Il s’agit d’un restaurant de nouilles traditionnelles aimé des habitants de Jeonju Hanok Village depuis plus de 40 ans, ouvert en 1977. L’établissement est réputé pour son bouillon épais et onctueux, mijoté longtemps, auquel sont ajoutés du perilla (sésame sauvage), de la viande et des œufs.
Les nouilles utilisées ne sont pas les larges nouilles ordinaires, mais des nouilles fines à la texture ferme et élastique. Le plat est garni de poudre de perilla, de piment et d’algues séchées, offrant un goût et une présentation constants au fil des années.
Outre les kalguksu (nouilles coupées au couteau), le restaurant propose des nouilles froides au soja (kongguksu) au goût riche et onctueux, ainsi que des mandu (raviolis) généreusement garnis, qui accompagnent parfaitement les nouilles. Avec chaque commande, du danmuji (radis mariné jaune) et du kimchi de radis en dés (kkakdugi) sont servis ; ce dernier est préparé maison avec des radis d’hiver de Jeju, ce qui lui confère un goût encore meilleur.
◎ Informations sur la Hallyu : ce restaurant est l’un des établissements fréquentés par les acteurs du drama Vingt-cinq, vingt et un. L’actrice principale, Kim Tae-ri, y est venue pour son petit-déjeuner lors du tournage de son vlog, attirant l’attention en dégustant son bol sans en laisser une seule nouille. Tout près se trouve aussi "2521 Guesthouse", la maison d’hôte ayant servi de résidence à Hee-do dans le drama, qui vaut une visite après le repas.

Yeohangga is a guesthouse owned and run by a woman who majored in early childhood education and who has been teaching children for over 20 years. The name means "A home for a happy trip," she says. It’s a unique guesthouse since the owner offers various traditional educational games. The cozy and comfortable guesthouse is a traditional Korean house built in March 2013 at a site where an old house used to be. The main building and detached building are divided by the ridge of the roof with beautiful rafters. There is another meaning to the name of the guesthouse: "a house where the woman is happy." She named it as such for a good reason. She used to live in Seoul when her parents advised her to move to Jeonju and run a guesthouse, leaving her husband and child behind. At first, she considered accepting only female guests, but it wasn't an option since most of the people visiting Jeonju are couples and groups of friends. Instead, she made sure the guesthouse is safe for women while building the house. Many female tourists traveling alone find this a great feature of the guesthouse because they feel safer during their stay. For one, she installed three doors for the rooms (1 transparent door, 1 opaque glass door, and a traditional Korean door). Not only do the guests feel safer; the rooms are also well-insulated thanks to the triple doors. The floors and walls are covered with traditional Korean paper coated with soybean oil, which is very environment-friendly. In the four rooms named “Spring,” “Summer,” “Autumn,” and “Winter,” there are many toys and materials for traditional Korean cognition games, such as “Chilgyo Game,” “Gonu Game,” and “Mabangjin.” It’s very likely that even Koreans have never heard of these games. The owner of the guesthouse chose these games specifically because they are perfect for children to play in a traditional Korean house. She teaches her little guests how to play the games. “Chilgyo Game” involves making a shape with 7 to 20 pieces, whereas “Gonu Game” is similar to the game of Chinese chess. "Mabangjin" is a type of IQ game that involves laying down a total of nine different numbers in three rows and columns so that the sum of the three numbers is identical when added horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Many guests find these games interesting, and the owner of the guesthouse finds joy in teaching these games to as many families as possible. She recently took over another traditional Korean guesthouse called "Samrakheon" near the Jeonju Oriental Medicine Center. It's a stand-alone guesthouse for groups and families, and she uses the place to teach traditional games to more people.

Buyongheon is located in Jeonju Hanok Village. Precisely speaking, Buyongheon is the very next door to Jeonju Hyanggyo (Confucian Temple and School). Across the alley are Jeonju Hyanggyo Culture Center and Wanpanbon Culture Center. If you walk a few more steps, you will reach Jeonju Hanbyeok Culture Center where you can see various performances and experience the culture and foods of Jeonju. Omokdae can be seen from the garden of Buyongheon. Across the Jeonjucheon Stream is the National Intangible Heritage Center.
The beginning of Buyongheon is deeply related with Jeonju Hyanggyo. In around 1935, the local bureaucrats lived around the Hyanggyo after building 12 houses one after another. Most of them came from rich families. These collective houses were called Buyong Houses, which meant rich houses. The name Buyongheon originated from Buyong Houses. The rooms of Buyongheon are composed of Toenmaru Bang, Daecheong Maru Bang, Large Daecheong Maru Bang and Big Sarangchae. The interior of the rooms looks neat with the beauty of blank space as they excluded unnecessary decorations. Carefully prepared breakfast is served upon request made in advance. Visitors can also experience traditional culture such as traditional etiquette education and Korean paper art.
In fall, the yellow leaves of the ginkgo tree in the garden of Jeonju Hyanggyo lights up the roof of Buyongheon. It is recommendable to walk along the Jeonjucheon Stream and take pictures of the colorful murals and the cafes in the Jaman Mural Village located on the left sie of the Hanok Village. It takes 15 minutes from Jeonju Station and 10 minutes from Jeonjuu Express Bus Terminal to Buyongheon by taxi.

Onyuwol is a “hanok” guesthouse located in Jeonju Hanok Village. It is attached to a café that combines hanok and modern interior design and has enjoyed considerable popularity via word-of-mouth among young travelers. There are five rooms in total, which are furnished comfortably like their namesakes (the months of May and June). The rooms bear the hallmark elegance of hanok, from their exposed rafters to red clay floors, white cotton beddings, and muslin curtains. The furnishings remained minimalist, with only bedding, a small TV, electric kettle, and a basket containing a towel, hairdryer, and a hand mirror. The sleep-themed room names show that they are furnished with a restful stay in mind. Opening the door brings guests to the view of the peaceful garden. Nabijam and Kkotjam rooms have small attics that add a layer of elegance, while only the Danjam room is furnished with a bed. All rooms are equipped with bathrooms. Guests can also enjoy a complimentary cup of Americano in the café, and international guests have access to English services.
