Yongsan-gu · Hannam-dong / 24-hour pork bone stew
한남동감자탕 본점
Tucked in an alley off the Hannam intersection, this no-frills spot has fed the neighborhood around the clock for decades, its walls covered in decades of celebrity autographs. It's a genuine local fallback for a hot, filling meal at any hour, a rarity in a district now dominated by trendy cafes and galleries.

Gamjatang · pork spine and potato stew
Get the gamjatang or ppyeojjim (steamed pork spine) for two, spoon the meat and potato into the broth, and wrap bites in perilla leaves with ssamjang.
Open 24 hours, so it's a reliable option for a very late dinner or an early breakfast near Hannam/Itaewon; the deep-red broth is spicy, so ask for it mild if needed.
For allergies or dietary restrictions, ask the restaurant about ingredients and preparation before ordering.
FROM OTHER DINERS
Famous old gamjatang place in Hannam. Already well-known to Chinese tourists as well. Went for Gamjatang with a friend and we were both very happy and satisfied. I like adding siraegi (dried radish leaf) for more flavor and vegetable fiber (haha) Ppyojjim (뼈찜 - braised backbo
Beef was so tender, soup was flavourful and heartwarming. Definitely a must visit!
