"When Kang Ho Dong Baekjeong opened in LA’s Koreatown 10 years ago, it revitalized a scene that had been languishing in the all-you-can-eat era of the aughts. Opened by one of South Korea’s most famous television hosts and comedians, the slot inside the historic Chapman Plaza brought energy and crowds to Koreatown, with fans aching for fresh cuts of galbi and prime outside skirt cooked with a combination gas and charcoal grill." - Matthew Kang
