The 24,000 won A Set pairs braised cutlassfish, grilled tilefish, abalone seafood stew, stone-pot rice, and soy-marinated crab. A satisfying choice after a day of flour-based meals and sightseeing. ## Good to know - **A Set**: ₩24,000 per person - **C Set**: ₩16,000 - **Abalone seafood stew, à la carte**: ₩15,000 - **Parking**: Street parking in front of the restaurant *as written by the visitor on Sep 12, 2026* When traveling in Jeju, you end up eating Jeju specialties like black pork, mackerel, and cutlassfish quite often. But after having flour-based food all day, there are times when you really crave a proper rice meal for dinner. Since we had eaten flour-based food for lunch that day, we decided on Korean food for dinner and headed to Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon in Seongsan. It had a set that let us eat everything from braised cutlassfish and grilled tilefish to sticky stone-pot rice and soy-marinated crab all at once, so it was a great fit when we wanted a full Jeju-style spread. ## Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon exterior and parking ![Exterior of Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-01-1gfkn-1200.webp) The yellow building was easy to spot. There was no need to look for a separate parking lot; we simply parked along the street in front of the restaurant. ## Weekday evening atmosphere We arrived at around 5:30 p.m. on a weekday and could park and walk right in. At that time, only about two groups were eating, so it felt relaxed, but diners started coming in quickly as 6 p.m. approached. There were office workers having dinner after work as well as families, so it seemed to get quite busy at dinnertime. ![Interior of Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon on a weekday evening](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-02-thh92-550.webp) The restaurant was generally neat and tidy, with the feel of a Korean restaurant. There were plenty of tables, so it looked comfortable for a meal for two as well as a family visit. Shell, fish, and other sea-inspired decorations were placed around the space. Since we had come to Jeju for seafood dishes, those little details suited the restaurant nicely. ![Restaurant space with sea-themed decorations](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-03-hef4o-550.webp) One thing worth grabbing in advance is an apron. Once again, I only went to get one after spilling broth. Truly closing the barn door after the horse has bolted. If you order something brothy like braised cutlassfish or stew in a ttukbaegi (earthenware pot), I recommend picking up an apron before the food arrives. ## C Set and A Set prices ![Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-04-132qr-550.webp) ![Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon set menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-05-1sytw-550.webp) Personally, the C Set was what first caught my eye on the menu. An à la carte abalone seafood stew alone costs ₩15,000, but the ₩16,000 C Set also comes with grilled tilefish, sticky stone-pot rice, and soy-marinated crab. For just ₩1,000 more, the set looked much more worthwhile. ## A full spread with the A Set for two ![A Set spread at Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-06-ra37o-550.webp) Since we were in Jeju, we decided to do it properly and ordered two portions of the A Set. (₩24,000 per person) ![A Set full spread with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-07-145mc-550.webp) Not long after we ordered, the side dishes were set out first. The abalone seafood stew arrived first. Then the braised cutlassfish, grilled tilefish, and sticky stone-pot rice came out one after another, and before we knew it, the table was full. A spread like this really makes you feel that you are having a meal in Jeju. ### Side dishes and soy-marinated crab Rather than having an overwhelming number of side dishes, each one was neatly prepared. ![A Set basic side-dish selection](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-08-1daly-550.webp) ![Basic side dishes in the full spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-09-1p2qo-550.webp) ![Basic side dishes included in the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-10-1xe28-550.webp) ![Side dishes in a Jeju full spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-11-3jf4m-550.webp) ![Basic side dishes with soy-marinated crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-12-4taif-550.webp) ![Neatly prepared side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-13-1ahuc-550.webp) Soy-marinated crab was included in the set too. It had hardly any fishy taste and was not overly salty, so it was easy to enjoy. My husband and I nicely split it, two pieces each. ### Stone-pot rice and preparing scorched rice I