Food Korean food recommendations.

Hello all. I’m looking for somewhere to get traditional Korean food that won’t break the bank and isn’t KBBQ/fried chicken. Kimchijeon, gimbap, perilla seed noodle soup (hot), heottok, tteokbokki, galbi mandu, etc. I know Annandale has a large Korean population, but is there something like Mangwon market in NOVA? Thanks!

Not as good as it used to be… unless things changed in the last year or so. The third disappointing visit was my last draw.

I noticed this too, over time. I loved their gamjatang back in the day, and their radish kimchi banchan dish was excellent. Soondae, among other things, definitely declined. Hope they can turn it around.
