Order the Woo-samgyeop. It is the beef cut Paik Jong-won developed himself and the dish the Bornga template is built around. Passing on it and grilling only standard cuts misses the whole point of eating at this specific chain.

The grill is in front of you, the menu is laid out in the Korean barbecue format, and you are at the Bangkok branch of Bornga, the Korean restaurant brand operated by The Born Korea, the Seoul-based food group founded by chef Paik Jong-won.

Paik, born in 1966, runs the parent company as CEO. The Born Korea operates more than two dozen restaurant concepts across 1,299 branches in Korea, and pushes a handful of them out as international brands. Bornga is the group's Korean-restaurant flagship abroad. The signature is Woo-samgyeop, a beef cut Paik developed himself as part of his work on bringing Korean cuisine to international markets. The kitchen template also leans on charcoal-grilled meats, kimchi stew, stone pot bibimbap, samgyetang, and japchae.

The Bangkok branch sits inside the Sukhumvit corridor in Watthana district. The venue is listed publicly as a Korean restaurant in this corridor and runs an official Instagram channel at the handle bornga_thailand, which is where new menu items and seasonal updates get posted.

This is a chain venue, not a one-off chef-owned room. The format is consistent across countries by design, and the appeal is that you are eating a Paik Jong-won barbecue template in Bangkok rather than a daily-changing kitchen. If you have eaten at a Bornga somewhere else, the Bangkok version is recognizably the same restaurant.

Come with at least one other person. The Woo-samgyeop is the cut to order on a first visit. Check the Instagram channel for current hours before you go.
