After visiting the National Museum of Korea, I needed to satisfy my hunger. So, I headed to Neungdong Water Parsley (Minari) Shinyongsan Branch.

This place has been famous for its long waiting lines, but I really wanted to try it because of the unique combination of water parsley (minari) and Gomtang (beef bone soup).

Located on the 1st and 2nd floors at 28, Hangang-daero 40-gil, Yongsan-gu, this restaurant exudes a popular-restaurant vibe right from the entrance.

We ordered the Neungdong Water Parsley Gomtang (₩15,000)!

Oh! And beer too!

Side dishes were prepared first.

Fermented Seafood (Jeotgal)

When you think of Gomtang, soju usually comes to mind first, but since it was humid, we enjoyed a refreshing beer before the Gomtang arrived.

The Gomtang broth was clear, light, yet rich in flavor.

The generous amount of water parsley (minari) on top was fragrant and crunchy, giving it a unique charm that sets it apart from regular Gomtang.

Caution: May cause trypophobia

Adding a little of the fermented seafood (Jeotgal) that comes with it to the Gomtang enhances the savory flavor and made it really delicious.

Thanks to the aroma of water parsley (minari), the Gomtang was clean and fresh.

The combination when eaten with the fermented seafood (Jeotgal) is the best!

Refills of rice were free!

I recommend filling yourself up at Neungdong Water Parsley (Minari) Gomtang.

Real Korea, Curated for Global Travelers

WassupKorea is a next-generation platform designed for foreigners who want to truly experience Korea — not just as tourists, but as locals. While countless Koreans have shared their daily lives, food experiences, and cultural tips through blogs, videos, and social media, much of this valuable content remains locked behind language barriers. WassupKorea solves this by collecting and curating high-quality local content and making it accessible to global audiences through real-time AI-powered translation. Instead of superficial recommendations, users gain access to authentic, first-hand stories — from hidden street food spots to weekend mountain hikes — written by Koreans for Koreans, now reinterpreted for the world.

AI-Powered Personalization, Translation, and Voice Interaction

What sets WassupKorea apart is its deep integration of artificial intelligence at the core of the platform. AI matches users with personalized content based on their language, nationality, and travel interests. Whether you're looking for vegan Korean food in Jeonju or part-time job tips in Seoul, the platform's smart engine brings the most relevant, timely posts to the forefront. Every piece of content — blog summaries, local guides, user comments — is instantly translated using advanced AI translators. Users can also listen to posts via natural-sounding voice AI in their own language. Real-time voice translation in community chats allows for live conversations between users from different countries. With voice synthesis, AI can even "learn" your voice preferences to create a more natural and immersive experience.

A Living Community Driven by Local Content and Global Connection

WassupKorea is more than just an information portal — it’s an AI-driven community hub that grows smarter as users interact. Travelers and residents alike can share their own content via links from TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, or directly post on the platform. AI categorizes the content, suggests similar posts, and connects users with shared interests. Foreigners living in Korea can also access essential resources like visa tips, rental guides, job listings, and lifestyle hacks. As more content is generated and more interactions occur, the AI refines its recommendations — creating a dynamic feedback loop that benefits every user. WassupKorea bridges the gap between Korea’s deep local knowledge and the global audience eager to explore it, forming a smart, multilingual, and inclusive platform for everyone curious about life in Korea.
