Jangsunru was a famous Chinese restaurant that people from Gwangjin-gu, Seongdong-gu, and Gangdong-gu came to eat at, but it was closed for 3-4 years due to the store's circumstances. Then it opened about a month ago in December. Even after a month, many customers still remember it and come back. For the dishes, I ate Jeon-ga-bok, Tang-suyuk, Gun-mandu, and Ja-jang-myeon. The Jeon-ga-bok had fresh ingredients, and the Tang-suyuk had a crispy taste even though it had sauce poured on it. Location: 11, Acha-san-ro 76-gil, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul Time: 11:00 ~ 21:30
