Gaegeum Milmyeon

Gaegeum Milmyeon is the representative milmyeon restaurant in Seomyeon, regarded as the originator of Busan’s local dish milmyeon. Milmyeon is a unique local food of Busan that originated when Korean War refugees made noodles from wheat flour instead of buckwheat for naengmyeon. Gaegeum Milmyeon offers both mul-milmyeon, where cold broth is poured over chewy milmyeon noodles topped with aged kimchi, boiled eggs, and sliced pork, and bibim-milmyeon, which is mixed with a spicy seasoning. The broth here, which has stood the test of time for decades, is made by simmering fresh pork bones and vegetables for a long time, boasting a refreshing and deep flavor. It is a famous dish that you must try at least once if you want to experience the true taste of Busan.
