Yubok Kalguksu Yongin Korean Folk Village Branch has a large parking area in front and a very spacious interior with plenty of seats. You can enjoy clean, tasty seafood kalguksu in a comfortable setting, and if you order the set menu, you get kalguksu plus spicy stir-fried jjukkumi (baby octopus) and barley rice — the combo was amazing. Especially since the broth is made from pufferfish, the soup flavor is out of this world. ![Spacious dining hall with plenty of seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu-02-su3oi-900.webp) ## Pufferfish seafood kalguksu set at 15,000 won per person, ordered for two Order Yubok Kalguksu's signature pufferfish seafood kalguksu set (₩15,000 per person) and you get pufferfish-broth seafood kalguksu along with smoky stir-fried jjukkumi and barley rice — a really satisfying, delicious full spread! So I ordered two servings of the pufferfish seafood kalguksu set. The price felt very reasonable and great value. I heard the jjukkumi seafood chive pancake side dish is also good, but the portion was too much to finish this time, so I couldn't order it... definitely next time. ![Menu board listing the pufferfish seafood kalguksu set](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu-03-25d9b-900.webp) ![Yubok Kalguksu menu board with prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu-04-1v5ct-900.webp) ## Is Yubok Kalguksu good with kids?

This was truly a specialty within a specialty. Usually you just get seafood kalguksu, but here you also get this delicious, spicy jjukkumi, so you can enjoy spicy jjukkumi barley bibimbap and then the refreshing broth kalguksu too — I was very satisfied. ![Smoky stir-fried jjukkumi with a bowl of barley rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu-08-1czm4-900.webp) Doesn't it look amazing? The spicy, tangy stir-fried jjukkumi is totally addictive, and mixed into barley bibimbap it's so good that the whole bowl disappears in no time. ![Jjukkumi barley bibimbap mixed together](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu-09-17m7l-900.webp) ## Clams, sea squirt and oysters in pufferfish broth: the kalguksu itself Finally, the pufferfish seafood kalguksu, Yubok Kalguksu's signature dish, arrived haha. True to seafood kalguksu form, it comes packed with fresh seafood for a refreshing broth. The base broth is pufferfish, and clams, sea squirt, and oysters are added and simmered in, so you get genuine seafood kalguksu — I loved that. ![Pot of pufferfish seafood kalguksu piled with seafood](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu-10-vuhg0-900.webp) And at a kalguksu place, the kimchi absolutely has to be good — the fresh geotjeori (unfermented cabbage kimchi) that goes with the hot, refreshing kalguksu was also a real treat haha. ![Fresh geotjeori kimchi served with the kalguksu](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu-11-ag5g8-900.webp) I loaded up the clear, deep, refreshing pufferfish broth with plenty of sea squirt and clams and let it boil away haha. ![Pufferfish broth kalguksu boiling with sea squirt and clams](https://img.superchart.com/images/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu/yongin-folk-village-bok-seafood-kalguksu-12-1dprm-900.webp) Order the pufferfish seafood kalguksu set (₩15,000) and you get a full table like this — the refreshing seafood kalguksu is amazing, and the smoky, spicy barley bibimbap that comes with it is so good too. I get why it's famous as a Korean Folk Village restaurant.
