We call a family a family member () for the meaning of living together in the same house and sharing meals together. Eating together means talking with each other, sharing that time, and acting as a meaningful medium. As time goes on and on with the people you eat with, the depth of closeness deepens. Therefore, eating a meal has more social meaning than just a meal.
In this regard, President Yoon Suk-yeol's commitment stands out. “I'm not going to eat aloneâ€
This is accepted as meaning to sit face to face, interact, and communicate while eating together. The fact that Kimchi Jjigae, which is the “favorite†menu, visited “Fat Nakwon†in Tongui-dong, which is known to be delicious, with Takeover Chairman Ahn Cheol-soo and Vice Chairman Kwon Young-sae during the takeover, and visiting “Cheongmok Shin Champon,†a restaurant in Midam that provided free meals to firefighters and members of the fire brigade at the scene during the Uljin forest fire damage in Gyeongbuk, is also explained by their intention.
President Yoon Seok-yeol is known as a foodie to the extent that there is a saying “Guide to Yoon Su-lang.†I look forward to eating together, eating together, and cooperating for a “future together.â€

This place is also famous for its owner's story about homeless people running away after a walkie-talkie, saying “Don't run, get hurt.†The interior of the restaurant shows signs of time, but the clean and tidy space measures the personality of the owner and the taste of the food. The menu consists simply of warm noodle dishes, including onguksu (feast noodles), and gimbap, but the warm onguksu, which is made with anchovies and topped with deep-fried tofu, green onions, and kelp garnish, is as clean and tidy as the atmosphere of the restaurant. It's even more delicious when served with sour kimchi. Gimbap, which is full of sincerity, also has a nice, light flavor.
