Tongje-yeong, the navy base, is the hometown of Chungmugong, whose name is originated from the government post name. In the sea in front of Hansan Island, you can see the site of the Hansandaecheop battle where Japanese troops were destroyed. In Tongyoung, the hometown of Lee Sunshin, you can meet another specialty, Lee Sunshin Course Meal.
Lee Sunshin Course Meal is the food of generals and navy soldiers at the time of Imjin Waeran, the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592. It's been changed toward our contemporary tastes.
Lee Sunshin Course Meal, Tongjesa Bapsang, and Goldongban, the first-grade cuisine. There are varieties of food which are made with marine products and vegetables from Tongyoung.
No artificial seasoning to revive the genuine taste of Korean food. It is green and well-being food seasoned with garlics, soy sauce, and enzyme sauces.
When you want a simple dish, I recommend Goldongban Bibimbap combining Jangguk Bap, the food of Deoksu Lee family, Tongyoung's marine products and vegetables. If you want a full course, Lee Sunshin Course Meal will do. It will provide you with seaweed Jeon (traditional pancake), pheasant Cheonggukjang (fast-fermented bean paste soup), and Bangpung Tanpyungchae.
A chance to feel the spirit and bravery of Chungmugong by the Gyunnaeryang sea where Hansandaecheop battle took place. Only in Tongyoung, you can experience this with food.
The soft, simple, and clean taste attracts me. Come to Tongyoung, the place of traditional food.
