가까미(92 reviews)Takeout・Visited 2026/07(1 visits)4.0069 years Michelin consecutive selection!Finally visited Buchon Yukhoe (부촌육회), the most famous spot in Gwangjang Market. Once I arrived at Gwangjang Market, I saw a cluster of shops selling yukhoe (Korean beef tartare). At 4 PM, the restaurant was already packed with several groups of diners. After I sat down, a waitress set down beef radish soup, kimchi, and sesame oil. Since I'd had a late lunch, I wanted to eat yukhoe-nakji tangtangi (beef tartare with live octopus) and get bibimbap to go. I asked the staff if leftovers could be packed, but was told that food already being eaten cannot be packed. Perhaps because it was summer, they said the octopus couldn't be packed, so I ordered two bibimbap (special) and one yukhoe for takeout. While waiting for my order, I had the beef radish soup, which is said to be even more famous here than the yukhoe. It was great to taste the hot, refreshing beef radish soup in person ^^ The man managing the waitlist asked the kitchen to include plenty of ice packs so it would last for two hours, so the yukhoe was wrapped on both sides with them. Thanks to that, I felt at ease taking it to-go despite the sweltering summer weather. Before entering the shop, my phone died, so I asked the male staff member outside where I could buy a charger. Thankfully, he offered to charge it for me at the shop. While my order was being prepared, my phone charged up to 12%, which allowed me, a terrible navigator, to follow the maps and get home safely. Reviews from my family who ate the delivered food~ Child 1: It's my first time having authentic yukhoe so I can't compare the taste, but it's delicious. Child 2: I'm going to earn a lot of money later and eat tons of yukhoe~ Husband: The yukhoe was just a verry slight bit tough, but it was generally tasty. Child 1 must have had yukhoe before at buffets or other restaurants, but it seems like this was their first time tasting what real yukhoe is like ^^ Thinking about my husband's review, I realized the texture might have declined slightly since two hours had passed since takeout. The great taste and the kindness of the staff made it a more pleasant visit and a memorable experience.

It was raining that day and there was no wait, so I went into Buchon. I usually get the yukhoe bibimbap when I come to Buchon Yukhoe (부촌육회). Every time, I tell myself I’ll ask them to leave out the cucumber, but then I forget again when it’s time to order. This time, I just picked it all out as I ate, as usual. I normally have lunch in Gangnam, but whenever I have a reason to come to Jongno, I stop by Gwangjang Market for yukhoe bibimbap. Maybe I’m too used to Gangnam prices, but sometimes I can’t believe it’s only 11,000 won. The value is unbeatable.
