White pork ribs 1kg with family in Jungmun, Jeju: Oreumak Garden
In short
Oreumak Garden Jungmun Main Branch is a 40-year-old black pork restaurant in Jungmun, Seogwipo, and the first in Jeju to start dry-aging its meat. Since the writer's daughter struggles with black pork's chewy texture, the family ordered 600g of white pork raw ribs and 350g of seasoned ribs, and even accounting for bone weight, the three of them finished 1kg together. The flavor of the meat itself was on another level, making the 13 consecutive years on the Blue Ribbon Survey easy to understand.

Once a day black pork is basically mandatory when you're in Jeju! This time we found a place with real history in Jungmun — Oreumak Garden Jungmun Main Branch. It's the first dry-aging BBQ restaurant on Jeju island, and a black pork specialist with 40 years of tradition.
Honestly, being selected for the Blue Ribbon Survey for 13 consecutive years is basically enough of an introduction on its own, haha. Not just the meat but the rice/noodle dishes are also great value, which is why so many locals come here too — if you're traveling in Jungmun, you should definitely have at least one meal here.
Location and parking at Oreumak Garden Jungmun Main Branch
Oreumak Garden Jungmun Main Branch is easy to find just a short walk down the alley across from Jungmun Health Center. It's also very close to major Jungmun-area hotels like Grand Josun and Lotte Hotel, so the location is really good.
With long hours from 10am to 10pm, it's easy to visit any time from morning to evening. Just note there's a break time from 3pm to 5pm — and one downside, it's closed every Sunday!
There's a big parking lot right next to the restaurant, so even beginner drivers with rental cars can visit without any parking stress.
What's the atmosphere like?
Right in front of Oreumak Garden Jungmun Main Branch you immediately see the Blue Ribbon Survey selection marks. Wow, how many of these are there haha. Honestly, being an old restaurant, I was a little let down by the visible signs of age here and there in the space... but the 13 consecutive years of Blue Ribbon Survey marks are overwhelming, lol.
Proof of a great restaurant is everywhere, lol.
Unlike the old exterior, the inside is clean and spacious.
True to a spot that locals flock to, people kept streaming in nonstop.
Oreumak Garden Jungmun Main Branch is apparently famous as the first restaurant in Jeju to do dry-aging. Great visuals, lol.
Menu at Oreumak Garden Jungmun Main Branch
The signature dish at Oreumak Garden Jungmun Main Branch is dry-aged black pork. But since our daughter still can't handle the chewy texture of black pork very well, we ordered white pork raw ribs and seasoned ribs instead. Next time, I definitely have to try the dry-aged black pork!
I saw the table next to us eating, and the rice/noodle dishes looked really appetizing too. And the prices are pretty good! Right at lunchtime, people who work nearby came pouring in and ate quickly before heading back, haha. Definitely a place locals frequent.
White pork raw ribs 600g, seasoned ribs 350g review
Clean, simple side dishes. We ordered white pork raw ribs 300g x2 (600g total) and seasoned ribs 350g. Even factoring in bone weight, it's a generous portion overall. No wonder it felt like a lot while eating... we ended up finishing 1kg, lol.
The complimentary steamed egg custard. Nicely done, lol.
This is the mel jeot (fermented anchovy sauce) for dipping the meat — they gave us a whole bowl of it, haha.
Wow, so generous, lol.
You can tell just by looking — this is definitely going to be delicious meat. The color and visual are excellent.
The seasoned ribs that our daughter was going to devour.
Alright, let's grill it up nicely!
Wow, the raw ribs are absolutely gorgeous.
Honestly, I usually think all meat tastes more or less the same... but this place has a depth of flavor on a totally different level. No really, the meat itself is just different! No wonder it's a Blue Ribbon Survey spot.
The first bite, just with a little salt~ From the second bite on, mel jeot and a wrap~ Meat on the bone really is the best, lol.
The seasoned ribs are really, really good. A flavor kids will love.
Our daughter ate so happily and so well!
No wonder she ate so much, lol. Looks like the food coma is setting in...
