[Apgujeong Jinju] Hannam-dong Samgyeopsal Spot (+ Highly Recommend the Spicy Crab Salad!)

Introducing “Apgujeong Jinju,” a delicious samgyeopsal (grilled pork belly) restaurant located in Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul!

They say actor Park Seo-joon is a regular here. The restaurant serves fresh shaved pork belly and their signature “Jinju samgyeopsal.” The staff grills the meat for you, and it’s especially tasty when you wrap the pork belly in minari (Korean water parsley). People also rave about the banchan (side dishes), and interestingly, you can even order caviar separately to enjoy with the pork belly.

In the video, the owner introduced a Chungcheongnam-do–style spicy raw crab salad (꽃게무침). Since it’s a new item, it might not be printed on the menu yet—but they do sell it, so make sure to try it. The slightly spicy kick pairs incredibly well with samgyeopsal.

The restaurant has a clean, quiet vibe, making it a great place for close friends or couples to sit and chat. If you’re looking for a solid samgyeopsal spot to recommend in Yongsan, this place is a great choice!
