I wanted to go to that shop in Noryangjin today - I can't find the thread where it is.

I want me some US beef something crazy!

It pretty much died since you can find US beef all over now.

Still, this place had it going on... I'll be around there today. I'd like to find it.

Best I can remember... leave the station and go up and over the bridge. If you are facing the bridge you go right. You walk in this parking lot and their is a staircase down into the fish market. Facing straight from the fish market go left and walk until you are outside. There is a bank nearby to the right. The beef place is on your left just outside.

For the cheapest beef I have found yet (about 650 won/100g) follow these instructions:

(it's about a 30 min. walk from the subway station or take a taxi to the building - address is towards the bottom)

-Go to Noryangjin on the 4 ling (subway).
-Take exit 1.
-After going down the stairs go over an overpass/bridge.
(no, not the one to your immediate left)
-Take the overpass that is up a flight of stairs (offset to the left a bit but essentially in front of you)
-Follow the bridge until you come to a parking lot
-You will see a building that says "Love your life" "Love your dream." Head towards it.
-Ignore the cars/empty parking spaces to your right and left.
-There is a small building with an opening that you must walk down (there is a handrail by the entrance)
-Walk down two flights (or take the balcony for those of you familiar with the fish market).
-Take an immediate left (notice the numbers on the lower right hand corner of the vendor's signs -- the vendor numbers by the stairway you came down are 162, 164, and 165; there are also a clock and a couple of air conditioning units but you must look closely).
-You will pass an overhead digital sign.
-Walk straight until you leave the building that the fish market is in.
-Immediately upon doing so, you will see a bank that might be obstructed by vendors' umbrellas so look carefully. First it says "Authorized Foreign Exchange Bank" and then you will see Suhyup Bank.
-A little down the street and on the left (about across from the bank) is a the building (past the 3 phone booths on your right). There is a sign that says "US Meat Export Federation." The sign is not huge so look closely.


-The name of the store is 고기스토아.
-The address of the building is 159-5 노들길.
-The phone number is 822-5500 (the banner covered any possible area code). Does anyone know the proper area code?

Oh, and Noryangjin is on the #1 line, one stop south of Yongsan.
