BRAND STORY

正熟成 — a promise in three characters

JUNG SOOK SUNG (正熟成) begins with a promise in three characters: to source honestly (正), to age with time (熟), and to finish with care (成).

Select Korean pork is treated in three stages — wet aging, light dry aging, and natural kelp aging — drawing out umami and a tender texture.

Honest sourcing

Integrity starts with the raw material. We bring in only carefully selected Korean pork, by standards we trust.

Aged with time

Aged with time

Wet and light dry aging plus natural kelp aging — a three-stage process that captures the umami and juiciness only time can build.

Grilled with care

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is JUNG SOOK SUNG?+

JUNG SOOK SUNG is a triple-aged Korean pork house with three locations — the Sharosu-gil flagship and Seodaemun in Seoul, and Sejong. AI-robot first-grilling and a smokeless downdraft roaster make for a refined, comfortable premium experience.

What is kelp aging?+

It is our signature three-stage process — wet aging and light dry aging, plus a natural kelp aging step — which deepens umami and preserves the meat's juices.

Is it really smoke-free?+

We use a downdraft roaster with no overhead smoke ducts, minimizing smoke and odor in the room. You can dine without worrying about smell on your clothes.

How do I make a reservation?+

Use the reserve button on each location to book or join the remote waitlist via Naver Booking or CatchTable. Options may differ by location.

Which location should I visit?+

The Sharosu-gil flagship is the AI-robot hotspot, Seodaemun fits groups and dinners with up to 70 seats, and Sejong is great for families with a kids' room.

Do you accept franchise inquiries?+

Yes. For franchise, new-location and ingredient-partnership inquiries, email us via the contact section below and our team will respond.

What does HQ support when you're preparing a store?+

[Turnkey] Training-fee waiver (the required hands-on store apprenticeship), real-estate & trade-area analysis, interior (incl. kitchen/hall layout), exterior (signage, etc.), supply vendors, plus the labor / tax / administrative professionals for business registration and financial-statement management — we provide the know-how and partners for every step of opening and operating. ※ Our members, alumni of Korea's No. 1 local consulting firm, work alongside certified partners at licensed real-estate brokerage, labor, accounting and law firms. [Self-managed] You may also source everything yourself, outside HQ's vendors. ※ That said, the items mandatory for opening and operating, and royalties, are agreed and explained item by item (required vs. recommended) at consultation and contract.
