A married couple ordered 400g of oegyeopsal (five-layer pork belly) with a free kimchi stew, dipped it in myeoljeot mixed with galchisokjeot (salted fish sauces), and drank bokbunja mixed with soju. The chewy skin and gentle smoky flavor made Jeju Doldam a solid drinking-and-grilling spot, and hangjeongsal and gabrisal are next on the list. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 16:00-23:00 - **Ordering**: Kiosk at each table - **Dish ordered**: Jeju black pork oegyeopsal (five-layer pork belly), 400g - **On the house**: Free kimchi stew - **Grilling**: Grilled by staff - **Capacity**: Up to 44 guests - **Drinks**: One bottle each of bokbunja and Jinro soju *as written by the visitor on Sep 15, 2026* ![Exterior of Jeju Doldam Sangnam Main Branch, a Korean BBQ restaurant in Sangnam-dong, Changwon](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-01-1pnp4-m-966.webp) Had dinner out with my wife for the first time in a while. Jeju Doldam, a Korean BBQ restaurant in Sangnam-dong, Changwon. She said she'd heard the meat here was great and wanted to book a table, and since black pork is one of my favorite things ever, I followed along without a second thought. The place was decorated in a nicely Jeju-style vibe. ![Entrance of Jeju Doldam Sangnam Main Branch with business hours sign](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-02-592a5-m-966.webp) ## Jeju Doldam Sangnam Main Branch hours and what the room feels like Jeju Doldam, a BBQ restaurant in Sangnam-dong, Changwon, is open daily from 16:00 to 23:00. ![Meat aging chamber placed at the restaurant entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-03-upwmf-m-966.webp) ![Raw black pork hanging inside the aging chamber](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-04-1ra2b-966.webp) What caught my eye before I even walked in was the aging chamber sitting right at the entrance. You basically can't help but look at it as you walk through the entrance, so I gave it a quick glance on my way in — the raw meat looked great, with an appetizing color already. It got my expectations up before we even sat down to eat. The restaurant has an open, straight-through layout so it never felt cramped, and it can seat up to 44 people, which makes it look like a good spot not just for family meals but for wedding after-parties or bigger group dinners and gatherings. The place leans into its Jeju identity with basalt rock embedded in the walls — my own guess is that's exactly why they named it Jeju Doldam (Jeju stone wall). ![Restaurant interior decorated with basalt rock walls](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-05-1mjw0-966.webp) ## How much pork belly for two? 400g of Jeju black pork oegyeopsal Check the menu board — you order through the kiosk sitting on each table. ![Jeju Doldam menu board and table kiosk](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-06-fxyrx-966.webp) Since it was just the two of us, we ordered the Jeju black pork oegyeopsal (five-layer pork belly), 400g. ![Raw Jeju black pork oegyeopsal 400g as ordered](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-07-x9xi3-966.webp) ### Banchan and the free kimchi stew at Jeju Doldam My wife, who'd been here once before, said the side dishes were still as good as ever, praising the myeoljeot (fermented anchovy sauce) and galchisokjeot (fermented hairtail entrails) combo. There were a few nice palate-cleansing sides too — we nibbled on macaroni salad and pink sausage while waiting for the main event, the black pork. ![Basic side dishes including macaroni salad and pink sausage](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-08-1fu0u-966.webp) As a certified kimchi lover, I was already sold the moment mukeunji (aged kimchi) showed up as a side dish. I kept gushing about how good the kimchi was through the whole meal, and the owner, who's got a great sense of humor, took it in stride. ![Aged kimchi served as a side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-09-1hddf-966.webp) And then — a kimchi stew too? ![Free aged-kimchi stew served with the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-10-1b8ki-966.webp) It's a free service item, so I wasn't expecting much, but the kimchi stew turned out even better than I thought. It really brought out that tangy, deep flavor unique to aged kimchi. You can eat meat without ever hitting a greasy wall as long as you rinse your palate with the kimchi in between — that's basically unlimited-meat mode for me. ![Kimchi stew pot boiling on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-11-10muq-966.webp) ![Black pork oegyeopsal placed on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-12-1tp43-966.webp) ## Staff