I chose the refreshing, spicy seafood hot pot over sea urchin seaweed soup, then enjoyed braised cutlassfish, crispy tilefish, soy-marinated crab, and rice-pot scorched rice. A hearty, refreshing meal for an eastern Jeju trip. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 08:00–21:30 - **Parking**: Parking is available behind the building; roadside parking in front is allowed in the evening. - **A Set includes**: Braised cutlassfish, grilled tilefish, glutinous rice-pot rice, soy-marinated crab, and seafood hot pot - **Soup choice**: Choose between seafood hot pot and sea urchin seaweed soup - **Seating**: A relatively small restaurant with one dining hall - **Location**: About a 5–10 minute drive from Seongsan Ilchulbong *as written by the visitor on Sep 9, 2026* On this Jeju trip, I passed through the Seongsan area again and found myself craving braised cutlassfish, so there was one place I went back to. It was Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon Seongsan Ilchulbong Branch (제주로운청해원 성산일출봉점), a Jeju restaurant specializing in braised cutlassfish. ![Exterior of Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon Seongsan Ilchulbong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-01-jmcpb-900.webp) ## Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon near Seongsan Ilchulbong: location and parking ![Location of Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon near Seongsan Ilchulbong](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-02-cy6f0-900.webp) ![Scenery around the restaurant near Seongsan attractions](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-03-zi5lo-900.webp) This Jeju braised-cutlassfish specialist is only about a 5–10 minute drive from Seongsan Ilchulbong, so it was in a great spot to stop for a meal while sightseeing around Seongsan. Aqua Planet Jeju and Phoenix Island are nearby too, so it would be a nice stop if you are planning a trip around this area. I had a quick look around before eating, and Sinyang Seopjikoji Beach is nearby as well—perfect for getting a little fresh air. ![Parking lot behind the restaurant building](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-04-7zq5q-900.webp) There is a parking lot behind the restaurant building, so this Jeju braised-cutlassfish restaurant was convenient to visit by car. In the evening, you can also simply park along the road in front of the restaurant. ## Restaurant atmosphere and reservations ![Dining hall interior at Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-05-1u4ec-900.webp) ![Restaurant interior with one dining hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-06-19sj1-900.webp) ![Seating at Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-07-134zq-900.webp) The restaurant is not especially large and has one dining hall. As a place known by word of mouth for Jeju braised cutlassfish, it had more guests than I expected, so I recommend making a Naver reservation before visiting. ## Braised cutlassfish and seafood hot pot A Set Braised cutlassfish is one of those dishes you end up having at least once when you come to Jeju, right? Rather than having braised cutlassfish on its own, this Jeju specialist offers sets where you can try several Jeju foods together, which made it great for two people wanting a little bit of everything. ![Braised cutlassfish set table spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-08-ix7t1-900.webp) ![Set composed of several Jeju dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-09-1b5g9-900.webp) The A Set we ordered included braised cutlassfish, grilled tilefish, glutinous rice-pot rice, soy-marinated crab, and seafood hot pot. ![Braised cutlassfish and grilled tilefish A Set](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-10-1nvr3-900.webp) For the soup, you choose between seafood hot pot and sea urchin seaweed soup. I had enjoyed the sea urchin seaweed soup last time, but this time I chose the refreshing, pleasantly spicy seafood hot pot.^^ A whole braised cutlassfish in Jeju is generous, of course, but it can sometimes be quite a lot for two people. That is why I actually liked this set: we could enjoy the braised cutlassfish while also having grilled tilefish and soy-marinated crab. ![Braised cutlassfish and grilled tilefish set components](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-11-1lhob-1200.webp) ### Thick-cut braised cutlassfish and glutinous rice-pot rice I started with the braised cutlassfish, which came out first. The cutlassfish pieces were thick, so there was more than I expected, and the seasoning was spicy with just the right balance of sweetness and saltiness—really good with the glutinous rice-pot rice. ![Braised cutlassfish with thick pieces of fish](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-12-tk93n-900.webp) ![Braised cutlassfish eaten with glutinous rice-pot rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-13-1fvnt-900.webp) ![Braised cutlassfish with seasoning and radish](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-14-18rdv-900.webp) Especially when I picked the fish off the bone and placed a little seasoning over the rice, one spoonful of rice disappeared in no time, haha. There was plenty of radish layered underneath too, so it was truly generous. It was for two people, but there was enough for three. ![Generous portion of braised cutlassfish](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-15-1bmr8-900.webp) They say they use only wild-caught Jeju cutlassfish~~!! And the crispy grilled tilefish was just as memorable as the braised cutlassfish in the A Set. ### Crispy grilled tilefish, one fish per person ![Crispy grilled tilefish](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-16-ztetu-900.webp) ![One grilled tilefish served per person](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-17-dylrb-900.webp) A large tilefish came out for each person. It was more of a fried style than ordinary grilled fish, making it crispy and savory. ![Soy-marinated crab with spicy chili peppers](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-18-1oktt-900.webp) The soy-marinated crab was a little salty for my taste, but it was well seasoned when eaten with rice. Although it was soy-marinated crab, it had lots of chili peppers in it, so it was spicy too. It had a nice kick. ![Seafood hot pot with shrimp and crab](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-19-c95yl-900.webp) ![Seafood hot pot generously filled with seafood](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-20-1d5ke-900.webp) ![Seafood hot pot with refreshing broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-21-6tf1c-900.webp) ### Refreshing, savory seafood hot pot The seafood hot pot was packed with seafood including shrimp, crab, and mussels, so the broth was wonderfully refreshing. At the same time, it had the savory depth of doenjang (fermented soybean paste), making for a clean, satisfying meal. ![Seafood hot pot with the flavor of fermented soybean paste](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-22-13qeu-900.webp) ![Side dishes served with seafood hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-23-4yulv-900.webp) I was so busy enjoying the delicious braised cutlassfish that I could not eat many of the other side dishes, but those were served neatly as well. ![Glutinous rice-pot rice finished as scorched rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon-24-1d01r-900.webp) Finally, since the rice came in a pot, I was able to make nurungji (scorched rice) and finish the meal on a satisfying note, haha. It was a place for a neat, refreshing, and hearty Korean meal. Above all, I think its biggest appeal was being able to have braised cutlassfish and grilled tilefish at once. If you are traveling around eastern Jeju, I hope you stop by~~!! ## Where it is - Jejurowoon Cheonghaewon Seongsan Ilchulbong Branch (제주로운청해원 성산일출봉점) (제주로운청해원 성산일출봉점) - 101 Sinyang-ro, Seongsan-eup, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, South Korea - 제주특별자치도 서귀포시 성산읍 신양로 101 1층 제주로운청해원 성산일출봉점 - 33.4366855, 126.9206785 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%A0%9C%EC%A3%BC%EB%A1%9C%EC%9A%B4%EC%B2%AD%ED%95%B4%EC%9B%90%20%EC%84%B1%EC%82%B0%EC%9D%BC%EC%B6%9C%EB%B4%89%EC%A0%90/@33.4366855,126.9206785,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@pull-up-chair-5/seongsan-seafood-stew-cheonghaewon/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
