With a 6pm Friday booking, the writer ordered Jeju gamaegisal (pork skirt meat) 200g for ₩24,000, hangjeongsal (pork jowl) 200g for ₩26,000, bibim hoe-naengmyeon (spicy cold noodles with raw fish) and a non-alcoholic Cass, and the staff grilled everything in order, so the meal took just 30 minutes. Nopo Dwaeji Aewol is a good choice for an easy black pork dinner in Gwakji or Aewol. ## Good to know - **Opening hours**: Daily 11:00–23:00 (last order 22:00); lunch specials 11:00–14:00 - **Parking**: Private parking behind and beside the building - **Aged black pork geun-gogi 600g (neck + belly)**: ₩72,000 - **Jeju hangjeongsal (pork jowl) 200g**: ₩24,000 - **Jeju gamaegisal (pork skirt meat) 200g**: ₩26,000 - **Bibim hoe-naengmyeon (spicy cold noodles with raw fish)**: ₩8,000 - **Non-alcoholic Cass beer**: ₩4,000 - **Reservations**: Book on Catch Table, or on Naver up to one day ahead - **Public transport**: Bus 202 to the Gwakji Mouumul stop - **Review event**: Free stew or cold noodles for leaving a review - **Price reference**: ₩24,000 ≈ $17.5 · ₩26,000 ≈ $19 · ₩72,000 ≈ $53 (2026-09-29) *as written by the visitor on Aug 9, 2026* ![Exterior and signboard of Nopo Dwaeji Aewol](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-01-10rq5-1200.webp) Today I went to a black pork favorite near Gwakji Beach — Nopo Dwaeji Aewol! You've got to eat black pork when you're in Jeju haha. Booked for 6pm on a Friday. The signboard presence alone is no joke! ![Large signboard of Nopo Dwaeji Aewol visible from the road](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-02-o1s2f-900.webp) This huge sign I always saw driving past! ![A pair of black pig statues in front of the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-03-a8aue-900.webp) A cute pair of black pig statues out front, ready to be eaten deliciously~~~~ (a bit cruel maybe lol) ## Nopo Dwaeji Aewol: hours, parking, and basic prices > 📍Hours: Daily 11:00 – 23:00 (last order 22:00) / lunch special 11:00 – 14:00 > 📍Parking: Dedicated parking spaces behind and beside the building > 📍Main menu: Aged black pork geun-gogi 600g (neck + belly) ₩72,000 / Jeju hangjeong-sal 200g ₩24,000 / Jeju gamari-sal 200g ₩26,000 > 📍You can book on Catch Table! ![Nopo Dwaeji Aewol's location at the entrance to Gwakji Beach](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-04-1fqj1-900.webp) It's right at the entrance to Gwakji Beach. Take bus 202 and get off at the 'Gwakji Mouumul' stop — it's right there!! ## What's the vibe like at 6pm on a Friday? The interior isn't huge, but it's fairly spacious — and it was packed. ![Interior of Nopo Dwaeji Aewol packed with customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-05-tjha8-900.webp) ![Wide view of the spacious dining hall tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-06-e8i0q-900.webp) Looked like a lot of families! ![Seating area with many family customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-07-6lg4e-900.webp) ![View of one side of the restaurant interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-08-1xu5s-900.webp) On one side of the restaurant you can see meat aging. ![Pre-searing station and aging black pork meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-09-1t7t8-900.webp) Do they pre-sear the samgyeopsal and mok-sal (pork neck)?? There's a pre-searing station here too! ## Menu and order — hangjeong-sal and gamari-sal, 200g each instead of geun-gogi ![Nopo Dwaeji Aewol's menu board with prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-10-jfcef-900.webp) The menu's mains were black pork geun-gogi (aged belly + neck), hangjeong-sal, and gamari-sal — the most basic geun-gogi comes in a fixed 600g portion. What we ordered: > Jeju gamari-sal 200g ₩24,000 > Hangjeong-sal 200g ₩26,000 > Bibim hoe-naengmyeon ₩8,000 > Non-alcoholic Cass ₩4,000 I did want the black pork belly and neck... but 600g felt like it'd be too much, so we picked gamari-sal and hangjeong-sal since you can order them 200g at a time! Still a little disappointed though ㅠㅠ ![Sign about the free jjigae or cold noodles review event](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-11-1s0kf-900.webp) ** If you do the review event, they give you free jjigae or naengmyeon — grab it, grab it ## Side dishes and the non-alcoholic beer Standard sides: water kimchi, salted lettuce, pickled radish, marinated chili peppers, shredded