Stumbled Upon a Hidden Gem During My Daebudo Trip
When you think of Daebudo, seafood by Bangameori Port or watching the sunset at Gubongdo might come to mind. But nestled among these well-known attractions is a little-known gem — Bulranseo Jjinppang, a unique steamed bun (jjinppang) shop that offers so much more than just food.
Honestly, I didn't expect much when I first heard about a steamed bun shop, but this place totally changed my perspective.
It’s warm, inviting, and full of surprises — both in taste and atmosphere. A perfect little stop to wind down during your coastal adventure.

๐ฅ Menu Highlights & My Personal Experience
What surprised me most was the wide variety of steamed buns — this isn’t your typical red bean bun place. They use local ingredients like corn, grape, and pumpkin, and also offer alcohol-fermented rice buns (sulbbang), and even spicy dumplings!
๐ฝ I Tried the Corn Red Bean Bun!
Soft, chewy, and perfectly sweet — the corn red bean jjinppang was an unexpected delight.
The subtle corn flavor blended so well with the lightly sweetened red bean paste.
It was so good I instantly regretted not buying more to take home ๐
๐ถ️ New Menu Alert – Mala Dumplings!
I noticed they recently launched mala-flavored dumplings, which looked super tempting.
I didn’t try them this time, but they’re definitely on my radar for next visit — the spicy aroma was already calling to me!
๐ผ Cozy Retro Vibes with a Constant Flow of Visitors
The store is decorated with retro flair — think old-school toys, vintage signs, and photo-worthy corners.
It’s a throwback to simpler times, making it both charming and nostalgic.
When I visited, it wasn’t too crowded, but people were steadily coming in and out, picking up buns or just browsing.
You can really tell this place is a hidden favorite among those in-the-know.
๐ After a Walk by the Sea, Bring Home Some Jjinppang
Daebudo is known for its peaceful seaside walks, and nothing wraps up that moment better than a warm bun in hand.
