Korea time, from recent reviews. Hours may differ on holidays.

A small old fish-stew house on the second floor of Gangneung Central Market. There are just two dishes: samsuki-tang, a spicy stew of sea raven (samseogi), a homely East Sea fish, topped with water parsley, and altang, a spicy stew packed with fish roe and milt. It opens at 9 am, so many come for a hangover breakfast.
