[Baekam Wangsundae] Top-Tier Sundae Soup near Gangnam-gu Office Station! Clean, Deep Broth + Assorted Suyuk

Here’s “Baekam Wangsundae,” a well-known spot for sundae-guk (Korean blood sausage soup) near Gangnam-gu Office Station! If you search on the map, you’ll see quite a few places with similar names, but this restaurant is said to be independently run, separate from the chain. With a strong base of regulars and a long-standing reputation, it’s a place you can visit with confidence.

Their sundae-guk is often described as having a slightly different character from the typical spots in Seoul. Taste preferences may vary, but most people seem to enjoy it. The broth, in particular, stands out for being cleaner and more refined in flavor. The owner reportedly simmers the broth every early morning and even makes their own soy sauce, which really speaks to the fundamentals.

In the video, the assorted suyuk (boiled pork platter) is introduced first. It comes with various cuts (pork tongue, jowl/neck cut, and ear) along with Baekam-style sundae, and they also serve the sundae-guk broth separately on the side. Since each cut has its own taste and texture, it’s fun to compare them as you eat.If you’d like salt for dipping, you can request it and they’ll bring it to your table. Reviews also mention that they do an especially good job of removing any porky odor, so even those who are sensitive to the smell may find it approachable.

For the sundae-guk, you can choose either an extra spicy version (lightly hot) or a milder, clean version depending on your preference. Some people even say the Baekam sundae has a texture that’s a bit like a German-style sausage—in a good way. 😄

The soup is served with dadaegi (spicy seasoning paste), but instead of mixing it in right away, try the broth first as-is. Each table has black pepper, perilla powder, and kkakdugi (radish kimchi), so you can customize the flavor in several ways.Since the broth is the true highlight here, take your time and enjoy it slowly, one spoonful at a time.
