"A long-running Koreatown restaurant taken over by the current owner in 1998 (family involvement dating back to the 1980s) that has suffered a steep decline in revenue as catering and corporate lunch business evaporated. The owner has drastically cut staff, keeping a couple employees on reduced hours and minimum wage so they can bring food home, and often works alone 12–13 hour days; despite the strain, the family emphasizes pride in continuing a decades-old culinary legacy." - Jenny G.
