There's also floor seating in addition to regular tables, so you can spread out. ![Self-serve bar with kimchi and sauces](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-10-9bd4o-900.webp) ## Menu and prices at Jedam Kalguksu Hyangnam Branch ![Menu board at Jedam Kalguksu Hyangnam Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-11-3fc9e-900.webp) ![Menu listing seafood kalguksu and set meals](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-12-67ez2-900.webp) ## Seafood kalguksu for 15,000 won: the clear broth, tasted ![Ordered seafood kalguksu with a side of dumplings](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-13-iowkn-900.webp) At 'Jedam Kalguksu Hyangnam Branch' you can get seafood kalguksu, seafood sujebi (hand-torn dough soup), or clam kalguksu. I ordered the signature seafood kalguksu, packed with fresh seafood, plus a side order of hot dumplings. There are also set menus available. ![Pot of clear-broth seafood kalguksu, full spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-14-e7wu2-900.webp) At 'Jedam Kalguksu' you can choose between a clear, refreshing broth or a spicy, hot one, depending on your taste — I really liked having that option. I went with the clear broth. First, a pot arrives piled high with generous amounts of squid, webfoot octopus, shrimp, clams, and more assorted seafood. The visual alone, so fresh-looking, made me gasp out loud ㅠㅠㅠㅠ ![Pot filled with squid and clams](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-15-hyb5c-900.webp) ![Seafood kalguksu broth simmering](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-16-1bdx9-900.webp) ### Seafood first, noodles later: how to eat it in order With seafood kalguksu, the noodles don't come out right away — you boil and eat the fresh seafood first, then ask the staff for the noodles, which simmer for another 3–4 minutes. They snip the squid and octopus into bite-sized pieces with scissors, and with the flame turned low, dipping each piece into chojang (vinegar-chili sauce) or wasabi bursts the ocean flavor right into your mouth. 🥹👍 There were really so many clams. ![Squid and octopus cut with scissors](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-17-ybn7i-900.webp) ![Fresh seafood dipped in chojang sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-18-k983u-900.webp) There was so much fresh seafood that picking and choosing what to eat was half the fun. Seriously, so much of it — hard to believe it's only ₩15,000. If this place were near my house, I'd want to come every day. ### Hand-pulled noodles in 4 minutes, plus free broth refills Once you've finished all the seafood at 'Jedam Kalguksu Hyangnam Branch,' the friendly owner adds the kalguksu noodles for you. The noodles are hand-pulled in-house. When the broth starts to boil and looks like it might bubble over, the owner tops it up with more broth. You simmer it for about 4 more minutes — the noodles are chewy, clean-tasting, and slide right down. Paired with kimchi, it just keeps going in. The noodle texture is soft and pillowy. With all that seafood in it, the broth is genuinely refreshing — not artificial at all, with a deep, rich seafood flavor that really opens everything up inside!!!! ![Hand-pulled kalguksu noodles simmered in the leftover broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-19-3fqsf-900.webp) ![Kalguksu noodles lifted out of the broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-20-15619-900.webp) ## Steamed dumplings on the side, then dumpling soup in the leftover broth ### Is Jedam Kalguksu worth it for lunch in Hyangnam? The side dish of dumplings came out too. There are two kinds — kimchi dumplings and meat dumplings. Fresh out of the kitchen, they arrive steaming from the steamer basket, and even just visually, packed full of meat filling, they looked incredibly appetizing. ![Kimchi and meat dumplings served in a steamer](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-21-dvlvq-900.webp) ![Cross-section of a fully packed steamed dumpling](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-22-146le-900.webp) The dumpling skin was so thin and chewy... the moment you bite in, the juices spread all through your mouth — the texture was seriously wonderful. Moist and clean-tasting, the kind you keep reaching for. After finishing all the seafood, you can drop the chewy hand-kneaded kalguksu noodles made in-house into the leftover broth and simmer them, and if you add the hot dumplings into the broth too, you get dumpling soup. The owner was also incredibly friendly. 🫰🫰🫰🫰🫰 Maybe because this place has been steadily loved in the Hyangnam area for over 11 years, nothing was lacking — from the food to the service — and I left having eaten well and feeling completely satisfied the whole time. 💖 ![Seafood kalguksu table after the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-23-ig5gv-900.webp) ![Kalguksu and kimchi at Jedam Kalguksu Hyangnam Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch-24-ubks9-900.webp) Honestly, the kimchi is delicious, the kalguksu is delicious — every single item on the menu is delicious. ## Where it is - Jedam Kalguksu Hyangnam Branch (제담칼국수 향남점) - 평6길 10 2층, Hyangnam-eup, Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 화성시 만세구 향남읍 평6길 10 2층 - 37.1273291, 126.9065782 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%A0%9C%EB%8B%B4%EC%B9%BC%EA%B5%AD%EC%88%98%20%ED%96%A5%EB%82%A8%EC%A0%90/@37.1273291,126.9065782,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@roadside-lunches-2/jedam-kalguksu-hyangnam-seafood-lunch/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
