A Food Spot Loved by Annie Family (K-pop Royalty & Billionaires)
A Food Spot Connected to Korea’s Power Family 👑
Minjeong Restaurant is featured on the “Jung Yong-jin Food List”, a collection of restaurants that started as an internal project among Emart employees—the largest supermarket chain in Korea under Shinsegae Group.
⚠️ While this list isn’t personally curated by Jung Yong-jin himself (Vice Chairman of Shinsegae and one of Korea’s most influential billionaires), it’s become a trusted guide among Koreans. Why? Because it reflects insider picks from Emart staff all over the country, gathering their favorite local spots into one Excel file on the company intranet.
Why Koreans Trust This “Unofficial Pick” 🌟
🏢 Who’s behind it?
Shinsegae Group, often called “Korea’s Walmart”, runs Emart supermarkets and Starfield malls across the nation. Jung Yong-jin, a billionaire tycoon and known foodie, inspired Emart employees to create this internal list to spotlight authentic Korean flavors.
💡 Why it matters:
Even though it’s not a “billionaire’s handpicked list,” Koreans trust it as an insider’s guide to hidden gems nationwide.
🍲 What to try here?
Beef & Bone Broth Hotpot (Suyuk Jeongol) – simmered in broth for a deeper flavor and incredibly tender meat.
