Hello everyone 안녕하세요
I'm a part-time worker girl who fell in love with Korea 🇰🇷
My days off are in Korea! I usually go about once a month to enjoy delicious food, hang out with my boyfriend, and fully enjoy Korea 😚🤍
This time we introduce始興市a gukbap made with beef head meat'맛고을소머리국밥(マッコウルソモリクッパ)'.
Sosaeul(ソセウル)Located a 20-minute bus or car ride from the station, it is surrounded by few buildings and embraced by nature, giving it a peaceful atmosphere🍃

The signboard with '설렁탕' written large in Hangul marks the spot!
Within walking distanceStarfield, a large shopping mall, is also available for shopping.
There is a spacious gravel parking lot in front of the Somori Kuppa restaurant, so it is convenient to drive there.
There is also a kalguksu shop next door.
Both places are said to be popular with people who live nearby!
That just means it's that delicious 🤤
Both restaurants are very busy at lunchtime with lots of customers, and there is constant coming and going of people and cars passing by.
All right, let's head into the shop now—
The interior has many seats and is spacious.

The restaurant turns over quickly, and there’s a lot of coming and going at lunchtime 👀
We went around 2:00 PM, a little after lunchtime, so there weren't many customers.
There's no one to show you to a seat, so it seems fine to sit wherever you want.
When it's busy, I think you'll be seated according to the staff's directions 💭
Kimchi and kkakdugi (radish kimchi) are placed at the table.
It's fine to serve yourself the amount you like onto your plate 🙆🏻‍♀️

Water will be brought by the staff 🫖
That day there were four of us — me, my boyfriend, my older brother, and my father — so we ordered four servings of somori gukbap.
Actually, this is the place where her boyfriend worked part‑time for a long time; he's close with the shop staff and she still goes there to eat often.
This was my second visit at that time.
The shop staff were all kind, and though it was my first time meeting the owner, he was generous and treated us to one cola and one cider!
By the way, have any of you ever been to a kappapa shop?
Surely I'm not the only one — I believe others will relate to this too... haha
A place that serves Kuppa seems to have a high turnover and the food comes out really fast, doesn’t it!?
This one also came out within about five minutes of entering the store 😳😳
As expected from Korea, the sense of speed is perfect 💯
If it's crowded, it might take a little longer.
Alright, the moment you've been waiting for is finally here!

A pleasant fragrance fills the air✨
I personally love sundae gukbap and would always eat it when I went to Korea, but I once tried the somorigukbap here and...
I became a somori (Somori) fan over sundae lol
Beef head meat and beef bonesare simmered to make a soup that's deeply satisfying!
It's similar to seolleongtang, but there's no off-putting smell at all — it's mild and has a smooth mouthfeel 👍🏻
You can adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste 💭
Plenty of beef head meat and glass noodles in the soup!!
The meat is tender and bouncycollagenplenty — it's great for women☺️🫶🏻

It's piping hot, so please be careful not to burn yourself when eating it 💦
The kimchi and kkakdugi aren't very spicy and go perfectly together.
I ate half of the rice with the meat and turned the other half into gukbap to eat 🤤
The sauce for dipping the meat contains mustard, which is also refreshingly different!
But it doesn't have a sharp nose-clearing spiciness — you only mildly taste the mustard, so I think even people who don't like spicy foods can eat it 🙆🏻‍♀️
I actually don't like mustard very much either, but this sauce is totally edible and in fact it's a must-have! (laughs)
I thought the somolikuppa hereuses Korean beefso it might be expensive, but it wasn't like that at all!
¥1,100you can eat this for only ¥1,100 👀
It's a great deal when you think about how meat-packed it is and how good it is for your beauty, right?!
This soup is said to be made every day in a large cauldron outdoors.

In the summer, thinking about making soup here sounds hot and really tough...
They also say the meat is supplied by butchering the beef head they buy every day at the shop.
Freshness you can trust — safe and secure!
It seems they actually use large firewood when cooking the soup, so it has kind of an old-fashioned feel and atmosphere🪵
We accept cash and credit cards.
There is no Japanese menu, but it’s not like there are a ton of options, so you’ll be fine even if you don’t speak Korean 👌🏻
This is also perfect as a hangover soup the day after drinking too much.
If you like sundae gukbap but are getting a little tired of it, definitely try this! You absolutely must go eat the somori gukbap here!!
This is an irresistibly delicious dish — I promise you'll love it ✨
