## In short

Bulnaneun Jjukkumi Main Branch is a jjukkumi (stir-fried webfoot octopus) restaurant on Handeul 2-ro in Baekseok-dong, Cheonan, Chungnam. On the recommendation of a friend who has lived in Cheonan for years, the writer ordered the spicy set of jjukkumi, shrimp tempura and pot rice, adding sundubu (soft tofu) from the self-serve bar and a refreshing cold soup. Verdict: the Bulnaneun Jjukkumi sauce is not just hot but smoky and savory, and the set makes a filling meal on its own.

Hi, this is Chiri. I went to stay at a friend's place during vacation, and my friend, who's lived in Cheonan for a long time, confidently recommended a place she said was genuinely delicious.

She said the sauce on the jjukkumi was especially well made — spicy but full of savory depth — so I went in with high expectations.

Hours are 11:00–21:30, and parking is available.

The signature menu is a set combining jjukkumi + shrimp tempura or perilla kalguksu (perilla-seed noodle soup) + pot rice, and you can choose the spice level to your taste.

![Menu board for griddle jjukkumi, pork belly, and extra noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-10-c3xh8-900.webp)

There's also a griddle-cooked jjukkumi menu and one with pork belly added. With side dishes and extra noodles too, it's set up well for a group to each pick what they like.

## Basic side dishes, cold soup, and shrimp tempura

![Basic side dishes laid out on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-11-16j48-966.webp)

![Basic side dishes that pair well with spicy food](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-12-1vadf-900.webp)

Not long after ordering, the basic side dishes were set out. They're good to eat alongside spicy food, and overall they felt fresh, which I really liked.

![Cool cold soup that goes well with summer](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-13-jwdu4-900.webp)

And especially, a cool cold soup that goes well with spicy food in summer, all ready to go!

![Two shrimp tempura pieces included in the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-14-1jts3-900.webp)

When you order the set, you get two shrimp tempura pieces. The shrimp were bigger than I expected, so the look of them was great.

The batter was fried nice and crispy, and the shrimp meat inside was plump too.

## The spicy jjukkumi spread — how was the sauce?

![A generous spread of jjukkumi laid out on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-15-1fjfd-900.webp)

A little while later, the main dish, jjukkumi, was laid out as a generous spread. True to being a well-known jjukkumi restaurant in Baekseok-dong, Cheonan, the portion was really substantial.

![Spicy jjukkumi with a rising smoky aroma](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-16-11aq9-900.webp)

We picked the spicy option, and a subtle smoky flame aroma rose up, pulling my appetite in right away.

![A bite of spicy jjukkumi with sauce well soaked in](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-17-thqa0-900.webp)

After one bite, I understood why my friend wanted to come here. It wasn't a sauce that was just spicy — the savory depth was fully alive too.

It's a spicy yet delicious sauce that soaks naturally into the jjukkumi.

![Pot rice served together with the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-18-igk11-900.webp)

![Chewy pot rice with scorched rice at the bottom](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-19-yu20j-900.webp)

The set also comes with pot rice, and the rice grains were chewy and had a nice nutty flavor. You know you have to eat the nurungji (scorched rice) too, right, haha.

I put various side dishes and jjukkumi on top of the rice and mixed it all up to my taste. The spicy sauce seeps in between the rice grains, and it's a combination that keeps you reaching for more.

![Rice mixed with side dishes and jjukkumi on top](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-20-m40hf-900.webp)

If you usually like spicy food, choosing the spicy option like I did will really make you go 'wow.' As a well-known jjukkumi spot in Cheonan, the sauce itself is in a league of its own, unlike food that's just spicy for the sake of it.

## Self-serve sundubu and coffee

![Self-serve bar for extra side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-21-19qg2-900.webp)

Besides the basic side dishes provided, there's a self-serve menu you can go get more of, so you can use as much as you need comfortably.

![Sundubu brought from the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-22-xlf35-900.webp)

Among them, the sundubu (soft tofu) was really delicious. Eating the smoothly-going-down sundubu between bites of spicy jjukkumi tames the heat in your mouth.

![Coffee machine used after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set/cheonan-baekseok-spicy-webfoot-octopus-set-23-rq7eb-900.webp)

There's also a machine for coffee after your meal. Finish off your spicy meal with a cup of coffee~

## Why you should go / overall review

- The harmony of jjukkumi and a deeply savory sauce
- Shrimp tempura, kalguksu, and pot rice all together
- A spacious restaurant with plenty of seats, plus a self-serve bar

It wasn't just intensely spicy — the smoky flavor and savory depth came through together, and with the pot rice and side dishes, it was a filling meal on its own.
