Early morning arrival at Bonjeon Pork Soup near Busan Station with a long waiting line

This post captures the beginning of a new year trip to Busan by Couple J Chuchu, starting with a legendary breakfast at Bonjeon Pork Soup.

An early morning arrival, an unexpected long wait, and a rich bowl of pork soup turned a small couple quarrel into a warm and memorable travel moment.

Known for its long history since 1961, this pork soup restaurant proves why it is often called the best in Busan.

Introducing Couple J Chuchu and a New Beginning

Hello! We are Couple J Chuchu.

It has already been almost six years since we opened our YouTube couple channel, but we realized we never properly introduced ourselves here.

Starting this year, we plan to share more of our couple updates and travels on the blog.

Our first trip of the new year was a short overnight visit to Busan, which felt more like a packed day trip full of energy.

Early Morning Arrival in Busan

After boarding an early morning train, we arrived at Busan Station around 8 AM.

YouTube mode was instantly on, and filming began as soon as we stepped out.

After a small couple quarrel, we promised not to fight and decided to head straight for breakfast.

Our First Ever Pork Soup Wait

It was my first time ever waiting in line for pork soup.

The restaurant opened at 9 AM, so we aimed to arrive right on time.

Surprisingly, we arrived just two minutes before opening and were greeted by a long queue.

The place was already packed, making us wonder just how good Busan’s number one pork soup could be.

First Bite of Bonjeon Pork Soup

After waiting about 20 minutes, we finally made it inside.

We ordered two bowls of pork soup, and the meal started with kimchi, followed by the steaming bowls.

I tasted the broth first, and it was incredibly rich.

Even while writing this, I can’t help but drool thinking about it.

Tender Pork and Perfect Kimchi

The pork was unbelievably tender, and I immediately thought about trying the boiled pork next time.

The kimchi wasn’t salty at all and tasted so good that I went back for a refill.

Eating the rice together with the soup and kimchi felt absolutely heavenly.

A Breakfast Worth the Wait

After such a hearty breakfast, any memory of our earlier quarrel completely disappeared.

We left the restaurant feeling full, satisfied, and genuinely happy.

This experience alone made the early wake-up call worth it.

Why Bonjeon Pork Soup Is a Busan Classic

Bonjeon Pork Soup has been serving customers since 1961.

After tasting it ourselves, we fully understood why it has maintained such a strong reputation for so long.

If you are searching for the best pork soup in Busan, this place is absolutely worth recommending.

Our Busan trip started on a perfect note, and we’re excited to share more travel stories soon.

Please stay tuned for more updates from Couple J Chuchu.
