How to order Address & map

Namyang Susan (남양수산) is a small raw-fish restaurant in Seongsan, on Jeju Island, and reviewers keep naming the same dishes: hoe (회), raw fish sliced to order, and jiri (지리), a mild, milky-white fish soup. Blog posts say there are no starters, only the fish, leaves and sauces. My photos are from June 2022; the prices and hours below come from listings and blog posts written between 2020 and 2026, each dated where it appears.

The sashimi: thin slices, nothing extra

On the white oval plate in my photo, the fish is cut into thin slices with the skin left on, and several slices show pink streaks. It looks like chamdom (참돔), the sea bream that Polle reviewers and the blogs praise most at Namyang Susan, though a photo cannot confirm the species. Namyang Susan's other order in the posts is godeungeo-hoe (고등어회), mackerel sashimi. A July 2025 blogger who ordered the sea bream says it is sliced thin and piled on without decoration, and lists the basic sides as cucumber, wasabi, soy sauce, chojang (초장), a sweet-sour chili sauce, garlic, chili peppers, house soybean paste, lettuce and perilla leaves, with refills available.

Yachaebap, the vegetable rice, and a wrap

Yachaebap (야채밥), vegetable rice, is the add-on reviewers recommend. A July 2025 blogger says the bowl holds the vegetables, the rice arrives separately in an instant-rice container, and you mix your own bowl. A blogger who posted in February 2026 about an April trip added leftover fish, chili-vinegar sauce and sesame oil, then stirred.

The jiri soup that ends the meal

In my photo the two-handled pot holds a milky broth with green chili slices, white radish and pieces of fish. A jiri is not the red, spicy maeuntang (매운탕). A blogger who posted in February 2026 about an April trip says Namyang Susan sends the soup out with the sashimi order and calls it mild, built on the taste of the fish. A May 2020 blogger was served a white-broth soup after the sashimi and notes that you can ask for chili powder to turn it red.

Prices and the wait

Polle's listing, checked on November 15, 2026, shows Namyang Susan's sea bream at ₩60,000 (small), ₩70,000 (medium) and ₩80,000 (large), and its mackerel sashimi at ₩60,000. Namyang Susan's hall is small: a July 2025 blogger guessed four or five tables, waited about an hour at around 6 p.m., and suggests takeout. A Polle reviewer says Namyang Susan takes takeout orders by phone.
