The first thing that comes to mind for a breakfast dish in Jeju is haejangguk (hangover soup) ~

Jeju has so many famous hangover soup spots, but this is my review of Jeju Aewol's hangover soup restaurant ♡ selected as a Gungmin Matjip (nationally-loved restaurant) — Aewol Eomma ~

Aewol Eomma is a hangover soup specialist at 6699 Iljuseo-ro, Aewol-eup, Jeju-si, about 50m west of Sinuem Middle School.
