## In short

Umi Hoegwan Jonggak Main Branch is a raw beef bar tucked in the alley behind Bosingak, near exit 4 of Jonggak Station in Jongno, Seoul. A friend just back in Korea after six months ordered a half-and-half plate of mungtigi (fresh raw beef) and chadolbagi (raw brisket) sashimi, dipped in sesame oil sauce and mungtigi sauce with egg yolk and pear. With a wide traditional liquor lineup and corkage at ₩20,000 per bottle, it's a great spot to pair raw beef with drinks.

*as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026*

Lately a lot of friends who've been living abroad have been coming back to Korea, so I've had a bunch of long-overdue meetups. The friend I met today was coming back to Korea for the first time in six months, so I felt like we had to eat some really good Korean food..!

So while thinking about what to eat, we decided on mungtigi (fresh raw beef), which we both love. There's a mungtigi spot near Jonggak Station that never disappoints, so this time I decided to bring my friend along. So let's get into the story of eating delicious mungtigi and chadolbagi sashimi at Umi Hoegwan, a Cheonggyecheon bar, haha.

We made a Naver Reservation and were shown to our reserved table. Every time I come here I think the same thing — it's such a popular spot that it's almost always full before 7pm, haha. Lots of company dinners too, tons of customers. Shall we look at the menu and prices?

## Traditional liquor lineup and corkage

Besides the usual soju and beer, they have a really wide lineup of traditional Korean liquors, which seems perfect for pairing something tasty and clean with mungtigi. Corkage is also available, so you can bring your own wine to have with raw beef! Corkage costs ₩20,000 per bottle. Just so you know~

## The mungtigi + chadolbagi half-and-half platter

My friend, who had never tried chadolbagi sashimi before, said she wanted to try it, so we ordered the mungtigi + chadolbagi half-and-half platter!

![Mungtigi and chadolbagi sashimi arranged half-and-half](https://img.superchart.com/images/umi-hoegwan-jonggak-mungtigi-chadolbagi/umi-hoegwan-jonggak-mungtigi-chadolbagi-17-d7scs-900.webp)

The color looks really good, right? You can almost feel the freshness through the photo, haha.

With the egg yolk, pear, radish sprouts, gamtae (seaweed) and wasabi that came alongside, it seemed like it would also be great eaten yukhoe-style~

## How we ate it: sesame oil sauce vs. mungtigi sauce

The basic condiments provided are sesame oil sauce and mungtigi sauce. If you finish them, refills are available!!

Personally, I found it delicious dipped in the mungtigi sauce!

![Mungtigi wrapped in pear with egg yolk](https://img.superchart.com/images/umi-hoegwan-jonggak-mungtigi-chadolbagi/umi-hoegwan-jonggak-mungtigi-chadolbagi-23-1b6rq-900.webp)

If you dip a piece in sesame oil sauce, wrap it around a slice of pear, then dip it in egg yolk, you get something close to a yukhoe feel, haha.

The fattier chadolbagi cut went really well with the sesame oil sauce too! We had a great meal of fresh, delicious mungtigi and chadolbagi raw beef at Umi Hoegwan, our go-to Cheonggyecheon bar!
