Its medium gamjatang had generous large, tender pork, greens, and add-ins—enough for 3 to 4 people. Verdict: a satisfying choice for a hangover meal or a hearty meal. ## Good to know - **Address**: 101 Ogeum-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul, South Korea (1st floor) - **Hours**: Open 24 hours - **Seating**: Tables for 2 or 4, plus solo-dining seats - **Gamjatang sizes**: Medium and large - **Rice**: Not included with gamjatang - **Review event**: Show staff a Naver receipt or Google review for one complimentary canned drink *as written by the visitor on Sep 12, 2026* ![Signature dish at Boseung Hoegwan Bangi Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-01-1tcch-1200.webp) Boseung Hoegwan, a great gukbap (rice soup) spot in Bangi-dong. ![Exterior of Boseung Hoegwan in Bangi-dong](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-02-qz4gn-900.webp) ![Boseung Hoegwan Bangi Branch storefront](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-03-7mk8v-900.webp) ![Boseung Hoegwan near Seokchon Lake](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-04-1a0uj-900.webp) ## A 24-hour gamjatang restaurant near Seokchon Lake I visited Boseung Hoegwan, one of my favorite places around Seokchon Lake and Bangi-dong. I really love gamjatang (pork bone soup), so I’ve tried it at plenty of restaurants, but it had been a long time since I found one as clean-tasting as this, with none of that unwanted meat smell. It’s a reliably delicious 24-hour haejangguk (hangover soup) spot near Seokchon Lake, even after several visits! It’s right by the east side of Seokchon Lake, at the entrance to Bangi-dong Food Alley, so it’s very easy to reach. It’s also perfect for a meal before or after visiting Jamsil Station, Lotte World Tower, Seokchon Lake, or Lotte World. 👍 ![Store sign noting 24-hour operation](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-05-38qyg-900.webp) Because it is open 24 hours, you can eat here whenever you visit. If you’re in Jamsil craving Korean food and wondering where to go, this is an easy, no-pressure choice. ![Tables inside Boseung Hoegwan](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-06-pojd9-900.webp) ![Solo-dining seats inside Boseung Hoegwan](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-07-1ghe0-900.webp) ## A clean interior with solo-dining seats The interior has always been clean, with a range of seating including tables for two, tables for four, and solo-dining seats. Since it specializes in hangover food and stays open 24 hours, it’s also great for eating alone. Looking at the menu, there are so many choices—seriously, so many. ![Boseung Hoegwan menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-08-1dhac-900.webp) ![Rice soup and hot-pot menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-09-1hgcs-900.webp) - Rice soups: sundae gukbap (blood sausage rice soup), suyuk gukbap (boiled pork rice soup), pork jowl suyuk gukbap, offal gukbap, ppyeo haejangguk (pork bone hangover soup), samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup) - Hot pots: bone gamjatang, sundae-gopchang jeongol (blood sausage and intestines hot pot) - Drinking dishes: assorted boiled pork, blood sausage and pork-head meat, blood sausage and pork jowl, sulguk (boozy soup), mung bean pancake, seafood scallion pancake - Extras: pressed pork-head meat, fire-grilled meat, plate of sundae, seasoned pollock sashimi, seasoned boiled dumplings, DIY rice balls ## Even the medium gamjatang is generous I was once completely hooked on this place’s pork jowl boiled-pork set meal and ordered only that over and over, but lately I’ve been into gamjatang, so of course I ordered the medium gamjatang again this time. Gamjatang elsewhere is usually divided into small, medium, and large, but this place only has medium and large. Boseung Hoegwan’s medium costs about what a small does elsewhere, yet gives you much more food, so it’s a truly great-value spot. ![Table review-event notice](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-10-ov67m-579.webp) They are also running a Naver receipt and Google review event. Scan the QR code at each table, write a review, and show it to a staff member to receive one canned drink, so don’t forget to claim the perk. The basic table setting is simple: kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi), kimchi, and a soy-mustard sauce. ![Basic side dishes for gamjatang](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-11-1htpw-900.webp) ![Kimchi and kkakdugi side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-12-131c0-900.webp) ![Gamjatang with basic side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-13-1k786-900.webp) ![Soy-mustard sauce and side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-14-k7ybl-900.webp) Just so you know, rice is not included with the gamjatang, so we ordered two extra bowls! It arrived partially cooked, and the hot-pot pan was wide from side to side and deep, too. ![Gamjatang in a wide, deep hot-pot pan](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-15-a08r0-900.webp) ![Partially cooked gamjatang](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-16-7as7y-900.webp) ![Gamjatang hot-pot ingredients](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-17-1sp8i-872.webp) Honestly, this is a portion for 3 to 4 people, not just 2. It is packed with ugeoji (dried cabbage greens), potatoes, glass noodles, scallions, and tteokbokki rice cakes, so generously that there’s no need to add extra noodles or greens. ![Gamjatang with ugeoji and add-ins](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-18-m110e-900.webp) Once the hot pot is bubbling away, lower it to medium-low heat and dig in. ![Bubbling gamjatang hot pot](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-19-10ydn-900.webp) The generous use of ugeoji gives the broth a deep flavor, and the meat is seriously big and substantial! ![Gamjatang with large pieces of pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-20-fvlgc-900.webp) I’ve had plenty of disappointing meals elsewhere—some places have tough meat, and some have meat that smells—but absolutely none of that here. It is simmered so thoroughly that it comes apart easily without any effort, and the balance of meat and fat makes it tender and savory. The meat is so substantial and the portion so generous that it would be great as a drinking snack, too. ![Tender gamjatang pork](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-21-rmgcx-900.webp) ![Gamjatang pork and broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-22-13zt1-900.webp) ![Side dishes served with gamjatang](https://img.superchart.com/images/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan-23-1bzb9-900.webp) You absolutely can’t leave out kkakdugi and kimchi at a gukbap restaurant! Add some kkakdugi to the spicy hangover soup and it keeps refreshing your palate, so you just keep eating, haha. With chains that offer many different dishes, rather than a place that focuses on just one dish, you might wonder whether they lack depth... But Boseung Hoegwan has almost no branch-to-branch variation among the chains I’ve tried, and it is consistently delicious wherever you go. A great Jamsil spot for a hangover meal or simply a satisfying meal—I’ll be back again soon! ## Where it is - Boseung Hoegwan Bangi Branch (보승회관 방이점) (보승회관 방이점) - 101 Ogeum-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul, South Korea (1st floor) - 서울특별시 송파구 오금로 101 1층 - 37.5131489, 127.1079369 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B3%B4%EC%8A%B9%ED%9A%8C%EA%B4%80%20%EB%B0%A9%EC%9D%B4%EC%A0%90/@37.5131489,127.1079369,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-daily-plates/bangidong-gamjatang-hearty-boseunghoegwan/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
