mul naengmyun (칡냉면) at Yu Chun (유천냉면), Song pa-gu, Seoul.
chic mul naengmyun (칡물냉면) for 8000₩. this is what I came for. a non-purist's naengmyun (and trust me, it's a good thing) with arrowroot noodles instead of buckwheat, finished at the table with a dabble or two of spicy chili sauce, and a bit of mustard. this is my favorite kind of naengmyun and one of my favorite things to eat on this planet. truly a summer dish in korea, but I'll eat this any time of year no matter what the mercury says. slushy beefy broth with yoelmu kimchi liquid for tang, cucumber, pickled daikon or mu, half a hard boiled egg, a huge slice of korean pear, and finished with sesame seeds. interestingly there were no brisket slices present, not sure if that's intentional or an oversight since it's very common for mul naengmyun. the broth was not too sweet or too acidic to mask the underlying beefiness. clean, refreshing, and 100% delicious. served with hot broth to drink.
