Interviewed by HeySeorak
SeafoodPremiumSokcho Beach

A second-floor sashimi house facing Sokcho Beach, with wide windows over the sea and the Sokcho Eye ferris wheel. Jangsu Live Fish has been in the same family story since 1993: eleven years in Daepo, then this beachside location from 2003. The menu is direct and old-school in the best way - live sashimi, mulhoe, seafood stews, red crab ramen, and the owner's unusual kim-chobap, a seaweed-wrapped sushi roll she has carried since the Daepo days.

Pro tip

Come for the view, then order like a local: kim-chobap if you want the house signature, mulhoe for a cold Sokcho seafood meal, or red crab ramen if you want something hot and easy after the beach. For a table, the crab set bundles snow crab, sashimi, squid sundae, and mulhoe. English is limited, but the owner's son runs the upstairs cafe and can help by phone or in person.
