Late-night Seoul Korean BBQ with anchovy noodles: Jinseong Hanwoo

Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang Bangi Branch: open until midnight on weekends

Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang Bangi Direct Branch is a beef gopchang (grilled beef small intestine) restaurant at 19 Olympic-ro 32-gil, Songpa-gu, in the Bangi-dong food alley in Seoul. My boyfriend and I stopped by the place we go to SO often and love SO much!

Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang Bangi Branch stays open until midnight on weekends, so it's also a great spot to hit up late at night!

They set the table so neatly and helped us to our seats - (▰˘◡˘▰) The staff are all veterans, so everything from seating to grilling the gopchang moves along smoothly and precisely — every time I visit I'm impressed all over again ٩(๑>∀<๑)۶

What's on the menu and what comes with it

Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang's menu has beef gopchang, beef daechang, and beef makchang! And to go with it, there's kkakdugi (radish kimchi) fried rice and anchovy noodles - (´•᎑•`)♡ Some days we order one of every single item, all five, because everything is that good haha

They gave us their homemade three-kimchi trio, chive salad that goes perfectly with gopchang, and the real kicker of Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang's flavor — their secret sauce ◡( ╹◡╹ )◡

We're true regulars who've come back more than 10 times, so we know exactly how delicious Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang is - aah ٩( ᐢ-ᐢ )و

Why two servings of beef gopchang were enough this time

We ordered two servings of gopchang at Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang Bangi Branch! Honestly we love gopchang, makchang, and daechang all equally and usually order a mix of everything, but this time we were somehow just craving gopchang haha ♪( ›◡‹ )

Even better, the gopchang comes out with a generous pile of vegetables! Kimchi, potatoes, mung bean sprouts, chive salad, and onions - (๑•᎑<๑)ｰ☆ Grilled together with the gopchang, they're honestly just as tasty as the meat itself!

And the bubbling, freshly boiled egg custard is on the house! (๑˘ ᵕ˘๑) My boyfriend loves this egg custard sooo much - it has such deep umami, they must have a secret trick to making it (و ˃̵ᴗ˂̵)و

Timer-grilled at the table, so the gopchang tastes the same every visit

At Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang Bangi Branch, the veteran staff set a timer and grill everything precisely on schedule, so the taste is always spot-on!!! (๑❛ڡ❛๑)☆ Every single time it tastes even better than I expected, which is why I keep coming back♡

They even chop the vegetables into neat bite-sized pieces ( *´°`) Look at it sizzling away — doesn't it look incredible?

Anchovy noodles or kkakdugi fried rice: which to add when you're hungry

And another dish I highly recommend, anchovy noodles （˶′◡‵˶） We were really hungry that day, so we ordered soup along with the gopchang, hehe — us Koreans need carbs on the table, always - ✺◟(ت)◞✺ If you visit on a hungry day like us, definitely order the anchovy noodles or kkakdugi fried rice -

Ta-da - the gopchang all grilled up before we knew it!!! ٩( ᐢ-ᐢ )و Look at that color - you can just tell at a glance it's going to be delicious („ᵕᴗᵕ„)

How to eat gopchang: dunk it deep in the secret sauce

Pick up a piece of gopchang, cut into pretty bite-sized pieces like this - (。╹ ᴗ ╹。)

Mix up the secret sauce well and dunk the gopchang in reeeeally deep ~ ~ ~(๑• ω •๑) Aaah it's seriously so so good (˶ ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ ˶)

Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang is even better eaten with the vegetables!!!

As always, we ordered seconds and ate until we were stuffed — that's the story of our visit to the Bangi branch!! ദ്ദി❁´◡`❁) I love gopchang so much I get my regular gopchang fix - and it's always Jinseong Hanwoo Gopchang!!!
