Le parc de Jangchungdan se trouve au pied Nord-Est du mont Namsan. Le 20 août 1895, l’impératrice Myeongseong fut assassinée par des soldats japonais dans le palais de Gyeongbok, et de nombreux soldats comme Gyeongjik (I) et Hong Gyehun moururent alors qu’ils essayaient de retenir les intrus. L’empereur Gojong fit bâtir le sanctuaire de Jangchungdan (à l’emplacement actuel de la guesthosue Shilla hotel) en novembre 1900 à la mémoire de ces soldats. Le sanctuaire fut détruit durant la guerre de Corée et le site a été rénové pour en faire un parc en 1919.

Le 22 septembre 1984, le parc de Jangchungdan a été désigné 374ème parc de voisinage de Corée, et une partie du parc a été intégré au parc de Namsan. La zone restante a conservé le nom de « Parc de Jangchungdan » et abrite toujours des biens culturels tels que la Pierre Commémorative de Jangchungdan, Supyogyo, Seungjeongjeon, Gwanseongmyo, and Waryongmyo. Le parc est considéré comme un haut lieu du patriotisme, car on y trouve la pierre commémorative du mouvement d’indépendance coréen de 1919 ainsi que d’autres monuments dédiés à des personnalités telles que Han Yongun, Yu Gwansun et Gim Yonghwan qui ont combattu pour l’indépendance de la nation.

An elderly lady with fine wrinkles is still in charge of creating the captivating taste of jokbal (steamed pork hock). Originally, the restaurant did not have a name, but customers referred to it as the “Fat Grandma’s Place.” Sure enough, as you enter the restaurant, you will notice a plump, elderly lady with silver hair sitting at the counter. The place is well known for jokbal with an exquisite combination of rich meat and soft fat. Three or four ingredients, including ginger, are added to the simmering broth to eliminate the strong meat smell. When you order a small serving, you are served radish “water” kimchi as well as two small bindaetteok free. You can order additional bindaetteok too, three for 5,000 won. When you order a large serving, you are served four free bindaetteok. Many customers order jaengbanguksu (spicy buckwheat noodles), which goes perfectly with jokbal.

Following his mother’s footsteps, the son of the previous owner is now managing the family business. Opened during the early years of Jokbal Street, the delicious meat at this restaurant is fondly remembered by customers. While the meat itself has almost no fat, the fat portion is extremely soft and savory. This restaurant is also different from the others in that it provides kongnamul-guk (bean sprout soup) with the jokbal (steamed pork hock). Pyeongyang-style naengmyeon (cold noodles) and tteok-mandu-guk (rice cake-dumpling soup) are also delicious. Pyeongyang naengmyeon is cooked to suit South Korean tastebuds. Besides, the noodles and dumplings are hand-made. Despite the restaurants long history, the building of the restaurant is clean and well-maintained as it was being rebuilt after a fire in the 1980s. There are plenty of tables on the first and second floors to accommodate customers, and the third floor is reserved for large groups. Especially noticeable is the clean appearance both inside and out, despite the restaurant’s long history; probably because the building was rebuilt after a fire in the 1980s. Plenty of tables on the first and second floors accommodate customers, and the third floor is reserved for large groups.
