If you're looking for a special meal in Boryeong, Umijang is a restaurant you absolutely have to visit! The broth, made with medicinal herbs, is deep and rich in flavor, yet surprisingly clean and refreshing.


What's great is that every *baeksuk* (chicken stew) menu item includes abalone, making it a healthy and satisfying choice! The Abalone and Seaweed Stone Pot Rice has a wonderful umami flavor, and when paired with soy-marinated crab (ganjang gejang) and grilled fish, you're in for a truly exceptional meal! As expected of a famous Boryeong restaurant, they only use fresh, locally sourced ingredients, which is reassuring.

Warm Memories

The *baeksuk* I had was incredibly refreshing, thanks to the variety of ingredients. The stir-fried octopus, made with only domestic octopus, was tender and the sauce was phenomenal – a real rice thief! It's easy to see why this place is so well-known as a Boryeong 맛집.

Valuable Experience

On top of everything, the prices are reasonable, allowing you to enjoy a variety of dishes without breaking the bank. And during lunchtime, you can enjoy the *baeksuk* menu right away with a reservation! It's a great place for group dinners or family gatherings.

Umijang, with its healthy herbal ingredients, fresh produce, and reasonable prices, is a Boryeong restaurant I can confidently recommend and will definitely visit again!

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.
