# ₩70,000 hot pot shared by four at Haepumgye, a Pocheon restaurant - By Eunchae (https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-cupboard-corner/) - Written Sep 17, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Pocheon, Gyeonggi - Sponsored: This post was written after visiting as part of a sponsorship from the business. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-cupboard-corner/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@gyeonggi-cupboard-corner/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/index.md) ## In short Haepumgye is a haesintang (chicken-and-seafood hot pot) restaurant in Songwoo-ri, Sohol-eup, Pocheon, Gyeonggi. Four adult women booked ahead and visited on a weekday evening, sharing one 70,000 won pot packed with giant octopus, small octopus, shrimp, slow-simmered chicken, fish cakes and vegetables for shabu-shabu — so filling that they could not even order the calguksu (knife-cut noodles) or porridge finish. The ingredients were fresh and the chicken had no gamey smell, making Haepumgye well worth a return trip. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1st floor, Building A, 164 Solmoru-ro, Sohol-eup, Pocheon-si, Gyeonggi-do - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–21:30 - **Parking**: Private lot in front of the restaurant - **Haesintang price**: 70,000 won - **Side dishes**: Basic set plus free refills at the self-serve bar - **Amenities**: Kids' playroom, vending machine coffee and plum tea - **Price reference**: ₩70,000 ≈ $50.5 (2026-09-19) *as written by the visitor on Sep 17, 2026* ![Main image of haesintang at Haepumgye in Songwoo-ri, Pocheon](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-01-5v5gn-900.webp) > The haesintang spot in Songwoo-ri, Pocheon — 'Haepumgye' ![Exterior of Haepumgye on Solmoru-ro in Sohol-eup, Pocheon](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-02-cdu5j-900.webp) ## Where is Haepumgye in Songwoo-ri, Pocheon, and what are its hours? I was out for a day trip to Pocheon. While scouting for somewhere to have dinner, I came across this unusual place whose food photos looked absolutely irresistible, so I decided to check it out. A specialty restaurant for boyangsik (health-boosting food), Pocheon's haesintang spot 'Haepumgye.' - Address: 경기 포천시 소흘읍 솔모루로 164 A동 1층 - Hours: Daily 11:00–21:30 - Parking: Dedicated lot in front of the restaurant ![Interior of Haepumgye with customers on a weekday evening](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-03-ctu17-900.webp) It was around 7pm. Walking inside, I found quite a few customers eating despite it being a weekday. This place... smells like it might be a real find~ ![Haepumgye haesintang table setting served right after reservation](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-04-1f7j6-900.webp) ## One 70,000 won pot of haesintang, served after booking ahead Since we'd reserved ahead, they brought out this generous haesintang faster than the speed of light. The moment we saw it, our eyes went wide... whoa, it's huge... haha ![Self-serve bar at Haepumgye for refilling side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-05-1nkfa-m-900.webp) The basic side dishes are set at the table, but if you run out, you can refill them at this self-serve bar. ![Haepumgye haesintang pot before boiling](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-06-1xc74-900.webp) Look at this gorgeous haesintang! Honestly, it earns a 90 out of 100 on looks alone... I can't wait to boil it up hot and take my first bite. ![Pot filled with chicken and seafood alongside a vegetable basket](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-07-t3831-1200.webp) The pot is packed with chicken and seafood, and they also serve this huge basket bowl separately, filled with fish cakes and various vegetables. It's for shabu-shabu-style dipping once you've eaten your way through the seafood. And now our haesintang is starting to boil~ Bubbling away! ![Giant octopus in the haesintang pot as it starts to boil](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-08-1mga8-900.webp) ## Giant octopus, small octopus and slow-simmered chicken in the pot A giant octopus that really grabs your attention! Let's fish it out and see. ![Plump giant octopus lifted out of the pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-09-rqzyn-900.webp) A really plump, chunky one, right there in the pot. ![A lightly blanched piece of octopus leg](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-10-11qc6-900.webp) Octopus gets tough if you overcook it, so a quick dip and straight into the mouth! Oh~ so tender... T_T ![Slow-simmered chicken pulled from the bottom of the haesintang pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-11-2gec2-900.webp) After eating the octopus and small octopus first, I dug out the slow-simmered chicken that was sitting at the bottom. It was already cooked through so thoroughly that even the breast meat was tender — a properly boyangsik chicken. ![Tender, thoroughly cooked haesintang chicken](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-12-lxfcr-900.webp) ![Fresh shrimp in the haesintang](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-13-kzn8g-900.webp) The shrimp were also really fresh. Being a haesintang specialty restaurant, they seem to use good seafood. ![Haesintang broth with chicken and seafood blended together](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-14-1imwn-900.webp) The broth of this haesintang beautifully combines the savoriness of the slow-cooked chicken with the refreshing taste of the seafood. It's already delicious now, but I imagine I'll be craving Haepumgye's haesintang even more once the cold wind picks up. ![Haesintang pot with fish cakes and vegetables added](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-15-g6x9o-900.webp) ## Fish cake and vegetable shabu-shabu: exactly four fish cakes for four diners Now it's time to drop in the fish cakes and vegetables. Give the napa cabbage and bean sprouts just a light blanch so they stay crunchy! ![Lightly blanched napa cabbage and bean sprouts](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-16-1iecz-900.webp) There were four adult women in our group, and somehow the fish cakes came out in exactly four pieces. Chewy fish cake, cooked to each person's own timing and taste! ![Chewy fish cake served in four pieces](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-17-1nphv-900.webp) This... is a flavor that calls for beer. At this point we couldn't help but order some. The only unlucky ones were the two of us who drove. ![Beer ordered alongside the haesintang](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-18-19z1s-900.webp) ![Haepumgye table spread with beer](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-19-s6eji-900.webp) ## Haepumgye's kids' playroom and free vending machine coffee and plum tea After finishing the meal, I looked around the restaurant and noticed a playroom tucked into one corner — a thoughtful touch for customers visiting with kids. ![Kids' playroom set up in a corner of Haepumgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-20-17g76-m-900.webp) For dessert, there's vending machine coffee ready, ![Vending machine coffee prepared as dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-21-1qm1f-900.webp) and plum tea, which helps with digestion, is also available. ![Plum tea corner that helps with digestion](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-22-qntza-m-900.webp) Autographs from celebrities who've visited Haepumgye. Truly living up to its reputation as a Pocheon local favorite. ![Autographs from celebrities who visited Haepumgye](https://img.superchart.com/images/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye-23-1xjzi-900.webp) ## Is Haepumgye's 70,000 won haesintang enough for four people? My honest review from my first visit to Haepumgye today. There were four adult women in our group, and the portion of haesintang was so generous it was almost a shame we couldn't order the extra calguksu (noodles) or porridge. The haesintang costs ₩70,000, and considering that four adults can share this precious boyangsik dish for that price, it's an incredibly good value spot. All the seafood felt genuinely fresh, and the chicken had absolutely no gamey smell — the flavor was clean and light. If I ever come back to Pocheon for another day trip, this is a place I'd happily revisit! ## Where it is - Haepumgye Pocheon Main Branch (해품계 포천본점) - 경기 포천시 소흘읍 솔모루로 164 A동 1층 - 경기도 포천시 소흘읍 솔모루로 164 A동 1층 - 37.8345059, 127.1527493 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%95%B4%ED%92%88%EA%B3%84%20%ED%8F%AC%EC%B2%9C%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.8345059,127.1527493,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-cupboard-corner/pocheon-songwoori-haesintang-haepumgye/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
