№ 02 · Aging
One idea holds this Itaewon Korean BBQ together: aging. 480 hours of cross-aging is where we think a serious Itaewon restaurant has to begin.

CHAPTER · 01
The promise printed across the top of our menu board is literal: every cut at Kim Sukseong Itaewon goes through dry aging and wet aging in turn. Dry to drive off moisture and concentrate flavour, wet to hold the juices in — 480 hours on the same piece of meat. It is the reason guests who judge Itaewon restaurants by their aging keep coming back.
CHAPTER · 02
Aged pork neck goes on the grill at a full 2cm. Cut it thinner and the juice that 480 hours built up simply runs out onto the plate. Our Kimsukseong Special sets put that thick-cut neck alongside limited-run aged pork belly, gabrisal and special cuts — one grill that explains why this ranks among Itaewon restaurants worth the trip.
CHAPTER · 03
Pork is Korean Han-don, beef is Hanwoo — nothing else, and the origin line is printed at the bottom of our board for anyone to check. Kim Sukseong Itaewon is also open 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Late at night or before sunrise, aged Korean BBQ is three minutes from Itaewon Station — rare even among Itaewon restaurants.
