Yeoncheon_Manghyang Bibimguksu (Head Shop)

Noodle restaurant always revisited by soldiers who served

in their military around the area




Across from this restaurant is the famous Key Division (5th Infantry Division), which greatly contributed to the victory of South Korea in the battle of "Blood Ridge" at the Yanggu area in Gangwon-do during the Korean War. "Why are you going to leave, why?" The sound of a popular song played in a brightly lit restaurant near the signboard reading "The Cradle of the Best Soldiers" resounds the street. The melody is exciting and sad at the same time.


Manghyang Bibimguksu Head Shop, located in Gungpyeong-ri, Cheongsan-eup, Yeoncheon-gun, has a military atmosphere. The dark green signboard and menu boards hanging on the walls are reminiscent of military equipment. The tables and chairs in the restaurant are very simple, as if reflecting the will of the owner to exclude all unnecessary things. The stainless steel hand basin has a type of faucet that can be typically seen at a school, which you should turn sideways to get water. There are two bars of Dial soap on top of the hand basin.




Many customers of this noodle restaurant, which opened in 1968, are soldiers. There are groups of soldiers who are supposed to return to their unit after their R&R. You can also see parents who are visiting their soldier sons. Pushing a dish of dumplings toward their sons, they are telling them to eat some more. Many people have eaten the noodles that the owner/couple make longing for their hometown in North Korea, with the same longing in their minds. Manghyang Bibimguksu is a popular restaurant among those who served in the military in Yeoncheon and cannot forget the taste of noodles that they ate during the service period. Regardless of where they came from, Jeolla-do, Gyeongsang-do, or Chungcheong-do, they now share the common liking for Manghyang Bibimguksu. The backs of soldiers in uniform eating noodles alone give off a somewhat lonely impression. However, the noodles in vegetable broth taste pleasantly sweet and spicy. You can finish it in an instant.
