24-hour Korean BBQ restaurant in Gangnam: Daepae Market

A 24-hour meat restaurant between Nonhyeon and Sinnonhyeon stations

It is located between Sinnonhyeon Station and Nonhyeon Station, so getting there is really easy. It felt perfect for an after-work team dinner or a get-together with friends. The clean interior and neatly organized self bar were especially impressive the moment I walked in.

They even have a thin-sliced pork set lunch?

The thin-sliced pork set lunch served at lunchtime seems like something nearby office workers would really love. Thin-sliced pork with kimchi noodle soup—sounds so delicious. Next time, I need to come back for the lunch special.

An unlimited self bar for ₩2,000 per person

This is an unlimited self bar available for ₩2,000 per person. From fresh wrap vegetables and shredded scallions to pickled onions, bracken fern, enoki mushrooms, corn, and green onion kimchi, there are so many side dishes to enjoy for ₩2,000. That feels very affordable too. Just what I ate that day probably came to more than ₩2,000 worth 😗

If any self-bar side dishes run out, the staff will refill them with fresh vegetables if you ask.

I filmed a menu video too, haha. We ordered one serving of beef brisket, two servings of flower pork belly, three servings of thin-sliced pork belly, two servings of dry-aged pork belly, kimchi jjigae, and Yeol Ramen.

Meat is kind, apparently!! How delicious could it be!?

Different cuts of meat sliced to order

Once an order comes in, the owner slices the meat personally.

Here are the dry-aged pork belly, flower pork belly, and thin-sliced pork belly. The quality looked so good that I was already excited before they even hit the grill. We put them straight onto the big stone griddle.

Thin-sliced pork belly with grilled bracken fern

I grilled the thin-sliced pork belly together with side dishes from the self bar. We grilled bracken fern, enoki mushrooms, kimchi, and green onion kimchi—a familiar, delicious combination that simply cannot taste bad. I especially recommend grilling the bracken fern.

It was packed with meat, tofu, and kimchi, so one stew alone made it easy to finish a whole bowl of rice. I really loved that it had so much meat in it. It was truly delicious.

Flower pork belly with a thin strip of cartilage

I like flower pork belly because I enjoy the little strip of otol cartilage attached to it, and this flower pork belly had that thin strip too. It was completely my style and so appealing. Wrap it with kimchi and green onion kimchi, and you have a snack that makes you crave soju 😗🍷

The tender beef brisket

Beef brisket!! Lightly grilled on the griddle, then dipped in sesame oil sauce or the house special sauce, it had an exceptional tender texture.

Finishing with Yeol Ramen and self-made fried rice

After finishing the meat and before the fried rice, we ordered Yeol Ramen. As always, ramen tastes best when someone else makes it for you.

We ordered two self-made fried rice portions. They give you loads of the essential fried-rice ingredients, including seaweed flakes, garlic, and egg, and it costs ₩3,500.

We thoroughly stir-fried it with the meat we had saved and grilled garlic, and of course, fried rice is the perfect finish. I would have been so disappointed if we had skipped it, haha.

Daepae Market Gangnam Nonhyeon Branch was an excellent restaurant where you can enjoy high-quality thin-sliced meat in a variety of cuts at approachable prices. Quality meat at this price point—the owner must be an angel. Daepae Market is open 24 hours, so you can visit whenever is convenient for you.
