soy-marinated female crab set meal and beef yukjeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-10-17a2l-900.webp) ![Sotbap Hansang's meal spread with a variety of side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-11-1uqpy-900.webp) There is also a self-service bar, so you can bring back as much extra of any side dish as you like. If you love banchan, you'll be very happy here. ![Self-service bar for extra side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-12-1z0fu-887.webp) ### Soy-marinated female crab that wasn't too salty The soy-marinated female crab looks insane, right? ㅠㅠㅠ The meat is so full, and those orange roe look incredibly delicious! ![Soy-marinated female crab full of meat and roe](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-13-1f35p-900.webp) The beef yukjeon was thinly sliced too, and it looked delicious. ![Thinly sliced beef yukjeon](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-14-1gh1w-900.webp) Time to open the pot rice. Seeing that little pot full of steaming hot rice when I lifted the lid reminded me that pot rice makes me happy from the very first glance haha. > What is there even to say… 🧡 Can you see all that roe and meat? Insane ㅠㅠㅠ ![Steaming pot rice with soy-marinated crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-15-8lize-900.webp) It really wasn't salty, and the seasoning was just right, which I loved. If you like soy-marinated crab, this is the kind of flavor that makes it hard to stop after just one bowl of rice?! ![Perfectly seasoned soy-marinated female crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-16-48vhh-900.webp) The pairing of beef yukjeon and soy-marinated blue crab was even better than I expected?! ![Beef yukjeon paired with soy-marinated blue crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-17-1kqyf-900.webp) ![A full meal of beef yukjeon and soy-marinated crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-18-1usxg-900.webp) ## The unexpectedly most memorable dish: fried flounder The fried flounder was unexpectedly what I remembered most. Usually, when fried fish comes with Korean food, I just eat it as a perfectly fine side dish, but this fried flounder was among the crispier, tastier ones I've had! ![Crispy fried flounder side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-19-qn1q4-900.webp) It was crispy outside and tender inside, so I kept reaching for it more than I expected! It was delicious enough that I even considered ordering more later ㅠㅠ ![Fried flounder, crisp outside and tender inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-20-1533a-900.webp) ![Fried flounder tasty enough to consider ordering more](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-21-1va9e-900.webp) ![Korean side dishes enjoyed with soy-marinated crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-22-tpj6t-900.webp) ![Soy-marinated crab served with roasted seaweed and white rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-23-sgbj2-900.webp) Wrapping the wonderfully full soy-marinated crab in gim (roasted seaweed), scraping every bit from the crab shell, and eating it greedily with white rice. After finishing with sungnyung (toasted-rice tea) and the pumpkin porridge from the self-service bar, I was completely stuffed! ![Sotbap Hansang's unmanned café, ideal after a meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang/yongin-ganjanggejang-gajami-sotbaphansang-24-193ys-900.webp) ## An unmanned café after the meal, too Sotbap Hansang also has an unmanned café, and I loved that you can enjoy various café drinks at reasonable prices! - The unique, fun exterior and garden make it feel like a little outing - A wide range of side dishes that were all delicious - Extra side dishes are available from the self-service bar - The fried flounder among the standard side dishes was so delicious - The soy-marinated female crab was delicious and not too salty - There is even a café that is perfect for after the meal If you're looking for a great Korean set meal in Yongin, Sotbap Hansang is somewhere you can enjoy pot rice, a main dish, and many side dishes all at once. It would be nice for a meal with your parents or a family dinner, and it's also a good place to stop when you're craving Korean food after a drive around Yongin!