radish? Pretty neat and tidy, isn't it? Clean (moms would love this). Every single side dish was good. ![Basic side dishes including water kimchi and pickled radish](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-12-135oi-900.webp) I really liked that water kimchi~ full of savory umami flavor! ![A glass of non-alcoholic Cass](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-13-16m66-900.webp) Such a genius touch here — they have non-alcoholic beer. I gasped looking at the menu haha. Alcohol felt heavy, but I still wanted a cold beer, so — non-alcoholic it is! ## Staff grill the hangjeong-sal and gamari-sal in order Good thing number two: the staff grill it for you. So, so convenient, and it tastes better when a 'pro' (?) grills it too. They grill everything you ordered in order and then leave. First up, the gleaming hangjeong-sal. ![Jeju hangjeong-sal grilling on the pan](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-14-v1940-900.webp) ![Staff member grilling the hangjeong-sal on the pan](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-15-1scpv-900.webp) Ohhh meat, hurry up and cook, come into my mouth. They cooked the gamari-sal a bit less because it gets tough if overcooked — that's why the hangjeong-sal went first! The meat looks so glossy, ugh, I'm drooling just thinking about it again. ![Fully cooked hangjeong-sal and gamari-sal](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-16-yk703-900.webp) ![Chewy grilled gamari-sal](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-17-oorh2-900.webp) The hangjeong-sal is rich and nutty with all that fat, and the gamari-sal is a bit sweet and chewy — maybe it's seasoned? Both were so good, but between the two I vote hangjeong-sal!!!!! It was genuinely delicious ㅠㅠ Now I'm curious about the samgyeopsal and mok-sal too... a bit of regret over the menu choice... ![Bibim hoe-naengmyeon served alongside the meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-18-mvhjy-900.webp) ![Close-up of the cold noodles with sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-19-16d2l-900.webp) ## Bibim hoe-naengmyeon for ₩8,000, alongside the meat Cold noodles with raw fish to go with the meat!!! How could you not eat naengmyeon in this weather? This place is great not just with the meat but the side dishes and sauce too, all done well. That sauce is packed with umami!!!!!! Goes so well with the raw fish, I scraped the bowl clean. So good. ![A bite of black pork dipped in sesame oil sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-20-j3pvy-900.webp) ![Plate combining meat and cold noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-21-1vfcw-900.webp) ![Grilled black pork served with lettuce wraps](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-22-1afu0-900.webp) (Staff recommended dipping it in the sesame oil sauce, it's even better) You should all give it a try too — wink. I mean, we ate so happily that we walked in at 6:10 and walked out at 6:40 haha. (A whole meat restaurant meal in 30 minutes?) ![Wait situation outside the restaurant after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation-23-1yyyv-900.webp) ## How long is the wait on a Friday evening? After eating happily and heading out, there was already a wait forming. 30 minutes of waiting… Besides Catch Table, you can also book on Naver up to a day ahead, so booking in advance is a good idea too 😉😉 If you're staying near Aewol or Gwakji Beach, you could put your name down for the wait and rest at your accommodation before coming back! Or since it's about a 20-minute walk from Gwakji to Handam, you could go for a seaside stroll while you wait too. A walk along the beach after the meal is also recommended, to help digest~~~ ## Final verdict > A really good choice if you want to enjoy black pork easily near Gwakji or Aewol 👍👍👍 Grab that sunset-over-the-beach romance after dinner too ## Where it is - Nopo Dwaeji Aewol (노포돼지 애월) - 5-1 Gwakji9-gil, Aewol-eup, Jeju-si, Jeju-do, South Korea (1st floor, unit 202) - 제주특별자치도 제주시 애월읍 곽지9길 5-1 1동202호 (1층2호) - 33.4519345, 126.3085923 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%85%B8%ED%8F%AC%EB%8F%BC%EC%A7%80%20%EC%95%A0%EC%9B%94/@33.4519345,126.3085923,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@place-for-supper/nopo-pork-aewol-friday-dinner-reservation/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
