The set is generous enough at Jju Baksa Magok Branch to suit both a group dinner and a date. ## Good to know - **Location**: 1F, Unit 130, Daebang DMC City 2 Officetel, 23 Magokdong-ro 10-gil, Gangseo-gu, Seoul - **Getting there**: About a 3-minute walk from Exit 8, Yangcheon Hyanggyo Station (Line 9) - **Hours**: Daily, 11:00 AM – 1:00 AM - **Seating**: Outdoor terrace seating with folding doors - **Parking**: Daebang M City 2, free for 2 hours 30 minutes - **Ordered on this visit**: Drink set 38,000 won (meat changed to jjuusam beef brisket, medium spice, crab egg custard, zero cola) - **Lunch special**: 10,000 won / 11:00 AM–3:00 PM / minimum 2 people - **Extra beef brisket (180 g)**: 9,000 won - **Price reference**: ₩38,000 ≈ $27.5 (2026-09-20) *as written by the visitor on Sep 18, 2026* Today I'm bringing you a review of Jju Baksa Magok Branch, a great spot near Yangcheon Hyanggyo Station for when you're craving that combo of spicy webfoot octopus and savory grilled meat!

And since it's open until 1 AM, there are also drinking-snack items like octopus ramyeon and fish cake soup for people coming in for a second or third round, haha. That day, we ordered the generously composed drink set and changed the meat to jjuusam (beef brisket). For spice we went medium — a bit spicier than Shin Ramyun — with zero-sugar cola to drink, and the service menu item we chose was the moist crab egg custard! That comes to ₩38,000. ![Complimentary corn butter served at the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-10-v5olp-900.webp) Corn butter comes out free. ![Crab egg custard chosen as the set's service dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-11-18lxk-900.webp) This is the crab egg custard we got as our service item. It reminded me of a crab omelet I once had at a fusion Japanese restaurant. So fluffy! ![A fluffy bowl of crab egg custard](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-12-16np4-900.webp) ## Hot plate jjuusam cooked at the table by the staff 🐙 Here's the hot plate jjuusam. Fresh rolled beef brisket comes out piled up generously like a mountain. ![Hot plate jjuusam piled high with beef brisket](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-13-xthaf-900.webp) There were cooking instructions written out, but a staff member actually cooked it for us bb — so convenient, haha. ![Cooking instructions posted on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-14-16qqm-900.webp) Nice touch adding bean sprouts too bb ![Hot plate jjuusam being cooked with bean sprouts added](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-15-1e4t5-900.webp) Sizzling away on the hot plate with the octopus, crunchy bean sprouts, and rice cake, the rich sweet-and-spicy sauce soaks perfectly into everything. The medium spice level was a pleasantly tingling kind of spicy, pairing perfectly with the rich, savory beef brisket. ![Octopus and beef brisket cooked in medium-spice sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-16-39cbb-900.webp) ![Close-up of hot plate jjuusam cooked with rice cake](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-17-1udp4-900.webp) ### Self-made rice balls and ssam wraps at Jju Baksa The self-made rice ball included in the set is loaded with seaweed flakes and finely chopped pickled radish, giving it an appealing savory, crunchy texture. ![Self-made rice ball with seaweed flakes and pickled radish](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-18-1e2ms-900.webp) ![Round self-made rice ball formed by hand](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-19-rkd23-900.webp) Placing the jjuusam on a fragrant perilla leaf, then topping it with rice ball and popping flying fish roe for a ssam (wrap), fills your mouth with layers of flavor 🤍 ![Perilla leaf ssam topped with jjuusam and flying fish roe](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-20-qmohi-1200.webp) Right as the spice starts kicking in, a spoonful of the soft crab egg custard we chose as our service dish cools everything down comfortingly. Finishing it off with the fizzy zero-sugar cola made for a flawless meal. The portion was just right, but we still ended up adding extra beef brisket into the leftover sauce. ![Extra beef brisket added to the leftover sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-21-w189u-900.webp) Extra beef brisket serving — pretty huge portion, right? ![Hot plate piled high with extra beef brisket](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-22-1btxf-900.webp) They said they'd add more sauce if we ran out, but ours was just the right amount. ![Finished hot plate jjuusam cooked in the sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam-23-10c02-900.webp) ## Final verdict: who will enjoy Jju Baksa Magok Branch? I'd recommend this to anyone near Yangcheon Hyanggyo Station looking for a filling, good-value hot plate octopus meal. The set menus are so generously composed that they work great for a solid meal, a drinking session with friends, or even a date-night course. ## Where it is - Jju Baksa Magok Branch (쭈박사 마곡점) - 1F, Unit 130, Daebang DMC City 2 Officetel, 23 Magokdong-ro 10-gil, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강서구 마곡동로10길 23 대방디엠시티2차오피스텔 1층 130호 쭈박사 마곡점 - 37.5689322, 126.8391317 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%AD%88%EB%B0%95%EC%82%AC%20%EB%A7%88%EA%B3%A1%EC%A0%90/@37.5689322,126.8391317,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@midnight-bar-stool/jjubaksa-magok-weekend-opening-jjuusam/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
