At about 5 on a Tuesday afternoon, a friend and I went to Durumi Gwangan as the first stop of the day. I am told it is in an alley about a 5-minute walk toward the sea from exit 3 of Geumnyeonsan Station.

The Durumi main store in Jeonpo has a long line and is hard to get into. At the Gwangan branch, I think getting in is easier than at the main store if you come at opening time.

The table was a little greasy. It is a barbecue place, so I let it pass.

We first ordered the Jeju premium pork belly. A staff member explains and grills it for you. I liked the way they explained things.

Next we had the Hwangje rib meat.

Among the pork barbecue places I have been to in Busan, I think this is one of the tastier ones. I could see why it is so popular. If there is no line, or you have time to wait, I would recommend it.

The last dish was fried rice. I suggest you order it.

After the meal we walked along Gwangalli Beach and then went to [Izakaya Yasumu Gwangan](/en/blog/gwangalli-yasumu-20260421/).
