The writer built a custom dongchimi broth noodle bowl and shared moist bossam (boiled pork wraps) with her baby, enjoying floor-to-ceiling ocean views, free dedicated parking, and easy baby-chair setup. A great last stop to settle the stomach on the final day of a Gangneung trip. ## Good to know - **Location**: 42 Gonghang-gil 127beon-gil, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do, South Korea, 1st floor - **Hours**: 10:30–20:00 - **Closed**: Every Monday - **Parking**: Free dedicated parking lot on site - **Ordered**: Mak guksu ₩11,000, Bossam set ₩29,000 *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* ![Mak guksu and bossam table setting at Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu Namhangjin branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-01-jrx25-1200.webp) ![Table at the ocean-view mak guksu restaurant in Namhangjin, Gangneung](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-02-ufew8-900.webp) ![A bowl of mak guksu with dongchimi broth added](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-03-133j7-900.webp) ![Vertical photo at Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu Namhangjin branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-04-o6kq1-m-900.webp) > Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu Namhangjin branch, a Gangneung mak guksu favorite / an ocean-view restaurant to bring your baby to / bossam and mak guksu, the perfect combo ⭐️ ## The place we go back to every last day in Gangneung Our go-to spot again on this Gangneung trip ~! We visited Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu Namhangjin branch, a place we've been going to since we were dating 😍 We always eat at Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu on the last day of our Gangwon-do trips before heading back. After days of greasy, heavy food, one bowl of cold dongchimi mak guksu makes my stomach feel instantly refreshed — I can't forget that feeling ~ 👏 This time we went to the Namhangjin branch, and apparently it's the only dongchimi mak guksu restaurant in Gangneung with an ocean view!! ## Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu Namhangjin branch: location, hours, parking - 📍 Location: 42 Gonghang-gil 127beon-gil, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do, South Korea, 1st floor - ⏰ Hours: 10:30–20:00 - ※ Closed every Monday - 🚗 Parking: Free dedicated parking lot on site ![View of the Namhangjin sea from the restaurant entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-05-19mju-900.webp) ## What's the ocean view and atmosphere like? The moment we arrived, this gorgeous ocean view opened up!! I was excited from the entrance already. Eating mak guksu while looking out at this view feels like being at a fancy restaurant. It's also close to Anmok Café Street, so it's great for a coffee after your meal. There's a nice walking path too, so we enjoyed a stroller walk with our baby. Ocean view for the win! Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu Namhangjin branch opened in 1998 and finished remodeling in 2023, so the interior is really sleek and clean now. Bright light pours in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and with the artwork on the walls and pretty table chairs, the owner's sense of style really shows. 👍 Wow... there were so many celebrity signatures. Between us and all the celebrities who've come back again and again, this is clearly a Gangneung mak guksu place that once you visit, you'll definitely return to!!! ![Remodeled restaurant interior with artwork on the wall](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-06-11jgz-900.webp) ![Celebrity signatures on the wall](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-07-1jve8-900.webp) ## Is it okay to bring a baby? The owner was super kind too — right away helping set up the baby chair and dishes, and checking in again to see if we needed anything else. As a mom of twins, I get really moved by this kind of thing ^_^ I remember the staff being just as kind when we visited a different branch before..!! ![Baby sitting in a regular chair waiting for the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-08-4lzsd-m-900.webp) Our excited little girl!!! Pacifier tucked into a paper cup, ready to eat 🧑‍🍳 She screamed that she wouldn't sit in the baby chair haha, so she sat in a regular chair instead, and it worked out fine ## Menu at Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu Namhangjin branch ![Menu board at Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu Namhangjin branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-09-znd40-900.webp) ![Menu board showing mak guksu and bossam prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-10-1rkyl-900.webp) ![Restaurant menu information sign](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-11-1wdic-900.webp) > What we ordered 🧑‍🍳 Mak guksu ₩11,000 / Bossam set ₩29,000 ![Table set with mak guksu and bossam](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-12-js7r5-900.webp) Finally, the mak guksu and bossam arrived!!! I'd been craving this so much. 