Haha & Kim Jong-kook’s 401 Butcher Restaurant · Hongdae
A pork barbecue restaurant at 23 Jandari-ro in Hongdae. The Korea Tourism Organization describes staff grilling the meat, mixed-cut platters, and meal options such as stews and cold noodles.
Pork cuts and platters
The Korea Tourism Organization describes a hanpan set: one platter combining samgyeopsal (pork belly), moksal (neck/shoulder), hangjeongsal (jowl) and gabeurisal (a back cut), allowing diners to compare several cuts. When choosing individual portions or a set, consider the total weight and the number of diners. Check prices against portion weights and the set contents on the restaurant’s menu.
| Cut or set | What to consider |
|---|---|
| Samgyeopsal | Pork belly with alternating layers of fat and lean meat |
| Moksal | Meat from the neck and shoulder area |
| Hangjeongsal and gabeurisal | A selection of distinct specialty cuts |
| Hanpan set | A mixed platter ordered for sharing |
Staff grilling and accompaniments
KTO’s official description says staff grill the meat for diners. Listed accompaniments include white kimchi, ssammu (pickled radish slices), shredded seasoned scallions and meljeot. Pair the grilled meat with vegetables and sauces. Meljeot is a salted anchovy preparation, so anyone avoiding fish ingredients should check it separately from the meat.
Planning the rest of the meal
The official description also lists doenjang-jjigae (soybean paste stew), an old-fashioned lunchbox and naengmyeon (cold noodles). Decide whether to order meat alone, add rice and stew or finish with cold noodles to balance quantities for the group. The journal describes a post-concert meal with Japanese fans; the dishes ordered then are distinct from what is currently sold.
