On a weekend lunch visit with a baby, the order was one kongguksu (chilled soybean noodle soup), one seafood kalguksu and 6 meat dumplings, and the staff brought out a baby chair plus a separate bowl of barley rice for the baby. Between the generous seafood, the deep, clean-tasting broth and the warm service, Baekcheongu Kalguksu made for a satisfying family meal. ## Good to know - **What we ordered**: 1 kongguksu (soybean noodle soup) + 1 seafood kalguksu + 6 meat dumplings - **Served with the meal**: Barley rice and side dishes such as yeolmu kimchi (young radish kimchi) on the first visit - **With a baby**: Baby chair provided; separate barley rice served for the baby - **Parking**: Roadside parking near the restaurant on weekend visits - **Good to know**: House-made noodles; the kimchi is said to be made in-house every day *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* ![First photo from the visit to Baekcheongu Kalguksu Dongbaek branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-01-j8kkm-900.webp) I was craving kalguksu (knife-cut noodle soup) so badly for weekend lunch that I went and checked this place out! I'd heard it's a seafood kalguksu place that's been loved by Dongbaek residents for a whopping 20 years, so I was curious^^ ![Exterior of Baekcheongu Kalguksu in Yongin Dongbaek](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-02-1csw5-900.webp) ![View around the entrance of Baekcheongu Kalguksu Dongbaek branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-03-4wck1-900.webp) Eating there in person, I understood exactly why it's packed every weekend haha. This is Baekcheongu Kalguksu Dongbaek branch :) Since it was the weekend, I parked on the street near the restaurant haha. ![Interior of Baekcheongu Kalguksu crowded with weekend lunch customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-04-17bvm-900.webp) ## Can you bring a baby? Baby chair and service at Baekcheongu Kalguksu Baekcheongu Kalguksu Dongbaek branch has baby chairs ready, so we could eat comfortably with our baby. There were a ton of other diners when we visited, but the staff were still super friendly, which gave a great first impression^^ ![Table set up with a baby at Baekcheongu Kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-05-1m0dq-900.webp) ## What we ordered: kongguksu, seafood kalguksu and 6 meat dumplings We ordered 1 kongguksu (chilled soybean noodle soup) + 1 seafood kalguksu + 6 meat dumplings! ![Complimentary barley rice and side dishes at Baekcheongu Kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-06-139eh-900.webp) ![Plate of barley rice with various side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-07-2c568-900.webp) When you visit for the first time, they bring out barley rice first, and they even gave a separate portion of barley rice for the baby to eat — I was touched all over again🥹 I mixed it with sesame oil, gochujang (red chili paste), and various side dishes, and it was so delicious too~ ![Barley rice mixed with sesame oil and gochujang](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-08-1ahm0-966.webp) The yeolmu kimchi (young radish kimchi) in particular was seriously the best... you can't resist the combo of barley rice and yeolmu kimchi haha. ![Yeolmu kimchi served alongside the barley rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-09-g77fo-900.webp) ## Seafood kalguksu: how big the portion is and how the broth tastes Baekcheongu's seafood kalguksu is technically one serving, but it felt like almost 1.5 servings. The portion here is genuinely huge haha. I was impressed from the very start ㅠㅠ ![A generously sized single serving of seafood kalguksu at Baekcheongu Kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-10-bpvx1-900.webp) ![Seafood kalguksu loaded with seafood](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-11-1bql6-900.webp) The seafood was loaded in without holding back too. I took one sip of the broth first and, wow... ![Scooping up the broth of the seafood kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-12-1q3vb-966.webp) I didn't realize the broth could taste this different from one kalguksu place to another! ![Close-up of the seafood kalguksu noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-13-xe2ox-900.webp) ![Full table setting with the kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-14-8r5h7-966.webp) ## What does the kongguksu at Baekcheongu Kalguksu taste like? The kongguksu I ordered as the main dish was also nutty and delicious~ My husband, who loves kongguksu, ate it happily and said it was good haha. ![Rich soy broth of the kongguksu at Baekcheongu Kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-15-qql9g-900.webp) The soy broth wasn't watery or bland at all — you could really taste the rich, nutty flavor of the soybeans. It was light but the beany nuttiness lingered subtly in my mouth~ At the same time it wasn't too heavy or chalky, so it went well with the noodles, and eating it cold made it even better! It was a kongguksu that brought out the beans' own nutty flavor without anything overpowering, which I personally found very satisfying haha. ![Lifting up a portion of kongguksu noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-16-1a3ew-676.webp) ## The 6 meat dumplings: wrapper and filling And now the meat dumplings I'd been most looking forward to! The wrapper was thin, which I liked right away, and when I looked inside, there was really a generous amount of meat packed in~ ![Cross-section of a meat dumpling from Baekcheongu Kalguksu showing the packed filling](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-17-afv7f-966.webp) The filling felt totally packed, so it was so good! Having a dumpling alongside each bite of kalguksu made for the best combo haha. ![Kalguksu served together with meat dumplings](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-18-hbwrh-900.webp) The kalguksu wasn't too salty or overpowering, but had a deep, refreshing flavor, so I kept scooping up more broth^^ ![Scooping up the broth of the seafood kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-19-q1fdo-900.webp) It's not for nothing that this place is called the go-to kalguksu spot in Giheung-gu, Yongin haha. And apparently Baekcheongu Kalguksu makes their noodles fresh in-house and their kimchi fresh every day too! Maybe that's why the noodles were so chewy and paired so well with the broth^^ ![Close-up of the house-made kalguksu noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-20-1d6bd-900.webp) ## Is Baekcheongu Kalguksu in Dongbaek worth a return family meal? This time I had both seafood kalguksu and kongguksu, and everything was so good that I've already decided what to order next time haha. Best of all, it was totally fine to bring the baby along! With the baby chair, the barley rice they set aside, and the friendly staff, it was a satisfying family meal~ ![Kalguksu and dumplings set out for a family meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-21-12g1i-900.webp) We went for weekend lunch and it was so packed I wondered if this place was really that famous — but as soon as I finished eating and walked out, I got it immediately haha. Ah, there's a reason places get this crowded haha. ![Table at Baekcheongu Kalguksu after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-22-1oduv-900.webp) Now I understand why Dongbaek residents have loved this place for 20 years~ Kalguksu loaded with seafood, a deep and refreshing broth, plus house-made noodles and kimchi! ![Signature seafood kalguksu photo at Baekcheongu Kalguksu Dongbaek branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-23-1lcoj-1200.webp) ![Full spread of dishes at Baekcheongu Kalguksu Dongbaek branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair-24-1413s-900.webp) I'd recommend this to anyone looking for kalguksu in Yongin Dongbaek, or a good restaurant near Dongbaek E-mart! I'm definitely going back haha. ## Where it is - Baekcheongu Kalguksu Yongin Dongbaek Branch (백청우칼국수 용인동백점) - 19 Pyeongchon2-ro 1beon-gil, Giheung-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, 1st floor - 경기도 용인시 기흥구 평촌2로1번길 19 1층 - 37.280486, 127.1547478 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B0%B1%EC%B2%AD%EC%9A%B0%EC%B9%BC%EA%B5%AD%EC%88%98%20%EC%9A%A9%EC%9D%B8%EB%8F%99%EB%B0%B1%EC%A0%90/@37.280486,127.1547478,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@opening-the-menu-2/baekcheongwoo-kalguksu-dongbaek-baby-chair/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
