The broth is rich and flavorful, likely simmered for hours with dried anchovies and kelp, creating a umami explosion that is simply irresistible. Add a side of kimchi, and you've got a perfect, authentic Korean meal. It's a popular spot with locals, so be prepared to wait a short while during peak hours, but trust me, it's worth it.
