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

The Haeundae house credited with the first pufferfish soup served in a ttukbaegi (hot stone bowl). A clear, bracing broth comes loaded with bean sprouts and minari (water dropwort), and the first floor runs around the clock, so it works as breakfast or a hangover cure after a night out.
