About
Neighborhood comfort food spot near Haengsin Station serving deeply simmered ox bone soup, chewy tendon soup, and boiled beef.
Tucked near Haengsin Station in Goyang, Haengsin Seolleongtang carries the unvarnished charm of a weathered neighborhood soup counter. Free of flashy fixtures, the dining room hums with regulars—hiking groups nursing warm bowls after trail runs, office workers on restorative lunch breaks, and younger patrons lingering over hangover recovery meals. The owners run an intimate operation where the focus never drifts from the cauldron. The cornerstone is the seolleongtang, built on ox bones simmered for three days until the broth runs opaque and milky white. Unlike soups bolstered by shortcut powders, the broth here arrives clean, unadorned, and free of off-flavors, coated in the mild, sweet fragrance of freshly chopped scallions. Tucked beneath the surface sits a generous nest of wheat noodles and thinly sliced brisket with a tender, yielding bite. Seasoning is left entirely to the diner, who tailors each spoonful with table salt and coarse black pepper. For a richer alternative, the doganitang delivers collagen-heavy ox knee cartilage simmered to a chewy, supple consistency without turning stringy or tough. Alongside both soups, the side spread does heavy lifting: sharp house-cured kimchi, crunchy kkakdugi, pickled peppers, and savory ojingeo-jeot (salted fermented squid), which cuts neatly through the richness of the beef marrow. Traditionalists often splash spoonfuls of fermented radish brine straight into the broth once the meat and noodles are cleared. The concise menu shifts modestly with the seasons, rotating in chig-naengmyeon (arrowroot cold noodles) during summer heat and sagol tteokguk (rice cake soup) when temperatures plunge. Plated suyuk (boiled beef) rounds out the offerings for those settling in with soju. Haengsin Seolleongtang remains an honest, unfussy refuge centered squarely on time-honored simmering methods.
