Why This Dish Is Special
The evening version of the dish that fills Jonggak lunch trays. Spicy-sweet stir-fried pork is served in a jar, portioned for two, and it is one of the three middle-dish choices on the Ijang and Maeul feast tables. Office teams from Jongno and Gwanghwamun order it when they want heat and rice without building a full bansang.
