Hello! As a 40-something designer and passionate gukbap lover who spent 16 years in Canada, I've developed quite a discerning palate for Korean soups.
Today, I'm excited to share one of Yangpyeong's culinary treasures: Hangang Sundae Guk.

With over 40 years of history, Hangang Sundae Guk stands as one of Yangpyeong's two premier sundae guk destinations. Their specialty? A unique radish greens sundae guk that you won't find anywhere else. The broth achieves a perfect harmony between light and rich flavors, reminiscent of Jeju's famous Woojin Hangover Soup but with its own distinctive character.
The side dishes deserve special mention:
- Fresh, sweet-and-sour diced radish kimchi
- Homestyle cabbage kimchi with authentic countryside flavor
- Perfectly seasoned mild pickled peppers
We tried their mixed platter featuring head meat, sundae, and tripe. While it may not be revolutionary, it's certainly satisfying and would make an excellent accompaniment to drinks, though the meal stands perfectly well on its own.
What makes this place special is its consistency and quality. The soup offers a unique yet comforting taste that keeps drawing people back. While it might not warrant a special trip from Seoul solely for the meal, it's an excellent stop during a day trip to Yangpyeong or as part of a scenic drive.
Pro tip: Consider visiting during off-peak hours to fully enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and attentive service.
Whether you're a sundae guk aficionado or just looking to try something new, Hangang Sundae Guk offers a delightful dining experience that showcases the best of Yangpyeong's local cuisine. Come with an appetite and leave with a smile!
