Overview, Majangdong Daebo Food for Hanwoo Gift Set
Located about 50 meters from the northern public parking lot at Majangdong, Daebo Food is easily accessible. If you’re arriving by subway, it’s about a 7-8 minute walk from Exit 2 of Majang Station. The shop is busy, especially during the holiday seasons when Hanwoo gift sets are in high demand.

Since 1996, the shop has been managed by the same family for over 28 years. Now, the shop is run by the founders’ daughter, blending the traditional knowledge of her parents with modern marketing strategies to run the business. The fact that it’s a family-run operation spanning two generations gives it a sense of trust and reliability.

The shop has gained popularity not just with local customers but also with international visitors, as evidenced by the presence of foreign customers ordering items based on Instagram photos during my visit.
You can also visit Majangdong Livestock Market directly and consult with the knowledgeable staff to pick out the best Hanwoo for your needs. I did just that and ended up buying a Hanwoo assortment pack containing various cuts like ribeye, sirloin, and short ribs, along with an additional pack of short ribs.
Daebo Food’s Hanwoo assortment set is packaged fresh with a bright red color, showing just how fresh the meat is. The short ribs, packaged in vacuum-sealed bags, may appear a bit darker, but once you open the packaging, they regain their beautiful red hue, ensuring top quality.
Where to Enjoy Your Purchase at Majangdong Livestock Market:
While you can certainly enjoy your Hanwoo at home, sometimes it’s easier to have it grilled and served right away. Daebo Food recommended a nearby place called “Majang Meat Village,” where you can enjoy the Hanwoo you just purchased.
If you want to avoid dealing with the hassle of grilling at home, or you simply prefer having it prepared for you, this is a great option. Many places within Majangdong Livestock Market have a similar setup, where you can buy meat downstairs and grill it upstairs.
After getting our Hanwoo assortment and ribs, we settled into the hall seating, where they set up a charcoal grill for us. For just 7,000 KRW per person, you can enjoy your Hanwoo in a cozy setting with all the basics provided.
What makes Daebo Food’s Hanwoo special is the quality – it’s a top-tier Grade 9 beef, known for its high marbling. The rib cuts, arranged beautifully in a heart shape, were especially memorable.
Cooking premium Hanwoo is an art. You only need to flip it once and then enjoy it with a touch of salt or wasabi for the best flavor. As soon as the Hanwoo melts in your mouth, you understand why this is considered the best Korean beef.
