Last weekend, I visited 'Unbaemaru Charcoal Sauna' in Yangji-myeon, Cheoin-gu, Yongin, a unique sauna that promises to rejuvenate both body and mind. Have you heard about the trending 3-second pork belly?

Wooden shoes + thick socks are a must! Recommended to wear sleep socks purchased at the store or brought from home. At the fire pit area in front of the sauna, you can enjoy cozy moments while roasting potatoes and sweet potatoes—a delightful experience. 🥓 3-Second Pork Belly – The Culinary Highlight After Sauna • Available at the 2nd-floor restaurant starting at 12:00, with a minimum order of two servings. • Pork belly pre-grilled with charcoal heat, then cooked on the grill for just 3 seconds—a unique and flavorful experience! • Mackerel, soybean paste stew, and fried rice are also served, making for a hearty meal. This truly offers a combined 'sauna + dining' experience. 🛍️ Store & Tips for Bringing Items • Sells root crops (sweet potatoes, potatoes, chestnuts, rice cakes) and instant foods (sweet potatoes 1,500 KRW, rice cakes 2,500 KRW, etc.) • General food like kimbap and lunch boxes are prohibited, but root crops are allowed, so bringing them enhances the experience. • Large towels and sleep socks are essential. Rentals cost 4,000 KRW, which can feel wasteful. ⏰ Timing & Usage Tips • Weekday mornings or right after lunch are the least crowded and most comfortable. • Weekends or popular afternoon hours can be busy, so visiting early is recommended.
