Cheolma Hanwoo Meal Where Midong-gil 19 Meets the Entrance to Apsan Forest
Midong Amsojeong is a specialized Hanwoo restaurant located at 19 Midong-gil, Cheolma-myeon, Gijang-gun, Busan Metropolitan City. In tourist information, it is introduced as a restaurant near the entrance to Apsan Forest, and it is situated within the address area of Ungcheon-ri, Cheolma-myeon. The provided coordinates are 35.288372 north latitude and 129.170751 east longitude.
Cheolma-myeon is located on the inland side of Gijang-gun, so unlike the Haeundae and Songjeong beach areas, it is a region where mountainous and rural scenery continues. This restaurant is not on a walking route through a seaside attraction; instead, it suits an itinerary that combines a visit to Apsan Forest, a Cheolma Hanwoo meal, and driving toward Jeonggwan.
- Road-name address: 19 Midong-gil, Cheolma-myeon, Gijang-gun, Busan Metropolitan City
- Lot number address: 476-8 Ungcheon-ri, Cheolma-myeon, Gijang-gun, Busan Metropolitan City
- Nearby reference point: near the entrance to Apsan Forest
- Business type: restaurant centered on Hanwoo and yukhoe
Meal Time Set Around 11:00 to 20:30 Hours, with Last Order at 19:30
Online restaurant information states that it is open daily from 11:00 to 20:30, with the last order at 19:30. Tourist information says it is open year-round, but since holiday closures, temporary closures, or changes in business hours are possible, it is better to confirm in advance by calling 051-721-9441 or 0507-1426-9441 before departure.
It is available for both lunch and dinner, but if you arrive later than the last order time, ordering meat may be difficult. If you plan to have dinner after visiting Apsan Forest, it is safer to aim to leave the forest before 18:30, and if your group is large, inquire about seating in advance, since the place is described as accepting reservations.
- Business hours: 11:00~20:30
- Last order: 19:30
- Closed days: Information says open year-round
- Reservations: available according to information
- Main phone: 051-721-9441
- Reservation/inquiry phone: 0507-1426-9441
Hanwoo Ordered Instead of Admission: From Assorted Raw Meat Platter to Beef Chuck Tail Flap
Since this is a restaurant, there is no admission fee, and payment is based on the food ordered. Tourist information lists the signature dishes as assorted raw meat platter, marbled sirloin, rib meat, fallen leaf meat, tenderloin, and beef chuck tail flap, while rib flower meat, flank steak, and yukhoe are introduced as additional menu items. Menu prices may change, so they should be checked on the day of the visit through the menu board or by phone.
The tourist information explains that the restaurant uses specially graded and premium-grade female Hanwoo beef that is used only in Korea. However, the scope of terms like "premium-grade" and the cuts sold on the day may vary depending on the restaurant's supply situation, so if there is a specific cut you want, it is a good idea to ask during reservation whether the assorted raw meat platter, tenderloin, or beef chuck tail flap is available.
- Admission fee: free
- Signature dish: assorted raw meat platter
- Signature dishes: marbled sirloin, rib meat, fallen leaf meat
- Signature dishes: tenderloin, beef chuck tail flap
- Other dishes: rib flower meat, flank steak, yukhoe
- Credit card: available according to information
Log-House-Style Interior and Private Room Seating: How to Reserve for Families and Groups
Tourist information says the interior consists of spacious private rooms, and the place is classified as having group seating and separate restrooms for men and women. Separate reviews mention an interior made with logs and a large parking lot. Rather than expecting a quiet, small-scale meal, it fits better to reserve seats for a family meal or a group gathering where several people grill meat together.
User-based information also mentions baby chairs and large rooms, but the number of baby chairs, minimum room order, and whether rooms can be divided are difficult to confirm from public information alone. If you are visiting with a baby, using a wheelchair, or gathering with 6 or more people, it is best to call in advance to confirm baby chairs, thresholds, room allocation, and parking location.
- Seating feature: guided as a spacious room-style layout
- Facilities: group seating
- Restrooms: separate for men and women
- Baby chair: noted in user information
- Recommended stay: about 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours for a meal
- Accessibility: wheelchair and stroller details should be confirmed by phone
Cars Come First in Cheolma-myeon: Free Parking and the Limits of Public Transit
Tourist information states that parking is available and the parking fee is free, and reviews repeatedly mention the large parking lot. Therefore, it is suitable for visitors traveling by rental car or private car together with a visit to Apsan Forest. If you plan to drink alcohol, you should designate a driver or consider calling a taxi.
No reliable public information could confirm specific subway exits, bus routes, or walking times. Midong-gil in Cheolma-myeon is not a station-area restaurant, so foreign visitors should not plan it as a short walk directly from the Busan Metro. Instead, it is more practical to set the destination as "Midong Amsojeong" or the address and prioritize taxi travel.
- Parking: available
- Parking fee: free
- Car access: easy to combine with a visit to Apsan Forest
- Public transit: no confirmed station exit or bus number information
- Taxi destination: 19 Midong-gil, Cheolma-myeon, Gijang-gun, Busan Metropolitan City
- Navigation coordinates: 35.288372, 129.170751
No Official Website Confirmed; Why Phone Calls and the Same-Day Menu Matter Most
No independent official website URL could be confirmed. Therefore, it is not possible to arbitrarily list an official website address, and the most direct way to confirm information that may change on the day, such as business hours, closures, and prices, is to contact 051-721-9441 or 0507-1426-9441.
User reviews repeatedly mention the large parking lot, neat side dishes, yukhoe, and room-style seating. On the other hand, because this place is inland in Cheolma-myeon, it can be less convenient for travelers who want to make a short stop using only public transportation. If you have not decided on a cut of meat, it becomes easier to decide what to order if you first confirm whether the assorted raw meat platter is available, the serving size per person, set-table side dishes and meal items, and the reservation time.
- Official website: not confirmed
- Same-day business check: phone inquiry recommended
- Price check: menu board on site or phone inquiry recommended
- Reservation check: provide group size, room seating, and arrival time together
- Foreign-language guidance: publicly available foreign-language menu or interpretation service information not confirmed
- YouTube: results could not be obtained due to exceeding the daily allocation of the search tool
