Stopping in for an early lunch during a train trip, the writer tried the gochujang jumulleok (spicy marinated pork) cooked tableside on a griddle, plus handmade banchan the owner's mother makes daily, like shrimp jang and eggplant. The side dishes alone were good enough to finish a bowl of rice, making it a favorite jumulleok spot near Pyeongtaek Station. ## Good to know - **Location**: 8-minute walk or 3-minute drive from Pyeongtaek Station - **Address**: 52 Pyeongtaek 1-ro 9beon-gil, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - **Hours**: 07:00–21:00 (break time 15:00–17:00, last order 20:00) - **Lunch set**: Pyeongtaek Jumul Honbap Set — pork jumulleok + hangover soup + rice + 4 side dishes, ₩10,000 - **Order tip**: Rice is ordered separately; oil and gim (dried seaweed) are free if you order fried rice - **Seating**: 3 private rooms, tables for 4/6/8, baby chairs available *as written by the visitor on Sep 9, 2026* ![Signature photo of gochujang jumulleok at Pyeongtaek Jumulleok Pyeongtaek Station Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-01-1ov9f-1200.webp) I visited Pyeongtaek for the first time in a while, and I found a favorite gochujang jumulleok place near Pyeongtaek Station. Here's the review. ## How far is it from Pyeongtaek Station? Pyeongtaek Jumulleok is located near Pyeongtaek Station, about an 8-minute walk or a 3-minute drive away. I was passing through on a train trip so I walked there, and it was a nice way to feel autumn under warm sunlight. ## Atmosphere ![The weathered exterior of Pyeongtaek Jumulleok](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-02-lbqpv-966.webp) Pyeongtaek Jumulleok Pyeongtaek Station Branch is a designated Baengnyeon Gagae (a government-recognized century-old store) with 50 years of history. Maybe that's why it had an exterior showing its age. We all know that kind of vibe means a real hidden gem, right? ![The interior of Pyeongtaek Jumulleok, still showing the old house structure](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-03-1tx9x-966.webp) The interior still kept the frame of the old house it was built in. It was divided into what looked like three former rooms. I was seated in the 'Maesil' (plum) room, which you enter with your shoes on. ![A table in the shoes-on Maesil room](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-04-6u10k-966.webp) I came in early for lunch, and unlike the weathered sign outside, the tables inside were clean and spacious. There were tables for 4, 6, and 8 people, and baby chairs too, so it looked great for family meals as well as group gatherings or company dinners. ![The dining hall with spacious tables for various group sizes](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-05-114cs-966.webp) ![Seating at Pyeongtaek Jumulleok, good for group gatherings](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-06-155q3-966.webp) It turns out this is a genuine local favorite that has appeared on several TV shows! ![A wall displaying the restaurant's TV appearances](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-07-1v6ji-966.webp) ![A wall of Baengnyeon Gagae award certificates](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-08-y1jtt-966.webp) Fitting for a Baengnyeon Gagae, the walls were lined with various awards, and after tasting the gochujang jumulleok, I immediately understood why. ![Sign for the Pyeongtaek Jumul Honbap lunch special](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-09-t2kt0-966.webp) They also run a lunch special (the Pyeongtaek Jumul Honbap Set) — pork jumulleok, hangover soup, rice, and 4 side dishes — for just ₩10,000, which made it look like a great lunch spot too. ## The food ![Kiosk screen showing gochujang jumulleok labeled as 'MZ Popular'](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-10-9uasu-966.webp) ### Gochujang jumulleok I ordered the gochujang jumulleok labeled 'MZ Popular' (that's what it said on the kiosk, haha). Once I tasted it, I immediately understood why it's so popular. ![A full spread of handmade side dishes on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-11-1xdap-966.webp) ![Home-style side dishes including eggplant, white kimchi, and cucumber muchim](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-12-1yelc-966.webp) ### What about the side dishes? Once you order, the banchan (side dishes) come out, and these side dishes are genuinely delicious. The spicy-sweet and sweet-salty flavors stood out, and I thought, ah, this is really homemade. So I asked the owner, and she said her mother makes them every day. That's probably why I felt like I could just eat rice with these side dishes alone and be happy — truly home-cooked-style banchan! Best side dishes I've had at any restaurant I've visited so far! A place where you could eat well on banchan and rice alone!! ![The standout side dish, shrimp jang](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-13-1b6jk-966.webp) This shrimp jang (soy-marinated shrimp) is really delicious, make sure you try it! ![Gochujang jumulleok served on a griddle](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-14-1i4c2-966.webp) The gochujang jumulleok comes out on a griddle, along with a burner, so you cook it right at the table. ![Gochujang jumulleok cooking on the tabletop burner](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-15-jow1m-966.webp) Just a heads-up — rice has to be ordered separately! ![Wrapping the cooked jumulleok in a ssam wrap](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-16-1yp2k-966.webp) ![A finished bowl of rice and gochujang jumulleok](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes-17-1whg7-966.webp) Once the jumulleok was cooked, I tried wrapping it with the side dishes into a ssam (lettuce wrap), and the spicy-sweet sauce was really striking! I'd planned to save some jumulleok to make fried rice at the end, but instead I ended up polishing off the jumulleok and rice completely. Ah... I should have made the fried rice.... If you order it as fried rice, they give you oil and gim (dried seaweed) for free, so definitely try the fried rice version~~ ## Overall review Pyeongtaek Jumulleok Pyeongtaek Station Branch is a Baengnyeon Gagae located an 8-minute walk or 3-minute drive from Pyeongtaek Station. True to its 'century-old store' title, the old sign made an impression, while the tables inside were spacious and clean, making it comfortable to eat. I ordered the gochujang bulgogi, and the side dishes came out first. The handmade banchan — eggplant, baek-kimchi (white kimchi), cucumber muchim, shrimp jang, and more — were all delicious, good enough to eat with just rice. The gochujang bulgogi had an addictive spicy-sweet sauce, perfect for wrapping into ssam with the side dishes. Pyeongtaek Jumulleok was my favorite jumulleok place I've found near Pyeongtaek Station. If you're looking for a good restaurant near Pyeongtaek Station, Pyeongtaek Jumulleok could be a great choice! ## Pyeongtaek Jumulleok Pyeongtaek Station Branch info - Address: 52 Pyeongtaek 1-ro 9beon-gil, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - Hours: 07:00–21:00 - Break time: 15:00–17:00 - Last order: 20:00 ## Where it is - Pyeongtaek Jumulleok Pyeongtaek Station Branch (평택주물럭 평택역점) - 52 Pyeongtaek 1-ro 9beon-gil, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 평택시 평택1로9번길 52 평택주물럭 - 36.9945574, 127.0849991 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%8F%89%ED%83%9D%EC%A3%BC%EB%AC%BC%EB%9F%AD%20%ED%8F%89%ED%83%9D%EC%97%AD%EC%A0%90/@36.9945574,127.0849991,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@menu-in-hand/pyeongtaek-station-gochujang-jumulruk-side-dishes/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
