At Gyeongju Silla Bansang Surime , our menu follows the essence of the Korean jeongsik — a traditional set meal that grows in richness with each course. Rather than offering separate dishes to choose from, we begin with one signature meal — the Master’s Red Snow Crab Sundubu Set — and build upon it with additional side dishes and seasonal delicacies. In Korean dining, a jeongsik is not served course by course, but as a complete table setting — warm rice, soup or stew, and a harmony of many small dishes, all served at once. It reflects the Korean philosophy of balance and togetherness, where every element complements the others. No matter which you choose, the essence remains the same — sincerity, harmony, and the quiet beauty of a shared table. - Master’s Red Snow Crab Soft Tofu Set (₩15,000) Surime’s signature and foundational set meal.

Hello,
This is Park Misuk, owner of Surime – Gyeongju Silla Table.
A Wedding, and the Beginning of a Family
On April 10th,
we experienced one of the most meaningful days of our lives.
It was the day our beloved daughter, Minseo,
began her new life with Johnny as husband and wife.
Their story began in a distant city—Melbourne.
Watching that journey come to such a beautiful and sincere moment
filled us, as parents, with deep gratitude and emotion.
This was not a wedding defined by luxury or grandeur,
but by something more lasting—genuine feeling.
The way they looked at each other,
the presence of both families standing together—
it reminded us what the word “family” truly means.
A Letter That Became a Bridge
One of the most touching moments came
from a letter written by Johnny’s parents.
“We are so happy to welcome Olivia (Minseo) into our family.”
In that single sentence,
we felt warmth, sincerity, and acceptance.
At that moment,
we realized that we were no longer two separate families,
but one.
Meeting Johnny’s parents,
sharing time together in Melbourne,
we began to understand each other beyond language and culture.
They told us how proud we must be of our daughter—
and how much they had already come to love her.
They described her as kind, thoughtful, intelligent,
and someone who deeply values family.
And in return,
we felt equally grateful to welcome Johnny
not just as a son-in-law,
but as a son.
The Reception: Becoming Closer
On April 11th, we held a reception.
The tension of the ceremony softened,
and what remained was laughter, conversation, and connection.
Though we came from different cultures and spoke different languages,
we felt something very clear:
That sincerity transcends all boundaries.
Sharing food, exchanging stories—
we became closer, naturally and without effort.
A Birthday That Felt Like Family
On April 12th,
we celebrated Johnny’s birthday.
This time, it felt different.
He was no longer simply “a son-in-law,”
but truly part of our family.
His first birthday with us
was more than a celebration—
it was a quiet confirmation that we had become one.
Seeing Johnny’s bright smile,
and Minseo’s happiness,
we felt there was nothing more we could wish for.
What This Time Meant to Us
Our time in Melbourne
was not just about a wedding.
It was not about sending off a daughter,
but about welcoming a son.
It was the process of two families becoming one.
As someone who runs Surime,
a place built on sincerity and care,
this experience reminded me of something essential:
What truly moves people
is not perfection,
but genuine heart.
A Message to Minseo and Johnny
Minseo, Johnny,
As you move forward in life together,
may you share your joys,
overcome your challenges side by side,
and always remain the warmest presence for each other.
We will always be here for you.
And to both families,
and to all the precious connections who made this time possible,
we offer our deepest gratitude.
