After a Costco run, the writer brought her mom for griddle jjukkumi with the loaded add-on set (beef belly) for two at medium spice, wrapping it in sesame leaves with gim, shredded radish, flying fish roe and white sauce, plus complimentary egg custard and fried rice to finish. Her mom called it different and delicious, and Jeongipum Jjukkumi is a definite repeat visit. ## Good to know - **What we ordered**: Griddle jjukkumi + loaded add-on set (beef belly), 2 servings - **Spice level**: Mild / Medium / Spicy — staff say medium is about as hot as Shin Ramyun - **Extras**: Flying fish roe costs extra; white sauce and shredded radish are refilled free - **Complimentary**: Egg custard (gyeranjjim) - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–22:00 (last order 21:00) - **Parking**: 2 hours at the Gwangmyeong AK Plaza parking lot, usually plenty of spaces - **Address**: 1F, Unit 161, 19 Yangji-ro, Gwangmyeong-si, Gyeonggi-do *as written by the visitor on Sep 17, 2026* ## Why Jeongipum Jjukkumi Gwangmyeong is my number one jjukkumi restaurant Jeongipum Jjukkumi Gwangmyeong 1st Branch is a griddle jjukkumi (stir-fried baby octopus) restaurant between IKEA and Costco near Gwangmyeong Station. It's my number one jjukkumi place, hands down. ![Griddle jjukkumi at Jeongipum Jjukkumi Gwangmyeong 1st Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-01-1jjf0-1200.webp) Honestly, out of every jjukkumi restaurant I've ever eaten at, this one is the best. I mean it, haha. Spicy-sweet, chewy, plump jjukkumi stir-fried with savory, tender beef belly. This is the griddle jjukkumi with extra noodles (beef belly) we had at Jeongipum Jjukkumi Gwangmyeong 1st Branch. It's so good I'll recommend it right off the bat, haha. ### Where is Jeongipum Jjukkumi? Between IKEA and Costco at Gwangmyeong Station It's between IKEA and Costco near Gwangmyeong Station. Stop by while you're out shopping at either one. We actually swung by after a Costco run that day. ![Entrance of Jeongipum Jjukkumi in Gwangmyeong AK Plaza](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-02-82wwt-966.webp) ![Spacious, comfortable interior of Jeongipum Jjukkumi Gwangmyeong 1st Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-03-1r58b-966.webp) ![Seating and griddle table at Jeongipum Jjukkumi Gwangmyeong 1st Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-04-son6m-966.webp) The place is very spacious and comfortable. ## Two servings with mom: reserving a table and being seated right away I took my mom to Jeongipum Jjukkumi Gwangmyeong 1st Branch and ordered two servings. She'd been craving jjukkumi for days, so off we went to Jeongipum, the place we visit whenever the craving hits! ![Table for two pre-set with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-05-1cxyo-966.webp) ![Griddle jjukkumi set for two people](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-06-1nj9b-966.webp) Since we told them what we wanted when we made the reservation, our table was already set up. We were seated right away and the food came out quickly too. ![Jjukkumi and beef belly on the griddle before cooking](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-07-t5ofq-966.webp) This place is always packed, even on weekdays. Every time I come, I'm reminded it's a genuinely great restaurant because there's always a crowd. There used to be a wait even on weekdays, but it does seem better after the expansion and remodel. Still, I highly recommend making a reservation before you go. Anyway, our jjukkumi and beef belly griddle stir-fry looked incredibly appetizing even before it was cooked, right? Haha. ![Jjukkumi and beef belly stir-fry before it's cooked](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-08-jbkio-966.webp) ![Staff member cooking the griddle jjukkumi](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-09-2a8i4-966.webp) ![Jjukkumi and vegetables stir-frying on the griddle](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-10-g47vs-966.webp) We didn't have to do anything ourselves — a staff member came over and cooked it for us, checking back regularly to see how it was doing. ![Close-up of the griddle jjukkumi cooking nicely](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-11-b76wt-966.webp) ![Griddle jjukkumi ordered at medium spice](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-12-1qem2-966.webp) ![Finished jjukkumi and beef belly stir-fry](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-13-16o9d-966.webp) ### How spicy is medium at Jeongipum Jjukkumi? About Shin Ramyun level At Jeongipum Jjukkumi you can choose your spice level: mild, medium, or spicy. They told us medium is about as spicy as Shin Ramyun, so we went with that — and thanks to all the vegetables, it turned out less spicy and less intense than I expected. If you love spicy food, go with the spicy option. Medium was just right for us. ## How to eat the jjukkumi: sesame leaf, gim, shredded radish and flying fish roe Jeongipum Jjukkumi Gwangmyeong 1st Branch even has instructions posted for the ideal way to eat the jjukkumi. Once it's cooked this well, all that's left is to dig in — so we followed the instructions as shown. ![Instructions for eating jjukkumi the tasty way](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-14-1kfqt-966.webp) ![Sesame leaves and gim prepared for wraps](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-15-1euoh-966.webp) First, place a sheet of gim (dried seaweed) on the rough side of a sesame leaf. ![Wrap with gim placed on a sesame leaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-16-1viss-966.webp) ![Sesame leaf wrap topped with radish and jjukkumi](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-17-4lkry-966.webp) ![Jjukkumi wrap topped with flying fish roe and white sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-18-aie65-966.webp) Add shredded radish, bean sprouts, and jjukkumi, then top with flying fish roe and white sauce. I notice the bean sprouts are missing from the photo — I'm not a big fan of bean sprouts, so I left them out, haha. ![A plate of extra flying fish roe](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-19-1cazd-966.webp) ![Refilled white sauce and shredded radish](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-20-1pg68-966.webp) Flying fish roe has to be ordered separately, but they keep bringing more white sauce and radish for free! The popping flying fish roe with the smooth, sweet white sauce is genuinely a perfect match for jjukkumi! ![A bite of jjukkumi wrap topped with beef belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-21-ct77x-966.webp) I piled on some beef belly too and took a hearty bite — pure bliss, seriously. ## Complimentary egg custard and fried rice to finish ![Complimentary egg custard served at the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-22-f2qnt-966.webp) The complimentary egg custard (gyeranjjim) was truly perfect. And you can never skip the finale: fried rice! ![Finishing fried rice cooked on the griddle](https://img.superchart.com/images/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe/jeongipum-jjukkumi-gwangmyeong-mother-flyingfish-roe-23-1ola0-966.webp) We stir-fried it up and wrapped it in gim too. I thought I was way too full to finish, but somehow it kept going in... and we scraped the pan completely clean, haha. It was a genuinely delicious meal out — it had been a while. My mom, who came with me, raved that it was so tasty, saying it tasted different from the jjukkumi she'd usually had, in a good way. I think we'll be back again soon.
