It is operated as a direct branch in Gwacheon, and since it opened in March, it seems to have settled in nicely now haha;; ## A sepia-toned atmosphere and self-serve side-dish bar The interior had a slightly unusual, panoramic-multiplex sort of atmosphere?? The lighting was soft rather than too strong, so it felt comfortable. If it had been full color, it might have been a little harder on the eyes, but this sepia tone was easy on them, which was nice haha. It seemed to show how Haenon Miyeok is made and where it comes from~ ![Sepia-toned interior of Haenon Miyeok](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-04-ve3nn-966.webp) ![Restaurant decoration explaining how Haenon Miyeok is made](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-05-1lrch-966.webp) ![Haenon Miyeok interior with soft lighting](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-06-e4k98-966.webp) Personally, I like a self-serve bar at a good Korean restaurant in Gwacheon. I also liked that it was not packed with side dishes just to increase the number; they had only sides that went deliciously with seaweed soup. It is nice when there are lots of choices, but it feels wasteful when food gets thrown away, and I end up eating only what I like anyway, so too much can feel a little overwhelming ㅠㅠ ## Ordering beef and flounder seaweed soup sets > Flounder and beef seaweed soup ordered! ![Order for flounder and beef seaweed soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-07-1xaum-966.webp) The menu made me realize all over again that there could be this many kinds of seaweed soup in Gwacheon. ![Variety of dishes on the Haenon Miyeok menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-08-boecn-966.webp) ![Haenon Miyeok seaweed soup menu selection](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-09-qv5q3-966.webp) Usually I have beef seaweed soup, and the most adventurous I had gotten was adding clams, but there were more than 10 kinds of seaweed soup here. Still, we ordered two set meals: my favorite beef seaweed soup and flounder seaweed soup. ![Beef and flounder seaweed soup set meals](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-10-1h9iq-966.webp) Since we ordered the seaweed soup sets, each came with a whole spicy seasoned flounder, and the side dishes were served in elegant glass bowls, making everything feel even more thoughtfully prepared. ![Spicy seasoned flounder and set-meal side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-11-epnsw-966.webp) The side dishes were not overly seasoned, so they were really good alongside the seaweed soup. ![Side dishes and kimchi served with seaweed soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-12-lj8j8-966.webp) The kimchi in particular was tasty, so I refilled it with japchae (stir-fried glass noodles) about twice more! ![Kimchi and japchae at the self-serve side-dish bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-13-12oek-966.webp) The cockle muchim (spicy-sweet seasoned cockles) was addictive too, so I went back for another helping of that as well haha. ![Spicy-sweet seasoned cockle side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-14-1rpxm-1200.webp) ## Deep, rich beef seaweed soup Our beef and flounder seaweed soups arrived! With a whole spread laid out so generously, it really felt like we had come to a great Korean restaurant in Gwacheon. ![A generously laid-out seaweed soup meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-15-sfwh5-966.webp) This is the beef seaweed soup I ordered in Gwacheon. The broth looks wonderfully deep and rich, right?? ![Deep, rich beef seaweed soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-16-azbn3-966.webp) They do not simply ladle out soup that has already been simmered at the restaurant; they make it once the order comes in, so that seemed like no ordinary amount of care either ;; ![Beef seaweed soup made after ordering](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-17-1owcm-966.webp) ![Seaweed soup full of beef and ingredients](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-18-csdvw-966.webp) With rich broth, generous ingredients, and loads of beef, just drinking down one bowl of seaweed soup left me completely full. ![A bowl filled with beef seaweed soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-19-1y2n4-966.webp) ## Refreshing flounder seaweed soup and free extra rice My wife kept eating the flounder seaweed soup she ordered, saying it was very tasty too. ![A bowl of flounder seaweed soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-20-kvctl-966.webp) ![The flounder seaweed soup ordered by my wife](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-21-1q3us-966.webp) She loves seafood, and the cool, refreshing seafood flavor was lovely with flounder in the rich seaweed broth. ![Refreshing seaweed soup with flounder](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-22-1hd27-966.webp) When you have no appetite, mixing a bowl of rice into seaweed soup and taking a spoonful with nicely fermented kimchi makes finishing a whole earthenware bowl happen in no time. ![Seaweed soup eaten with kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-23-1jq8b-966.webp) It is good enough to eat every day—and is seaweed bad for you?? Absolutely not. It clears the blood and helps with dieting and gut health, so it is fine to eat every day haha. If you have a big appetite, extra bowls of rice are free during your meal. Sipping the broth with rice, we polished off two bowls in no time >_< ![Cars parked outside the restaurant after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non-24-1r881-966.webp) After visiting this great Gwacheon lunch spot, the parking area outside was packed with cars. Going right when they opened was a genius move ^^ ## Where it is - Haenon Miyeok Gwacheon Direct Branch (해논미역 과천직영점) (해논미역 과천직영점) - 67 Araetbaeraengi-ro, 1F, Gwacheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (경기도 과천시 아랫배랭이로 67 1층) - 경기도 과천시 아랫배랭이로 67 1층 - 37.42472, 126.9994982 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%95%B4%EB%85%BC%EB%AF%B8%EC%97%AD%20%EA%B3%BC%EC%B2%9C%EC%A7%81%EC%98%81%EC%A0%90/@37.42472,126.9994982,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@pleated-skirt/gwacheon-seaweed-soup-beef-he-non/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
