Last December, controversy arose after a picture of the restaurant’s menu was posted on an online community. The restaurant, an unlimited refill meat restaurant, charged 16,900 for adults, 10,000 won for children aged 7-9, and 8,000 won for children aged 4-6.

However, a higher price of 19,900 won was set for ‘military service members’. Additional fees are known to have been charged not only to military personnel but also to their accompanying families.

When this fact became known, some netizens left reviews on map apps like “Is this a place that gets more money from military personnel?” and “What’s the difference between a grown man and a soldier?” and gave it the lowest rating.

At the time, the owner of restaurant A said through the media, “There is a military base about 10km away, and when the soldiers come, they eat a lot. It’s not a lie, they eat 5 portions a person and then leaves.” He explained, “We had other kids our age, so we said, ‘Eat a lot,’ but we couldn’t take it anymore,” adding, “There’s really nothing left to sell. “
