If you're a fan of Korean cuisine, there is one more spot in town you can consider checking out this August.

Korean restaurant Gwanghwamun Mijin will be opening its first Singapore outlet at Far East Square on Aug. 22.

Opened in 1954, the restaurant is best known for its traditional Korean-style cold buckwheat noodles served with a rich dipping broth.

Its flagship outlet in Seoul usually sees snaking queues during peak hours.

Listed on the Michelin Guide Seoul since 2018, the restaurant has earned the Michelin Bib Gourmand nod for eight consecutive years.

The Singapore store will mark its first overseas outlet outside of Korea.
