Bukeotguk (Mugyo-dong Bukeotguk House)

20221029, #breakfastdiary 581, 9°C/mostly sunny Since ancient times, our people believed that through land creatures it was the pig, and through sea creatures the dried pollack (bukeo), that let us commune with the heavenly gods. Source: Encyclopedia of Korean Folk Culture #MugyodongBukeotgukHouse has no empty seats even on a weekend morning. A steaming hot bowl of bukeotguk (dried pollack soup) is set on the table. Finish the bowl and you'll genuinely feel like you could commune with the heavenly gods — though the prerequisite, of course, is having overdone the drinking the night before. #Trivia Though it's called the Mugyo-dong bukeotguk house, administratively it's actually located in Da-dong. It's not on the menu, but you can order a sunny-side-up fried egg on the side. There's a secret password for this — just say '여기 알 하나요' ('an egg here, please').
