Located in the historic Cheongjin-dong Wooden Market, Cheongjinok restaurant has roots tracing back to Lee Gan-nan, renowned for her delectable soybean soup and rice offerings to woodcutters at Muakjae. The establishment gained prominence during the 1970s when it became part of the famed 'Cheongjin-dong Haejangguk Alley,' alongside a few hangover soup joints. Recognized in the 'Michelin Guide Korea' in 2011 and honored by the Ministry for Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries in 2012, Cheongjinok has become a beloved symbol of authentic Korean cuisine, embodying a rich culinary legacy that continues to captivate diners to this day.
