We ordered suyuk baekban (a boiled pork set meal) and sundae gukbap (sausage soup with rice), and the gangdoenjang (thick soybean paste stew) served with the boiled pork was especially memorable. ![Representative photo of Myeongin Dwaeji Gukbap in Buk-myeon, Changwon](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-01-1aqvt-1200.webp) ## Where is it, and is it easy to visit by car?

It is near Bukmyeon Hot Springs, so I thought it would be a good place to stop for a meal after visiting the hot springs. ![Visit to Myeongin Dwaeji Gukbap near Bukmyeon Hot Springs](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-02-xn5y7-900.webp) The hours listed in the original post are 09:10–20:50, Monday through Sunday. ![Store information at Myeongin Dwaeji Gukbap in Buk-myeon, Changwon](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-03-1musu-882.webp) I visited by car and found parking easy.

The interior was more spacious and tidy than I expected. The tables were not crowded together, so it was comfortable to sit and eat as a family. ![Spacious table area at Myeongin Dwaeji Gukbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-05-jqd8v-900.webp) They also brought baby tableware and cutlery for our child. ![Baby tableware and cutlery provided at Myeongin Dwaeji Gukbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-12-ocwjx-875.webp) ## What were the side dishes and self-service bar like? We ordered suyuk baekban and sundae gukbap. Each of the basic side dishes was neatly arranged. ![Meal table setting ordered at Myeongin Dwaeji Gukbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-06-1qnhy-900.webp) ![Basic side dishes served with a meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-07-dbgvp-900.webp) Kimchi and mu-mallaengi (dried seasoned radish) were served, and I noticed that gangdoenjang came with the meal as well. The owner emphasized the gangdoenjang, so I decided to try it first when the rice arrived. ![Kimchi and dried seasoned radish side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-08-1v5e3-900.webp) ![Side dishes served with the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-09-9twyg-900.webp) ![Gangdoenjang served with a meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-10-cgqk4-900.webp) We could get more side dishes from the self-service bar. It was neatly kept, too. ![Neatly organized self-service bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-11-k6631-857.webp) ## Did the suyuk baekban pair well with gangdoenjang? The suyuk baekban was filling because it came with both warm broth and boiled pork. The portion also felt generous, and the balance of fat and lean meat was good. The pork tasted clean, without any unpleasant smell. ![Boiled pork served with suyuk baekban](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-13-13tbh-900.webp) The boiled pork was also good with mu-mallaengi, but the gangdoenjang suited my taste especially well. ![Gangdoenjang eaten with boiled pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-14-yhu7f-506.webp) The gangdoenjang was salty and went well with rice. I did not miss having ssamjang, and it was tasty even when I made ssam (leaf wraps) with just rice and gangdoenjang, without meat. ![Ssam eaten with gangdoenjang](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-15-1h8hj-900.webp) It was nice to have the accompanying broth while eating the boiled pork. The broth tasted clean, and after mixing in the dadegi (spicy seasoning paste), it felt like eating a bowl of gukbap. ![Broth eaten with suyuk baekban](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-16-1jc5o-897.webp) ## How were the ingredients and flavor of the sundae gukbap? The sundae gukbap had plenty of sundae and meat. I added chives and dadegi to taste, then seasoned it with saeujeot (salted shrimp). ![Sundae gukbap served with chives](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-17-177sw-900.webp) The meat sundae, filled with meat and glass noodles, was good too. ![Meat sundae in sundae gukbap](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-18-vipih-900.webp) ## Were there drinks after the meal? On the way out, I was glad to see cocoa at the coffee machine. Iced coffee was available too. ![Cocoa and coffee drink area](https://img.superchart.com/images/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap-19-1is32-858.webp) ## Where it is - Myeongin Dwaeji Gukbap (명인돼지국밥) (명인돼지국밥) - 897 Cheonju-ro, Buk-myeon, Uichang-gu, Changwon, Gyeongnam, South Korea - 경상남도 창원시 의창구 북면 천주로 897 명인돼지국밥 - 35.3332295, 128.5990136 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%AA%85%EC%9D%B8%EB%8F%BC%EC%A7%80%EA%B5%AD%EB%B0%A5/@35.3332295,128.5990136,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@meal-sketchbook/myeongin-bukmyeon-suyuk-gukbap/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
