FoodOn September 17, 2026, I went on my own for lunch at Boncho Bapsang, at the far end of an alley in the Yangnyeongsi herbal medicine market in Jegi-dong, Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul. I ordered its signature dish, the myeonyeok yakseontang, an herbal beef soup that costs 15,000 won for a single serving. It suits anyone who wants a warm bowl of soup after browsing the herbal medicine market.