moved the rice from the pot into our bowls and poured water into the remaining pot. It had been a while since I had eaten stone-pot rice, and freshly cooked rice really is a little different from plain white rice. The grains were sticky with a lovely texture, so it was delicious even without side dishes. I put the lid back on to make nurungji (scorched rice) and started the meal in earnest. ### The broth of the abalone seafood stew The abalone seafood stew had a doenjang (fermented soybean paste) broth. It tasted similar to the familiar Korean crab soup, kkotgetang, with a pleasantly spicy kick and a refreshing broth. ![Doenjang-based abalone seafood stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-14-i8s8n-550.webp) Above all, it had quite a lot of blue crab in it. The savory richness of the doenjang and the clean flavor of the seafood went wonderfully with rice. ![Seafood stew with blue crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-15-1k0ps-550.webp) There was a reason we chose Korean food for dinner: with hot broth like this, it really felt like we were having a proper meal. ### Spicy braised cutlassfish and braised radish The braised cutlassfish had a pleasantly spicy seasoning. ![Braised cutlassfish with spicy seasoning](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-16-jxk6r-550.webp) A piece of cutlassfish over rice was delicious, but the sauce itself was so good that lightly mixing it into the rice was incredibly moreish too. ![Braised cutlassfish served with rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-17-1c8wv-550.webp) ![Braised cutlassfish sauce and fish](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-18-l7o5l-550.webp) ![Braised radish infused with seasoning](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-19-1h5b5-550.webp) And is anyone else more excited for the braised radish than the fish in a fish braise? Me!! Put a piece of cutlassfish on white rice and top it with a piece of braised radish too, and it is just so good. Some days I look forward more to the radish soaked in seasoning than the fish, and this was one of those days—I kept reaching for it. ### Crispy, chewy grilled tilefish The grilled tilefish had crisp skin. The skin was nicely seasoned, so it was pleasantly salty on its own, while the flesh had a firm, chewy texture. ![Crisply grilled tilefish](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-20-u755q-550.webp) I generally like fish with firm, chewy flesh like tilefish, so I really enjoyed it. ![Chewy grilled tilefish flesh](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-21-yuda7-550.webp) ![Grilled tilefish in the A Set](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-22-102wf-550.webp) Another advantage of the A Set was being able to eat both a seasoned fish dish like braised cutlassfish and simply grilled fish on the same spread. ### Scorched rice and coffee after the meal The pot where I had poured water after serving the rice had turned into nurungji, so there was still something to enjoy at the end. Having it with the seafood stew broth made for a nice finish to the meal. ![Scorched rice to finish the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-23-v76xr-550.webp) Restaurants like this often have instant coffee available, but this one had a coffee machine where you could make an Americano or espresso. If we had visited for lunch, I think I would have made myself a cup, but since it was dinner, I reluctantly held back. ![Coffee machine for Americanos and espresso](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon-24-18mje-550.webp) At Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon Seongsan Ilchulbong Branch, you can enjoy braised cutlassfish and grilled tilefish—two dishes you may want to eat at least once in Jeju—on one spread, along with sticky stone-pot rice and soy-marinated crab, so the price felt reasonable for what was included. It seemed worth stopping by when you want a Jeju-style full-course Korean meal after visiting Seongsan Ilchulbong or Seopjikoji. Gwangchigi Beach is right next door too, making it a nice place for a seaside walk after eating to help digest. ## Where it is - Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon Seongsan Ilchulbong Branch (제주로운청해원 성산일출봉점) (제주로운청해원 성산일출봉점) - 101 Sinyang-ro, Seongsan-eup, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, South Korea - 제주특별자치도 서귀포시 성산읍 신양로 101 1층 제주로운청해원 성산일출봉점 - 33.4366855, 126.9206785 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%A0%9C%EC%A3%BC%EB%A1%9C%EC%9A%B4%EC%B2%AD%ED%95%B4%EC%9B%90%20%EC%84%B1%EC%82%B0%EC%9D%BC%EC%B6%9C%EB%B4%89%EC%A0%90/@33.4366855,126.9206785,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@island-lunch-ledger/seongsan-jeju-dinner-gejang-cheonghaewon/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
