Ssukgogae is a Korean and Western fusion restaurant situated at the beginning of Syarosu-gil. The standout menu item is the tong samgyeop kimchi jjim (braised whole pork belly with kimchi), a robust and spicy dish prepared with whole pork belly and soft bean curd. Another crowd-pleaser is the chicken cheongyang cream pasta (deep-fried chicken and cheongyang chili pepper cream pasta), featuring crispy fried shrimp and deep-fried chicken generously layered on soy cream sauce. The waffle gamja jeon (potato pancake), crispy and adorned with grated grana padano cheese, also earns acclaim. Nearby attractions encompass Nakseongsan Mountain, Nakseongdae Park, and Gwaneumsa Temple.

Of the Four Great Gates (Sukjeongmun, Namdaemun, Dongdaemun, and Seodaemun), established by King Taejo in 1396, Sukjeongmun is called the north gate.

Located to the north of Seoul, this gate, with Gyeongbokgung Palace in the center and Changaemun (Jahamun) to the right, make up the wings of the north gate. Due to the possible danger of the area being damaged from all the pedestrians, the king in 1413 planted pine trees and prohibited passing this area. Henceforth, Sukjeongmun became a scenic walkway until the North Korean Communist infiltration of 1968, which prohibited the passing of all civilians.

The reopening of Sukjeongmun in April of 2006 has led to the opening of Bugaksan Mountain in April of 2007 and is in the process of dividing it into 3 courses. Bugaksan Mountain has been kept well-preserved due to a long period of restriction in this area, and if you climb the mountain, you will be able to see all of Seoul.