🧡 The dongchimi is truly the kick here‼️ Dongchimi cuts through that heavy, buckwheat-forward taste — you know, the buckwheat smell some people don't love — and blends it into something refreshing, so even people who don't usually like mak guksu will end up loving this dongchimi version. ![Bowl of mak guksu with buckwheat noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-13-1ifq0-900.webp) ## How do you customize the dongchimi broth? Especially!!! The biggest feature of Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu is that 📌you build your own mak guksu + seasoning combo to your own taste. They don't sell bibim (spicy mixed) and mul (broth) mak guksu separately — instead, you mix your own dongchimi broth and seasoning to your liking, and that's this place's biggest signature. For those of us with decision paralysis like me haha, this actually works out great!? ![Set of sauce containers on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-14-1htcq-900.webp) I made my own tasty dongchimi mak guksu using the sauces from this really clean sauce caddy. ![Ladling dongchimi broth into the mak guksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-15-146s6-900.webp) ![Dongchimi mak guksu made with mustard and vinegar added](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-16-eoiki-900.webp) First, I scooped in 4 ladles of dongchimi broth. Then add mustard, vinegar, and sugar to taste. I went heavy on the vinegar and mustard~ ![Finished dongchimi mak guksu, mixed and ready](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-17-107a9-900.webp) ![Noodles lifted up from the dongchimi mak guksu bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-18-1wsus-900.webp) And wrapping it up with this moist bossam — how good is that combo!? ![Wrapping bossam pork into a lettuce wrap](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-19-13obn-900.webp) ![Plate of bossam with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-20-151a9-900.webp) Apparently Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu makes their dongchimi and side dishes in-house!! Maybe that's why the dongchimi feels even more refreshing and deep in flavor. ![In-house made dongchimi and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-21-110lw-900.webp) ![Sikhae and salted shrimp side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-22-vwl94-533.webp) ## Why the bossam pork stays so moist And this place ⭐️ the bossam is seriously so moist and tender. I really love bossam so I order it alongside mak guksu wherever we go — and so many places boil it ahead of time and it comes out dry by the time it's served, you know? But here! It's genuinely as tender and moist as if it were just boiled, melting the moment it hits your mouth. My daughter doesn't usually eat meat with much texture, only finely minced meat — but she picked up this bossam and tore into it with her hands!!!! That says it all ✔️ And the sikhae (fermented fish rice) was sweet enough to pair beautifully with the bossam, making an amazing combo with the mak guksu too. Wrapped it up with salted shrimp and sikhae and it disappeared in no time. ![Baby holding up the bowl to drink the mak guksu broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-23-178kk-900.webp) Lol our daughter, picking up the whole bowl to drink from. She insisted on gulping down the bossam and mak guksu broth all at once... My daughter who had no appetite even at the hotel buffet found her appetite here ^_^ If you're traveling in Gangneung, I highly recommend stopping by Samgyori Makguksu Namhangjin branch for a bowl of mak guksu and bossam!! ![Table after the meal with the ocean view in the background](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view-24-1mci2-900.webp) ## Where it is - Samgyori Dongchimi Makguksu Namhangjin branch (삼교리동치미막국수 남항진점) - 42 Gonghang-gil 127beon-gil, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do, South Korea, 1st floor - 강원특별자치도 강릉시 공항길127번길 42 1층 삼교리동치미막국수 남항진점 - 37.7655797, 128.9526014 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%82%BC%EA%B5%90%EB%A6%AC%EB%8F%99%EC%B9%98%EB%AF%B8%EB%A7%89%EA%B5%AD%EC%88%98%20%EB%82%A8%ED%95%AD%EC%A7%84%EC%A0%90/@37.7655797,128.9526014,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@hillside-meals/gangneung-namhangjin-dongchimi-makguksu-ocean-view/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
