A Nostalgic Kimchi Samgyeopsal Experience in Hapjeong: Gohyangjip Kimchi Samgyeopsal
Back in my school days and during my commute, I used to take the 2200 bus frequently, which naturally led me to hang out in Hapjeong, Sangsu, and Hongdae often.
Now that the GTX-A exists, I don't usually take the seat bus, but when I want to travel comfortably, even if it takes a little longer, I still take the bus from Hapjeong!
When I frequented Hapjeong, I often visited the delicious restaurants and cafes there. Luckily, I got to visit Gohyangjip Kimchi Samgyeopsal Hapjeong Station, one of the famous restaurants in Hapjeong!

I remember going in because it was close to Hapjeong Station and the exterior was eye-catching.
The red 'Kimchi Raw Samgyeopsal' sign really stands out, and the old-school restaurant vibe makes you want to go in!

We visited on a late weekday lunch and ordered one serving of raw samgyeopsal (17,000 won) and one serving of raw pork neck (17,000 won), which are the most basic!
The side dishes are set up really quickly upon ordering, and you get neatly arranged lettuce, bean sprout green onion salad, ssamjang (soybean paste), garlic and onions, and bean powder.

It had been a long time since I'd been to a BBQ place that gives you bean powder, but what stood out more than that was the bean sprout green onion salad!
I prefer a very tangy and sweet green onion salad, and this one was not only tangy and sweet but also had bean sprouts, giving it a great texture.

They bring the side dishes and immediately heat up the grill!
They put the meat on the grill when it's hot enough, so you can grill the meat crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.

Both the raw pork neck and raw samgyeopsal were high quality and thick, so grilling them over high heat was perfect!
They told us to put the kimchi on when the oil starts to come out, so we grilled the kimchi in the pork oil until it was golden brown... This combination is just perfect!

It was so delicious to wrap the crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside meat with the tangy and sweet green onion salad and grilled kimchi!

The kimchi wasn't quite aged kimchi, but it was well-fermented sour kimchi, making it a perfect match for the samgyeopsal!
