💡 A word from Jobploy
Cheonjangeo is a small-scale Korean restaurant primarily serving grilled eel and meals. If you are assigned to roles such as hall serving or kitchen assistance as a foreign worker, basic Korean communication skills necessary for interacting with Korean customers and a friendly service attitude are essential. Physical stamina is also required, as the work may involve physical labor such as preparing eels and managing the charcoal grill. Since it is a self-service system where customers grill the eels themselves, you will focus on basic restaurant duties such as setting and clearing tables and refilling side dishes.