grill the Jeju black pork for you Jeju Doldam is a restaurant where staff grill the meat for you. It was nice being able to just relax and chat while eating. ![Staff member grilling the oegyeopsal directly](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-13-h1cvv-966.webp) We only ordered the oegyeopsal at first, and I later spotted hangjeongsal (pork neck) and gabrisal (pork shoulder blade) on the menu and regretted not ordering one of each — but honestly, the oegyeopsal alone was more than satisfying. ![Jeju black pork oegyeopsal grilling to a golden brown](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-14-11ro9-966.webp) Anyway, being oegyeopsal (five-layer pork belly), the fat-to-meat ratio here was insane. Great balance between the lean meat and the fat layers, and the skin stayed chewy all the way through. ![Cross-section of oegyeopsal showing layered meat and fat](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-15-1igzf-1200.webp) Too much lean meat gets dry, too much fat gets greasy fast, but here there was just the right amount of lean meat with rich, savory fat attached, so the juices burst out more with every chew. Add in that chewy skin texture and I actually think ordering just the oegyeopsal wasn't a bad call at all. ![Grilled oegyeopsal with a smoky finish](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-16-15ar9-966.webp) The meat was nicely smoked, giving off a faint aroma almost like rice-straw-grilled samgyeopsal, which made it taste even better — that's Jeju Doldam, the BBQ restaurant in Sangnam-dong, Changwon, for you. ![A full plate of sliced, grilled black pork oegyeopsal](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-17-oo6jn-966.webp) ![A piece of oegyeopsal about to be dipped in salt](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-18-9yy8s-966.webp) ### Salt, myeoljeot with galchisokjeot, and lettuce wraps The first bite has to go straight to salt — that's just the unwritten rule. We both went for salt at the exact same time, haha. Dipping it plain in salt kept the focus on the pork's own flavor. ![Small dishes of myeoljeot and galchisokjeot dipping sauces](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-19-m8jgh-966.webp) ![A piece of oegyeopsal dipped in the fermented sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-20-1fo31-966.webp) The myeoljeot + galchisokjeot combo was genuinely delicious. My wife recommended it and the moment I tried it, my mouth just lit up. The salty, deep, fermented aroma cut nicely through the fattiness of the oegyeopsal. ![A lettuce wrap topped with meat and kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-21-xs8y7-966.webp) Had to try a lettuce wrap too, haha — a piece of pork on a sesame leaf, plus kimchi and a bit of the fermented sauce, all wrapped into one bite. ![Holding up a finished lettuce wrap](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-22-waa2w-966.webp) ![Bottles of bokbunja and soju set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-23-1296x-966.webp) ## Bokbunja mixed with soju: the couple's drink of the night It's a shame to eat meat without a drink, right? We ordered one bottle each of bokbunja (Korean black raspberry wine) and Jinro soju and mixed them. Bokbunja with sprite is great, bokbunja and soju 1:1 is great too — whatever suits your taste! Honestly the best move is just drinking bokbunja straight, but we pulled the budget-friendly trick(?) of cutting it with soju. ![A glass of bokbunja mixed with soju next to grilled oegyeopsal](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal-24-p1ip7-966.webp) Having the meat grilled for us made everything easy, and the Jeju black pork oegyeopsal's chewy skin plus that gentle charcoal smoke flavor made it a great pairing with drinks. Next time we come back, we're ordering hangjeongsal and gabrisal too, so we can properly compare the different cuts. If you're looking for a good spot for a meat dinner out, I'd recommend stopping by Jeju Doldam, the BBQ restaurant in Sangnam-dong, Changwon. ## Where it is - Jeju Doldam Sangnam Main Branch (제주돌담 상남동본점) - 21 Madimi-ro 73beon-gil, 1st floor, Unit 101, Seongsan-gu, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea - 경상남도 창원시 성산구 마디미로73번길 21 1층 101호 - 35.2193267, 128.6828118 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%A0%9C%EC%A3%BC%EB%8F%8C%EB%8B%B4%20%EC%83%81%EB%82%A8%EB%8F%99%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@35.2193267,128.6828118,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@haeundae-back-grill/jeju-dolm-sangnam-heukdwaeji-ogyeopsal/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
