Damyang, located in Jeollanam-do, is not only famous for its bamboo trees, but is also for its tteokgalbi, or grilled short rib patties.
Tteokgalbibonga, known for its signature tteokgalbi, has become quite famous in the area. With its exquisite resemblance to injeolmi (rice cakes coated with powdered soybeans) and the way it melts in your mouth, it’s no wonder Tteokgalbibonga attracts guests from as far as Japan.
Tteokgalbi gets its name from its resemblance to rice cakes, or tteok. In addition to its texture, its savory marinade brings out the meaty flavor of tteokgalbi.
Aside from their main dish, hanu (Korean beef) tteokgalbi, they also have dwaejigalbi, bulgogi, and galbi tang available, served with regular side dishes of a Korean set menu, even including a dessert. Tteokgalbibonga is often crowded with customers that you’ll likely have to wait in line if you visit for during the evening.

between two small villages located on the border of two provinces (Geumseong-myeon,
Damyang-gun, Jeollanam-do and Sunchang-gun, Jeollabuk-do) and is one of the
three popular mountains of the Honam region (the Southwestern region of Korea
that includes Jeollanam-do and Jeollabuk-do). The fortress is surrounded by
two walls connecting Cheolmabong Peak, Undaebong Peak, and Jangdaebong Peak.
The total length of the outer wall is 6.486 meters and inner wall is 859 meters.
Historians are uncertain about the year the fortress was built, and
have concluded that it dates back to the Three Kingdoms Period (57 BC – 676 AD) based on an examination of the ruins and remains discovered in the surrounding
area. The fortress was reconstructed in 1409 and repaired in 1610 after the
Imjin War (1592-1598). Following that, it continued to develop into a strong
military base.
